week2

Börsen blev nervös efter förra veckans svaga NFP-siffra som kom in rejält under estimat och faktiskt kvalar in som den tredje sämsta missen någonsin. Men vad är narrativet? Bad News is Good News? Mycket möjligt att marknaden nu börjar tro att FED:s tapering skjuts på framtiden, men oavsett är det ju inte enorma stödköp som skapar långsiktigt aktieägarvärde, även om det skapar brus på kort sikt. Dessutom ett trevligt nyhetssvep.

Delikat lyssning på dig,
Nicklas

Episod 215 - Svag NFP-siffra gjorde marknaden nervös

Created for the Disquiet Junto Project 0507: In DD's Key of C
@disquiet

The Project: Make music with 10 acoustic instrument samples all in a shared key.

Thank you to @daniel-diaz for the beautiful samples!

I was inspired by the chord progression in the melodica sample, so I used that as a base to created a rhythmically-shifting generative drone in the Borderlands Granular app on my iPad, eventually using all 10 of the samples. It was a fun challenge mapping the patchwork of waveforms across the screen so that I could trigger different parts of overlapping samples with various moving 'circles' of granular processing. The end result came out rather lilting and mysterious.

Please enjoy the waves!

Artwork is by Daniel Diaz - his notes from creating the samples.

Among the four great masters of Japanese haiku, Issa was the most prolific: during his lifetime he wrote over 20,000 haiku, hundreds of tanka, and several haibun.

What Isn't said

New (prod. MARZO)

For the conceptualization, I wanted to make a piece about different perspectives - how the “same story” can be told by different people and vary slightly or a lot.

There’s a tweak on the melody line “D E G E D C D E A” and this drop to the lower A can be A, A-flat, or G interchangeably. So, the accompanying bass line “C B A G” also changes from all natural to “C B natural or flat, A natural or flat, G” as well. The bass solo in the middle is, lol, I don’t know. I just felt like it. Does it work?

The title “Heron in moonlight” comes from the zen saying 銀椀盛雪、明月蔵鷺 (ぎんわんにゆきをもり めいげつにろをかくす) - Silver bowl full of snow, white heron in clear moonlight.

It’s the juxtaposition of things that look the same and seem to blend in but that are actually different. The snow may look like a part of the silver bowl, and the bowl may look like snow itself. A white heron in the bright moonlight may look like the moonlight itself, or is it the other way around?

The philosophized perspective of the saying might infer the natural vs. the manmade coming together, different groups of people coming together in harmony, etc.
