A sublime addition that works perfectly! Beautifully played! Love it!

An original field recording made with stones & pebbles on the shore, with additional feedback.

The Loneliest Number Part 1/3 (disquiet0591)

Disquiet Junto Project 0591: The Loneliest Number
The Assignment: Record the first third of a trio.

Experimenting a bit more with feedback after last week’s DisquietJunto.
From a longer recording of these experiments I stitched together different sections, choosing mainly ones that were relatively sparse, in order to leave room for more layers.

Practical info: Although the use of envelopes and filters makes the sounds mostly percussive, I did use specific notes/chords to create them, and so it may be useful to know these:
Am7 (a-c-e-g); B/A (a-d#-f#-b); G+/A (a-b-d#-g). Notes are from the A dorian #4 scale (mode of E harm minor).
The tempo is 78.5 bpm.

A second contribution to this project. I downloaded the track by OhWell & halF unusual (https://soundcloud.com/half-unusual/half-better-disquiet0592-collaboration-with-ohwell?), & added some extra electronic noise.

All Better - with OhWell & halF unusual (disquiet0593)

I really admire the direction that @encym took the @noodletwister and @sinnysounds collaboration. I took the three iterations and panned them on Audacity, then used effects and fade. Here's what transpired.

Disquiet Junto Project 0602: Choice Words
The Assignment: Make a piece of music that strives to express a specific word.

Step 1: Choose a word — either a favorite word, or one at random from a dictionary, a book your reading, or any such source.

Step 2: Compose a short piece of music that expresses that word as best you can. Perhaps it communicates an underlying concept, or follows the shape of the word when spoken, or utilizes it as an extremely short lyric. Come up with your own approach, which might be determined by the word, rather than imposed on the word.

I have 2 deadlines next week so have been working a lot of extra hours.  Resigned myself that I probably wasn't going to make it this week, but if I did -- it would have to be FAST.  

This gave me the idea that my word would be "jaunt" -- something light and bouncy and upbeat; a break between work sessions.  I found a bit of time this warm, rainy morning and got a couple short sequences going along these lines...

I felt tired and not at all looking forward to starting work again soon.  I just wanted a bit of peace.  Decided to slow everything down, add a field recording of the outside sounds, and plink about a bit on the piano.  My word is "respite."

Disquiet0602 - Respite

This track was inspired by the Disquiet Junto Project 0605 which simply states: "Compose a piece of music with as much silence as notes."

After some thought I created this track. There are many instruments and sounds, but they all play the same notes in unison at the same time.
The sections of pause (there is no silence in this track) are as long as the sections in where the instruments are playing. I also tried to keep the number of notes to a minimum, only 15 notes are played in this track.

[disquiet0616] Contrast

a trio with my contribution to the disquiet0473 collaboration by halF unusuaL https://soundcloud.com/half-unusual/half-placebo-disquiet0473-with-analoc on the basis of analoc's original track https://soundcloud.com/analoc/whatever-comes-disquiet0472

I love the enigmatic feel of their piece, with the space and balance of clear and dirty tones. After listening many times I picked up my violin and recorded a some melodic improvisations -- six takes, here edited to one voice.
