Disquiet Junto Project 0584: Generations

The Assignment: Bridge a gap in your musical taste.

Step 1: Think of a sort of music you enjoy now that a much younger you might not have.

Step 2: Think of a sort of music that younger you enjoyed that you no longer are as fond of.

Step 3: Compose a piece of music that bridges the gap or otherwise finds common ground between the two types of music from Step 1 and Step 2.

. . .

Deadline: This project’s deadline is the end of the day Monday, March 13, 2023, at 11:59pm (that is, just before midnight) wherever you are. It was posted on Thursday, March 9, 2023.

Generations

Disquiet Junto | Generations - disquiet0584

Instrumental cue, hybrid jazz-rock

Recorded February 2023, mixed Friday 10th march 2023.


Live studio  improvisation with Miguel Yanover on sax (@yanomito), I played a nylon-string electric bass.
We jammed over a pre recorded (by me) drum track and later I overdubbed a Hammond Organ trying to save this one from the trash lid.

Still, even if I love the live sax and bass interplay, this is a great candidate to be a  "forever unused" track. So I'm glad to mix it this morning and share it here.

Cheers

Nocturnal Studio Jam Number 2 (disquiet0584)

Beethoven gradually transformed. The original is a 1938 Columbia recording of the Rondo from Piano Quartet in E flat major, op 16, performed by Robert Schmitz & the Roth Quartet, chosen at random & downloaded from the Internet Archive.

Deromanticizing (disquiet0584)

Like most lads growing up in the late 70’s the guitar was the king of instruments and like most of my peers I worshiped at the various alters of the guitar gods. Here, subtlety was not a requirement and the louder and the more over produced the better. 

But then I graduated, went to university, read Deleuze and soon was grooving to the likes of Nurse With Wound, Throbbing Gristle, Brian Eno and Einsturzende Neubauten. I made music on tape machines, combed back alleys for old duct work to bring to my dorm room so that I could hook them up to contact mics and generally found pleasure in the obscure and at times unlistenable. 

Hence my homage and mangling of Boston’s “More than a Feeling,” which I would not listen to now. Although I would listen to listen to a cover of it by Genesis P-Orridge.

A note on method:

I sampled various bits of the song on a Music1010 BitBox, then sent various excerpts into Meng Qi’s Winger Pinger and recorded that. Then I randomly selected parts of that recording and sampled them with a Polyend Tracker, used the random fill and note section to jumble the samples and then played the whole thing through the Zoia to further chop and process it and recorded it once more. 

And true to the era, instead of just one song, I have created a concept album. So there are nine songs, all around 30 seconds long. Each one is less or more than a feeling I once had.

Luke John Ingram - Swing (2025) Luke Ingram

swing Zz Nir wait II wav final (Remix) (2) (Remix)

Re-issue. First released in 2024 under the artist profile "Songsforsale.ai".
A man has never known his father.
Again and again he questions his mother
about those old holiday pictures of hers.
Is one of these guys his father?

Only a few true Stories

A smooth holiday escape wrapped in velvet tones and warm December glow.

Jazzy Little Christmas is a cozy collection of holiday originals that blend festive charm with a touch of late-night lounge magic. These songs drift between soft piano glimmer, upright bass sway, brushed-drum shimmer, and the gentle kiss of winter melodies that feel like stepping into a candle-lit jazz club after the first snowfall.

Each track brings its own mood —
🎷 a little swing,
🎹 a little sentiment,
🌙 a little nostalgia,
✨ and a whole lot of heart.

From slow-dancing under twinkle lights to sipping cocoa by the fire, this album celebrates the quieter side of Christmas — the memories, the longing, the joy, the softness, and the small moments we hold onto all our lives.

This is holiday music for dreamers, night owls, and anyone who loves December wrapped in warmth and wonder.

New York Is My Winter Wonderland


من روائع السيدة فيروز - مرفرف الدلال , تراه

مرفرف الدلال هواه أُنس الليال
تراه يهوى الجمالى
تراه تراه تراه
الفاتر الجفون فداه دمع العيون
تراه يدري حنيني
تراه تراه تراه
يا ساحر الأغاني وحبي ولحني
مرت بنا الأماني وقلبى يغني
هواك يا أميري غدير حلو العبور
تراه يسقى زهوري
تراه تراه تراه
=====================

فيروز زعلي طول أنا وياك ـ تسجيل نقي

My 33 1/3 series book about the Aphex Twin album <i>Selected Ambient Works Volume II</i> was published in 2014. The book was one of the top 5 bestselling titles for the calendar year, and in 2015 was ranked by Pitchfork as one of the "33 best" of the 100-plus books in the 33 1/3 series. It has subsequently been translated into Japanese (2019) and Spanish (2018)

Since 2012 I have moderated the Disquiet Junto group, which began on SoundCloud. More at disquiet.com/junto. 

I've written for Nature, Pitchfork, The Wire, Down Beat, Boing Boing, NewMusicBox, Red Bull Music Academy, Art Practical, the website of The Atlantic, and many other publications. 

I've exhibited sound art at galleries in Los Angeles (Crewest), Manhattan (apex art), and Dubai (DUTAC), and I had a audio-visual installation at the San Jose Museum of Art as part of its 45th anniversary.

And since 1996 I've run the website Disquiet.com about the intersection of sound, art, and technology.
