Disquiet Junto Project 0301: Parts > Sum

Disquiet Junto projects

recorded each track 30 seconds with AudioShare, build two Samplr Sets one with 6, the other with 4 samples, played Samplr sets through strymon BigSky and recorded in Cubase.
Have fun!

Ran`s Sum (disquiet0301)

My contribution to the disquiet junto 0301
the task was to create a 5 minute piece using sounds from  Lee Rosevere´s wonderful meditative ambient album "5 minute meditations", making it even more ethereal and meditative

6.10.17 W:I:L - Timeless Astral Beauty[disquiet0301]

Constant live mixing.  I altered individual track volumes way down to varying degrees, and made the track panning more extreme.  Near the end of the piece I faded out some tracks before others.

Overall, I think it's very "smoothed out", which I like, and that dissonant patch near the middle provides some interesting flavor.

301 (disquiet0301)

Disquiet Junto Project 0301: Parts > Sum

Comprised of tracks 1 to 10 of Lee Rosevere's album "5 Minute Meditations". Layering and effects (the wonderful Glitchmachines FractureXT, Eventide UltraReverb, Pecheneg Tremolo, dfx Buffer Override and Transverb, D16 Antresol and Decimort, SoundToys Filter Freak), and six instances of Ableton Simpler. Maybe not quite fitting the Junto brief, I struggled to make something yet more minimal than Lee's gorgeous modulations, so I threw caution to the wind with this one, and worked with the source material as best I could...

Hope you enjoy...

Lee's River (disquiet0301)

Imported 10 tracks to Audacity. Panned each track and exported.

Meditation Rosevere [Disquiet0301]

I took a granular approach: I ran eight of the ten tracks through The Mangle's eight slots, and the other two tracks through Kaivo. Plenty of reverb was applied, then the resulting recording was run through Argotlunar with another generous dose of reverb.

Sounds From 2017 (disquiet0313)

In Audacity, I opened two “ice in a glass” files recorded for last year’s Cold Start project. I removed silence between ice clinks and selected eight seconds from each file, then combined those into one stereo file. I loaded that file into Kaivo’s granulator section and patched things until it sounded interesting to me. I saved the Kaivo patch, then opened it inside of Obscurium. I adjusted Obscurium’s sequencer settings until I liked the result, then recorded Obscurium’s sequencer driving Kaivo’s sounds while I played some notes. With that result loaded in a track, I rolled off the lowest and highest frequencies, then applied three modulated effects from Unfiltered Audio: Dent 2 for crunchiness, Zip for compression, and Sandman Pro for some delay. That result was treated with volume modulation from ShaperBox, reverb from ValhallaRoom, and some ReaXcomp to glue things together. Finally, I added some pan modulation with ShaperBox, then trimmed and normalized in Audacity.

Ice In Glass (disquiet0314)

I just got Bitwig Studio, and this is my first track created with it. (The tempo is 100 bpm, in case anyone wants to add to it.)

Pachyderm Parade (disquiet0315)

I was intrigued by La Cosa Preziosa’s track “Moving Chairs” (https://soundcloud.com/lacosapreziosa/moving-chairs), so in Bitwig Studio, I added sounds made with a custom Kaivo patch, with various parameters modulated by a sidechain of the original track. Unfiltered Audio’s Dent and Zip were used for grit and texture, ValhallaRoom for reverb, and Audacity for final trims and normalization.

Moving Chairs, Plus One (disquiet0316)

I used a random number generator and got 6, which pointed me to https://soundcloud.com/ethanhein/plucks-and-hand-drums-disquiet0316, which was created by adding to https://soundcloud.com/moduspony/left-chair-disquiet0315. I created a custom patch for Glitchmachines’ Cataract and used a sidechain from the original to modulate some of its parameters and duck the volume, then ran the output through Unlimited limiter, Bitwig’s Resonator Bank and Pitch Shifter, Unfiltered Audio’s Dent 2, and ValhallaRoom reverb.
