Disquiet Junto Project 0701: Gap Ear
The Assignment: Break apart a piece of music and fill the resulting spaces.

Step 1: Choose a piece of music (whether your own or something in the public domain) and break it into sequential pieces. You might do this to a recording, or you might place gaps between parts of a notated melody (just to provide two different ways this instruction might be interpreted).

Step 2: Now, fill the various gaps, however many there may be, resulting from Step 1.

Deadline: Monday, June 9, 2025, 11:59pm (that is: just before midnight) wherever you are.

Prompt 701 of the Disquiet Junto had us break a piece of music into segments and fill the gaps with something new,

My contribution is an interpretation of Scelsi's "Quattro Pezzi su una nota sola", its four pieces interrupted by narrative interstitials. Features ebow on slide steel, piano, and organic vocals. The script was adapted from https://www.allmusic.com/composition/mc0002378353.

An original electronic sequence split into nine sections with gaps between. The gaps are filled in with clips from other original tracks selected more or less at random, with cross-fading for smooth transitions.
