Clipo Quarks - Le souffle de l'apparence (Braille Blow Rmx)

FAKTOR4 -  Blair Fae (Senglar V2 Remix)

Simplest approach without knowing what happens:
used tempo app on iPad (tempo 22 bpm, because it's still 22), played 5 6 7 eighth beats, sent the whole thing through microcosm and recorded in TE TX-6 mixer
Mastering and mixing in ableton live.

I always look forward to the beginning of the year when this project comes around.  This year I used this piece as a study for a much larger work - specifically using it as a way to experiment with a complex scripting language I have built on top of the RTcmix (www.rtcmix.org) scripting language, MinC.
My scripts allow me to create algorithmic musical patterns in a large number of dimensions:  volume, pitch, sample selection, tempo, placement in a simulated room-space etc.  Each dimension can be moved about in via an algorithmic plug-in, for example, random choice, sequential access, fixed value, etc.
The Psychedelic Ice Machine uses three sets of ice sound samples I have recorded over the years.  The score loops, creating an ever-changing set of patterns.  The relationship between these is sometimes clear and sometimes obscured.

The Psychedelic Ice Machine

The Psychedelic Ice Machine [disquiet0575]

Tomorrow will bring something new, so leave today as a memory

Ambient Music 6

Using the drip from a spout recorded in Helsinki:
https://soundcloud.com/disquiet/helsinki-downspout
Record an original piece of music for which the provided music is the underlying rhythm.

Using Ableton Beatseeker M4L device, I locked in to the beat of the drips.
https://www.ableton.com/en/packs/beatseeker/.

You'll feel the track tempo follow the drip, it's close to 131 BPM, but varies with each drip. The magic of brownian motion and chaos.

To the drip sample, I added Mr. Wiggly's Incinerator. 

Dominic Hawken, aka Mr. Wiggly, passed away Monday, 6 February 2023. 
Dominic touched so many people lives, with his joie de vivre. A truly inspirational man, he made being a great guy seem effortless. I didn't know him, only from his channel, SonicTalk, ProSynthNetwork channel, and his relationship with Kent - "Kent Spong, can you tell me what's wrong?". 

God bless Mr. Wiggly and his family.
