This track follows the suggestion of the Disquiet Junto Project 0560: 
Participate in the open contest to develop of a “sound logo” for Wikimedia (see https://soundlogo.wikimedia.org/).

I thought of noises and melodies which are symbols for the world and all there is to know about. This highly objective and personal miniature compositions that was created is not meant to be a promising candidate in the contest but my personal view of the world, summarised in 4 seconds.

Consequently the artwork was chosen from Wikimedia (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/a/a8/Morris_Woodpecker_tapestry_detail.jpg)

Disquiet Junto Project 0561: Samplelicker
The Assignment: Rework environmental sound recordings with Aphex Twin’s new software.

Step 1: There’s a new piece of freely available software called Samplebrain. It was designed by Aphex Twin and developed by Dave Griffiths of Then Try This. Download Samplebrain and read up at:

https://gitlab.com/then-try-this/samplebrain 11

Step 2: Create a piece of music using Samplebrain. For source audio, only use sounds tagged “bird” or “rain” or “night” from freesound.org 4. Use as many as you like. Be sure to credit the source material when posting your finished track.

Track notes: 

I decided to use only two samples for this samplebrain composition: "Rain.wav" from idomusics as my 'brain' sound and the delightfully named "French men in the deep night.wav" from satoration as my target. 

Having been listening to a lot of Rolf Julius' small music lately, I'm impressed with the variances in pitch and dynamic to these textures and how interesting they might sound broadcast at very low volumes or with the stereo field separated out. I'm looking forward to experimenting more with the app!

Using Samplebrain I loaded seven clips of bird sounds from my own recordings with a short percussion track as the 'target'.

naviarhaiku456 – The spring sea

The spring sea:
all day long
undulating, undulating.

One of the four great haiku masters, Yosa Buson studied both Japanese and Chinese poetry. He was also an accomplished painter, and most of his poems were accompanied by paintings, resulting in a more diverse and individual set of works than the one by his main historical influence, Basho.

Record something to help someone fall asleep


This track I created today is supposed to help somebody fall asleep *and* have nightmares. That's licit right?

I had this piano track recorded this summer using a guitar pick on my upright piano, along with some regularly played notes and chords. Very simple , very spacious and lovely natural sound.
Just added some synth noises and Valhalla Supermassive. Easy and rewarding Thursday afternoon.
Cheers

Out Cold ( Station to Station Remix ) - disquiet0562

Arguably reaching its peak before it became overground, the period of the posthumously named Digital Magickal Realism movement (1988-1993)was mercifully brief. Seeking to fill the ritualistic and shamanistic gaps where the first incarnation of Psychic TV left off, after moving on allegedly invent acid house.

Pioneered by idle white boy late teenagers from the midlands in England, with Tascam Porta Ones and Elka synths, the cassette spools were left to run on record capturing wandering improvisations, while the protganists were busy reading the early Neil Gaiman DC comic books, hence this relatively obscure genre's name. 

Typical to the production would be sparseness of sound, leaving the mistakes in, and percussion making itchy sounds that were panned to the left and the right, not quite right sounding, like something in the corner of your eye.

Seminal musicians of the genre would be Lenny Claves and Damian Deviant, the latter's 'Plain Pandora' acknowledged as the most influential of the genre's output. With Lenny and Damian having to get jobs, respectively, in a record shop and a music examiner's office, the Digital Magickal Realism oeuvre pretty much died out, leaving scant impression behind.
