an autumn nightfall
the skeleton of a huge fish
drawn back by the sea.

by: Saitō Sanki

Saitō Sanki (1900 – 1962) was a dentist who discovered his passion for haiku poetry in his mid-thirties, when his colleagues at the hospital in Soto Kanda convinced him to write a haiku for a collection. Later, he became one of the most important exponents of wartime haiku: he was imprisoned in 1940 during the government’s World War II persecution of controversial artists, and was officially forbidden to write until the end of the war.

02 Interlude (Granules)

Part 3 of the Disquiet asynchronous trio collaboration. The glitchy percussion was created by @jasonW22, the tonal parts were created by @Yasha, and I added the bass parts (Eurorack synth and electric bass)to round out the trio!

We added some looping piano and guitar, with a hint of granulation. Placed in the center of the mix, with analoc and K Joule panned hard L and R (not necessarily in that order).

Whatever and ever, trio by analoc/K Joule/The Land [disquiet0474]

Submission for Disquiet0474 - took Matt Madden's and Chris Ledwidge's quite beautiful piano and guitar duet (https://soundcloud.com/mattmadd/duo-jet-no-34-in-a-minor-disquiet0473) and attacked it with a distorted organ drone.

Disquiet Junto Project 0474: Police Action (3 or 3)
The Assignment: Complete a trio by adding a track to an existing duet by two other musicians.

Step 1: This week’s Disquiet Junto project is the third in a sequence that encourages and rewards asynchronous collaboration. This week you will be adding music to a pre-existing track, which you will source from the previous week’s Junto project (disquiet.com/0473). Note that you are finishing a trio — you’re creating the third part of what two previous musicians created. Please keep this in mind.

Step 2: The plan is for you to record an original piece of music, on any instrumentation of your choice, as a complement to a pre-existing track.

This was the basic track used by me:

The Third Man (disquiet0474) feat. vgmrmojo and joyneski

Using an envelope follower following the earlier two tracks, I separately recorded, on my modular, a sine wave and a distorted square wave. These were then further manipulated in Ableton. In addition, an instance of Audio Damage's, Phosphor 3 was added playing a MIDI extraction of the square wave's output.

Embedded Extra (disquiet0474)

This is a submission for the Disquiet Junto 0474: Police Action

I built this track from the excellent collaboration of @daniel-diaz and @forcedamage from Junto 0473. Respect.

Fifths Damage (https://soundcloud.com/daniel-diaz/fifths-damage-21012021-disquiet0473) had a very strong western feel, and also a feeling of being balanced between sentiment and action. We are each trapped in a dynamic equilibrium that gets us through the day, but the ground is shifting and the system is out of balance. The Ostrich is one of the last remaining flightless birds; surely that is not our fate? Make a plan.

I added a rhythm track to what I received, starting with the output form the Logic Drummer in hip-hop mode and then editing the results until they locked to the groove that was there, choosing a nice acoustic kit emulation, and running the track through a Fatso EL7X. Other tools used included a coles 4038, an iphone, Phil Moore's excellent Retro PowerStrip, an A&H board, Valhalla plugins, and Ozone for a quick and dirty mastering pass.

The lyrics came from the feeling above, and from fighting off stockholm syndrome from all the decades since Reagan and Thatcher.

The samples are from the 'crying indian' public service announcement of the last century, and the extinction rebellion of this century.
