Disquiet Junto Project 0617: Haunt Scape
The Assignment: Halloween is coming up. Do your thing.

In the haunting shadows of a disquiet Halloween, I craved a genuine fright, so I summoned an 8-track version of Bitwig with a cruel code from the sinister pages of "ComputerMusic" magazine (August 2023). Since that blood-curdling Superbooth 23 affair, the eerie Cthulhu call of this DAW has haunted my dreams, yet the terrifying thought of the time needed for mastering IT always kept me at bay. Now, having dared to dance with this phantom... it's eerily … but okay. Alas, this 8-track version, drained by nocturnal vampires, has had many of its limbs horrifically amputated. Thus, even armed with my trusty modular hatchet, it's hard to gauge if braving this ghostly realm is worth it. Be that as it may, a few nocturnal samples, mummified synths, and a disemboweled Lyra8 impro might not raise the dead from the graves, but together they gave me some creeps. (A little bit.)

The result of my text to voice experiment was, apart from a few recognisable words & phrases, total gibberish, made worse by the apparently inevitable North American intonation, which is hardly appropriate in this case.  I used a random article from an old local newspaper & the first online software I came across. I added a touch of echo to the voice track & combined it with a sequence of electronic sounds.

Disquiet Junto Project 0618: Burying the Lede
The Assignment: Turn old news into new music.

I googled for local newspapers from 1973 and found a review of a Pink Floyd concert (Dark Side Of The Moon, which is one of only a small number of CDs I still own) in Munich on Oct 15th 1973 in the daily newspaper Süddeutsche Zeitung. I used some middle part of the review, which describes the sound and talks about how Pink Floyd integrates noise in music. I used ttsmp3.com to read it in bad german. I added the speech to a ambience layer that has something of a concert atmo and of something nois-ish, both not well integrated.

The 1973 newspaper I found was this:
https://www.pulse-and-spirit.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/PF-1973-Munich.jpg - the article was written by journalist Michael Frank, who must then have been around 26 (and still wrote for the same newspaper some years ago). Today we might no longer imagine, what kind of ultra hot shit this album must have been at that time.

Die Fahrt Der Galaktischen Riesen [disquiet0618]

An electronic composition, sounds from various sources.

Mountain Gale (naviarhaiku514)

From a simple start to a complex rhythm - this track slowly builds a complex beat from scratch - as suggested by the Disquiet Junto Project 0619.

There's no need for percussions to do this - the beat is mainly built with orchestral instruments, adding layer by layer, but electronic and other instruments also join in.

In my track https://soundcloud.com/rabmusiclab/deconstructivism-explained the process runs backwards, starting with the complete, complex rhythm and removing layer by layer to deconstruct it.
