Loaded 2 of Daniel's samples the Hang drum and the bass guitar into Ableton's drum rack and used the Max4Live Turing Machine to trigger them randomly. Using 'slice to new midi track' I cut up the piano sample to another instance of Drum rack and also used Turing Machine to trigger that, slowly adjusting the amount of randomness so that certain loops would repeat as I was rendering it out to audio. Finally, adding a high pad sound from Arturia SQ80V

Field Recording captured by Leslie Rollins (337is).

A migrating flock of Canada geese surprised and delighted me when I was in the field capturing video footage of a pond surface near my home in Alfred New York. I didn't have my rig completely set up and ready when I began to hear them coming in the distance and kicked into audio field recording mode with the gear I had. The video is rough as a result, and the audio is a bit as well. But, it captures the moment nicely with their sounds and splashing echoing off the surface of the water.

rupture

I took a one-second sine tone, made it a stereo track, extended it it to 65 seconds using both stretching (which causes the fluttering) and tempo adjustment (which causes the breakup at the ends).

Then duplicated it a tone lower with about a 20 second overlap.

Probably could have been much shorter…

kyrye

This track started out as an experiment on the number 2600 and the concept of "phreaking" as suggested by the Disquiet Junto Project 0542 (see below).

But as the music developped these initial inspirations were lost, and the track evolved into a description of the happy state of being boarded by a pirate of love - a pirate you already secretly love...

Piratage Amoureux (Disquiet0542)

Birds Of Connecticut - every night, thousands of birds migrate through the skies of Connecticut. I like to go outside just before sunrise and record the different birds that are in the area. This morning between 5:00 am and 5:30 am I recorded a Chipping Sparrow, Baltimore Oriole, Tufted Titmouse, American Goldfinch, Black-capped Chickadee, Red-winged Blackbird, White-breasted Nuthatch, Chimney Swift, Carolina Wren, Northern Cardinal, and Gray Catbird. Now, I'm not able to identify all of these birds on my own. I use the Merlin Bird ID app created by the Cornell Ornithology Lab. I import the bird tracks into Apple Garageband, then add a few guitar drone tracks using a tc electronic aeon string sustainer. I find the entire process and the resulting track to be fun to create and very relaxing to listen to. I hope you do too.

Disquiet0543 - Birds Of Connecticut - Technique Check

For Disquiet Junto 0543. The Assignment: Share a tip from your method toolbox. Also shared version of this over on Weekly Beats. 
A lot of this track was made using a technique I love: taking a piece of audio then using the Ableton Push 2 and the Simpler device to retrigger, chop manipulate and play around with the sample to create something new. There are many ways to manipulate samples, but I like this method because it's fast, I can improvise musically without a lot of fussing around, and I can do it fully on the Push hardware, no computer or mouse needed. Simpler is simple, and the 64 pads and 8 knobs on the Push 2 make playing with samples fun, fast and easy. Happy accidents occur, and things usually sound to my liking with minimal fussing about, so I can just flow and have fun.
Another attribute I like to add to songs are my own voice sounds, but heavily altered since I'm not much of a  traditional singer. Bonus points when the voice can turn into perscussion or another instrument. I often take these voice recordings and chop and play with them in Simpler as described above. The intro and middle of this song has some of my early experiments with a talkbox pedal. It's harder than it looks. And kind of a wet mess. But I'll keep playing with it. Used the Circuit Monostation as the instrument into the talkbox. So not sure if talkbox will turn into a favorite method for voice manipulation, but I know I'll keep messing around with vocals sounds.
