Melodic Dark and Luminous Drones - disquiet0699 (with Ray Cobley and Alanblip)
This one’s quite experimental yet melodic and with a positive, luminous vibe (but with moments of darkness when Ray’s drone takes the foreground). 

Took this duo: https://soundcloud.com/ray_cobley/drone-double-with-alanblipdisquiet0698 by @ray_cobley 
who worked on this solo by  @alanblip https://soundcloud.com/alanblip/b-drone-disquiet0697 

Added a solo lead on my Oberheim OB-X and some noise washes on the same sytnh to channel the mighty Vangelis…

Melodic Dark and Luminous Drones (w/ray cobley & alanblip) - disquiet0699

Worked on this duo by e_nu_ri (@user-807707609) : https://soundcloud.com/user-807707609/bowed-and-jangled-farther-disquiet0698  based on this original track by 
@red_robin
https://soundcloud.com/red_robin/disquiet-junto-0697-mr-bowed-jangles

The all-synth background is great. I thought the contrast between those synth tracks and a warm, acoustic tone could be interesting, so I improvised a lead part on tenor ukulele. I also added an infra bass drone playing the tonic, and used a little software I’m beta testing that generates sound from a text prompt using some kind of AI (can’t say more here, but it’s fun for drones!).
It's like a dark, abstract recitativo, hope you like it.

Mr Bowed Jangles returns (w/ he_nu_ri and Tristan Louth-Robins) - disquiet0699

Built on top of the excellent bass and rhythm work of DD and halF unusuaL in the previous two weeks, and operating under the influence of Lol Tolhurst's rock and roll memoirs, as well as the unease of being here now in 2025, here is a happy little song about modern life.

by those are not entirely beautiful - #4323 (95R30 percent 213 levt) by chair house 251015

A slow, laid-back funk groove with jazzy sax, clavinet, deep fender jazz bass, and abstract synth textures.
Smooth, atmospheric, and slightly cinematic — the kind of track that lives between a modal jam and a chill-out or lounge beat.

Performed by DD - clavinet, electric bass, abstract synth, drum program.
With Miguel Yanover - Tenor saxophone

New Future

This turned out a bit more Hallowe'en than I was expecting, but given the date, maybe that's OK 😁💀🎃

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.

My 33 1/3 series book about the Aphex Twin album <i>Selected Ambient Works Volume II</i> was published in 2014. The book was one of the top 5 bestselling titles for the calendar year, and in 2015 was ranked by Pitchfork as one of the "33 best" of the 100-plus books in the 33 1/3 series. It has subsequently been translated into Japanese (2019) and Spanish (2018)

Since 2012 I have moderated the Disquiet Junto group, which began on SoundCloud. More at disquiet.com/junto. 

I've written for Nature, Pitchfork, The Wire, Down Beat, Boing Boing, NewMusicBox, Red Bull Music Academy, Art Practical, the website of The Atlantic, and many other publications. 

I've exhibited sound art at galleries in Los Angeles (Crewest), Manhattan (apex art), and Dubai (DUTAC), and I had a audio-visual installation at the San Jose Museum of Art as part of its 45th anniversary.

And since 1996 I've run the website Disquiet.com about the intersection of sound, art, and technology.
