I watched Glastonbury with old legends like Elton, Cat Stevens, Blondie and The Pretenders etc. who all showed they can still rock the place in their 70s!! Amazing! Hats off to all!!

Here's a track in the "Brit" style and tradition and it gave me an excuse to give my guitars and voice a bit of an airing :)

You Let Go

Disquiet Junto Project 0601: Hard Six

L`idea di come creare/strutturare il pezzo è nata mentre stavo testando alcuni sequencers M4L, specialmente quelli che permettevano un buona randomizzazione, in modo da ottenere linee melodiche casuali non troppo scontate (https://maxforlive.com/library/index.php).
Il secondo passaggio è stato l`abbinamento di questi 6 sequencers a 6 strumenti diversi. Anche in questo caso ho preferito strumenti acustici dal carattere percussivo.

1) GenStep 1 + Synth1
2) Generative + Acoustic Piano
3) Pas à Pas +  Acoustic Piano
4) LBC Synplant + Surge XT
5) GenStep 1 + Matapiano
6) Doc Drunken Pitch + Ting (Percussive Instrument)

Step 2: Roll a single die for each of the six segments chosen in Step 1.

Abbinamenti (Relative presence = frequency of appearance):
Number 1 -- Group 6
Number 2 -- Group 5
Number 3 -- Group 4
Number 4 -- Group 3
Number 5 -- Group 2
Number 6 -- Group 1

Solo Piano - Chris Bright

we are not who you think we are - 8:8:23, 6.27 PM

Aliens : the broadway musical, soundscape. 
A tense, minimal soundscape of drifting machinery and eerie emptiness. 
Pulsing sub-bass, metallic echoes, and 3D granular textures evoke deep space isolation.
