**Disquiet Junto Project 0680: Reverse Resolution**  
The Assignment: Finish something (musical) you started last year.

This project has just one step: finish something you started last year, likely a piece of music you left unfinished.

#### Background
It's been a long time since I played anything on keyboard. For the last six months, my electric piano has been sitting up vertically against the studio wall, covered with a sheet and pretty much neglected. During my staycation (almost at an end now) I'd come into the studio, and just before I decloaked the keyboard, I'd get distracted or discouraged somehow.

I thought about the keyboard in relation to this week's assignment and recalled that I had a chord progression that I'd been meaning to do something with. So that's where this started.
#### Studio approach

The chord progression itself is very simple and revolves around a Bb Major 7th in second inversion (F-A-Bb-D) which occasionally resolves to a Dm7 and/or G7. This forms the scaffolding for the track, with degrees of improvisation after resolving to the Dm7.

I found a bass melody which could lead into these chords and played these on an electric (Rhodes-like) piano patch, with the chords played on the piano patch. Beneath this was a spare 3/4 click, which once the piano parts were in place, I used an ML-generated drum pattern with tweaked parameters.

An electric guitar largely compliments the piano chords and steadily opens up a bit, whilst a myriad of synth patches are introduced to provide a bit of atmosphere. Lastly, I included a field recording as a backdrop. This was a recording from new year's day in a national park on the Fleurieu Peninsula.

I guess I could sum up the mood of this track as 'wistfully pensive', much like my general outlook for this year.

Tristan Louth-Robins is a South Australian artist working principally in the medium of sound art and field recording. Ideas of sound and its signification are key elements in Louth-Robins' practice, traversing the space between the visual and aural his work is realised through the mediums of recordings, installation, visual art and performance. He is interested in sound and its associative implications - including its relationship to objects, technology, urban space, memory and the natural world. 


Since 2005, Louth-Robins has presented work in Australia and internationally as a solo artist, whilst also collaborating with artists, writers, researchers, musicians and performers. 

Working across a vast array of activities encompassing composition, sound design, installation art, field recording and workshops, his work has been featured in events such as the Adelaide Festival of Arts (2006), The National Regional Arts Festival (2012), Mildura-Wentworth Arts Festival (2013), Fairfax Festival (2013) and Adelaide Fringe Festival (2014); and selected works exhibited at galleries including The Australian Experimental Art Foundation (2009), SASA Gallery (2012, 2015), Light Square Gallery (2012) and FELT Space (2015). His audio works have been broadcast on radio including Radio National, Classic FM, The BBC (UK), Acoustic Frontiers (USA) and RBB (Germany).

Independent electronic ambient artist, crafting immersive soundscapes that blend atmosphere with deep exploration of texture and tone. My compositions are shaped by the active imagination described by C. G. Jung and the vivid landscapes of my dreams, translating emotions into evolving auditory experiences.
Influenced by ambient minimalism and deep bass tweaking with VCF filters, my music layers rich harmonics, resonant frequencies, and fluid transitions to create enveloping and transportive journeys.
