There’s something rather nice about that indescribable sense of languor. I imagine there’s a vast amount of information behind it all, but…

A horse named Decent

Among other things, I have been working on textured drone sequences and this track is a short sample.  It was created using Pure Data with various fx.

Droning Dialogue (disquiet0743)

Groove-led jam built on Höfner bass and drums.
Hammond organ and guitar (Telecaster) layered on top — mostly one take, lightly edited.

This is my first recording with my new Höfner "Violin Bass", real drums performed by the great Steve Argüelles.

Just a slow, groovy jam to get to know the peculiar sound of this new instrument.

Hofner  Groove (disquiet0743)

The magic of the waves – their endless movement and eternally changing rhythmic sounds... This track is an homage to this phenomenon. It was created and performed using the Yamaha SeqTrak and recorded live.

Ralph Whitehead kindly provided the field recording of the waves on Freesound under the Creative Commons 0 licence (https://freesound.org/people/ralph.whitehead/sounds/470647/). My thanks go to him.

Waves, and then goodbye (Disquiet0743)

kept meaning to revisit this almost sine wave like pad sound from having triangle waves filtered way down. two ever so slightly detuned triangle waves with independent pitch sequences. field recordings and automation added in ableton live

disquiet0743 - triangle waves and outside sounds

Starting point: something I do too often.

I tend to begin with a bass improvisation — familiar voicings, something that immediately feels “me” — and then reshape it until the source disappears, even if the identity remains.

This piece comes from a one-hour session: bass, a sustain-like effect, tremolo (Seymour Duncan Shape Shifter), and long reverbs/delays. No overdubs, just letting the signal decay into itself.

The almost infinite tails create a shimmering drone that becomes the real structure — something I rely on more than I probably should.

Disquiet Junto Project 0745: Double Down
The Assignment: Do something you do too much even more.

Step 1: Think about something in your music that you feel like you do too often.

Step 2: Make a piece of music in which you double down on what you focused on in Step 1. Own it. Turn a crutch into a superpower.

i often [intentionally] end up putting layers of field recordings underneath my tracks

doubling down on that approach here

the main loop is a recording from a quick jam on my palette case a few weeks back

and there's a whole load of field recordings with some automation/filtering/delay added in ableton live

The concept of this track is that a simple melody is turned into a whole universe. Eight notes played on a vintage Hohner Organetta are transformed into a soundscape through the use of various effects chains. It's as if the Organetta is calling out deep in the forest and receiving replies from the trees, animals, and all the metaphysical elements that inhabit it.

I was inspired to create this track by this week's Disquiet Junto Project (see below for details).

The track art was kindly provided by @the_robocat and was taken in the Odenwald this Saturday. A high-resolution version can be found on Flickr at https://www.flickr.com/photos/the_robocat/55202984245/.
