haiku #518: dark clouds menacing – / I doubt we shall reach shelter / before the deluge

I assembled a handful of drum vignettes using different types of sequencing methods, using recordings of rusty metal sounds from an airbnb I visited in Elmore, VT in July 2023. (Notes to follow)

–––

"Rust Drum Collage" was submitted as part of ​the Disquiet Junto Project 0612: Drum Vector. The Assignment: Walk the listener through variations on the same percussive instrument.

Rust Drum Collage • [disquiet 0612]

This track started from a newspaper article (published in November 1973 in my home country). I processed it through a text-to-speech software and use it as a base to improvise melodies and rhythms. I then extracted elements that I liked and arranged them into the final piece.

The goal was to make the voice less audible as the track progresses. To achieve this, I used different set of effects on each sections of the track.

The basis of this track is a recording of a thunderstorm made a couple of months back. The rhythm tracks are generated solely from that storm recording and you can hear the original sounds of thunder and rain in the background, throughout the track. Enjoy!

More on this 624th weekly Disquiet Junto project, Fresh Pair (The Assignment: Combine two influences, however disparate they may be), at: https://disquiet.com/0624/

For my response to the disquiet brief, the two musical influences behind this track are David Sylvian - here referred to through elements of the amazing 'Ghosts' by his band, Japan, in the 1980s - and Brian Eno - through the use of extended, ambient, structures and the use of chance. 

The 'ghost' here is Alain Badiou - a more philosophical influence - talking about desire in his lectures on change, which can be found @ https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PL_QaFDCZn9rDGSOG_wWK0GZTNKzHgohgC&si=JHUCCic-FxDudNwK

You can also hear 'Ghosts' by Japan @ https://youtu.be/7zzLU1ato2w?si=rvVWv3uV8l3s53O0

Of Dust

Mysterious, suspenseful, semi-orchestral, moderate tension, underscore track for mystery, crime, thriller, spies, secret agents, investigative journalism and high-level conspiracies. More rhythmic and percussion elements are introduced later in the track, as the intensity increases. (Stem files available.)


Buy/License

Mramor

Experimental 85/170 BPM IDM with electro edge. Digitakt drums and resampled one-shots sequenced on OXI One into tight polyrhythms, micro-edits, and half-time/full-time switchups. Ableton Live FX (bit-crush, saturation, delays, transient shaping) push it into crisp, futuristic, glitch-driven momentum.
