Disquiet Junto Project 0485: Strange Weather
The Assignment: Remix the pure sounds of Chris Kallmyer’s traveling wind chimes to your own musical purposes.

This is the second of two projects in a row we’re doing with artist Chris Kallmyer. You needn’t have participated in the previous one to do this one. First, some background: Kallmyer’s “Two hearts are better than one” is a pair of wind chimes, one of which is depicted in this week’s cover image, crisscrossing Los Angeles at the height of the pandemic. Installed at homes for week-long listening sessions, the chimes formed a duet across a city and provided intimate experiences with sound for 16 families sheltering at home. (More at chriskallmyer.com.)

Step 1: Chris has provided us with a recording of the wind chimes, a little over five minutes long. The audio was cleaned up by Alex Hawthorn to maximize the clarity of the chimes themselves, removing much of the background sound, thus situating the chimes in what might be thought of as a platonic space. Access the wav file at dropbox.com.

Step 2: Do what you wish this the chimes. Remix them to your musical heart’s content. The one request is that at least once in your recording, let the source audio be heard clearly.

My process:
All sounds generated from the source audio.  Samples chopped and sequenced in Renoise.

-FREE MUSIC- PLEASE READ:  Are you a YouTuber, artist, or creative looking for good free music? I am a videographer and own my own business Cook Films. During my profession as a videographer I learned how important it was to use music in the background of my videos to enhance the feeling of the video. Now days more than ever, creatives are creating content for the web at an alarming rate and are searching for music. Whether the content is for YouTube, Instagram, Tik Tok, or for a website, my music can help you save money. And while you save your money by using my music you can spend it on other aspects of the video production process. Many videos can benefit from music playing in the background. Or you could use music for your opening title of the video. 
And artist, are you tired of looking for beats and instrumentals that are lame and that all sound the same? My music if free, original, and best of all it is free for all artist. Write lyrics to my instrumentals and save some money by downloading my music for free. The music that is provided right now is great music. 
Many online companies have dedicated themselves to providing creatives with quality music that fits very well into video production. However, there are those times when the video client does not want to pay for music, but you know that music helps drive the video. This is where my music comes in. You can download my music and use it in your production, and you did not even have to pay for it. 
I create music under the name of J-Surreal. As a videographer it was always hard to buy music. The music was expensive. So, I am now donating my music to creatives for FREE. You can use my music for social media such as in YouTube videos, Instagram, and web videos. You can also use my music to write songs to. You can use my music under the creative commons license (Attribution No Derivatives) which states: 
This license allows for redistribution, commercial and non-commercial, if it is passed along unchanged and in whole, with credit to Cook Films. You can list Cook Films and the name of the instrumental. You can use the donate button to donate to me. Your donations will help me create more music for you to use in the future. Select the more button to download the songs. 
My style is chilled alternative soul/r&b and hip hop with a synth melodic vibe to it. I love music... and making music that is real. If it comes from the heart, then it is REAL. There will be days when you just cannot create, but those days in which the creativity flows it’s just an awesome feeling, a feeling that music can only bring.
Is there a catch no, there is no catch. However, I you wish to donate to me you can do so by clicking on the donate button. Your donations will help me continue to create free music for other to benefit from.
In the end my hope is for you to find a piece of music that can be used in one of your YouTube videos, Instagram videos or a song. You never know, my music may inspire you to write a song or two. If you find this helpful, please share this post and my info with others so they too can benefit from FREE music. www.cookfilms.co

Lodi Da

The throat chakra, or Vishuddha, is the fifth chakra, located at the center of the throat. It governs communication, self-expression, and truth—both speaking and living it. When balanced, it supports clear, authentic expression and the confidence to share our inner voice. This track is composed in the musical note G, which resonates with the throat chakra, and includes the bija mantra HAM, which can be chanted to open and align this center of communication and truth. It is also tuned to 432Hz, a frequency believed to support vibrational healing and clarity on a cellular level.

The Assignment: Make music inspired by a line from A Wizard of Earthsea: “For a word to be spoken, there must be silence. Before, and after.”

Also on album "Hearken Beach".
https://krakenkraft.bandcamp.com/album/hearken-beach

Originally I just wanted to make five minutes of interchanching deep pad and noisy something, with a lot of non-silent space between them. I added some ambient field recordings in these spaces, because the name of the track was intended to be 'The Impossibility of Being Silent'.

But then my mi clouds produced some sounds of it's own and I liked it. At the end I had to reintroduce silence to all parts. All in all I hope this to be considered as a tentative approach to silence, with an increase towards the end.
