The rhythm is actually quite evocative now that I know what it is.

Binaural samples of my ambisonic immersive masters project at UdK Berlin, performed in June, 2023. Use headphones for binaural effect.

The synthesized sounds are the product of an ambisonic buffer/wavetable synthesis method developed for this project. The other sounds are field recordings from Berlin. The complete work is 14 minutes, and involves 24 channels of audio playback. -Sean Regan

Nowhereville Samples Binaural Mix

PROCESS

Single notes in the key of C, staggered and stacked to move through different chords. "Attack" was eliminated using a combination of my trusted E-bow fed through an EHX POG2 with its attack setting jacked all the way up for max swell. Tape Delay, Phaser, Reverb added for space travel (or ocean travel as the case may be here).

RIG

Fabien (Peekamoose Custom Guitars M2), EHX POG2, Small Sound / Big Sound Sparkle Motion, tc electronic flashback delay, EQD Grand Orbiter, EQD Afterneath, Strymon blueSky, Line6 POD-XT (Vox AC-30 emulation), RECORDING DAW: Sony Acid 7.0 (Win 8.1), MASTERING DAW: Harrison Mixbus 2.5 (Mac OS 10.7.5)


PROJECT

Create a dense stack of attack-free tonal material from one audio source.

Step 1: Choose an instrument that can create extended tones.

Step 2: Record a short loop of a single held tone on that instrument. Use a volume pedal or other tool to eliminate the attack at the start of the tone.

Step 3: Create many more such loops, all with the same instrument, and layer them atop the original loop.

Step 4: Record a document of these layered loops lasting approximately 1 minute.

Step 5: Upload your completed track to the Disquiet Junto group on SoundCloud.

Step 6: Then listen to and comment on tracks uploaded by your fellow Disquiet Junto participants.

Swells [disquiet 0189:tone layer]
this track is an entry to disquiet Junto Project 0189 - to create a dense stack of attack-free tonal material from one audio source.
I used tuning forks over guitar pick up  ( yes i did this once before) through eq pedal and line 6 looper. Each improvised take was recored to minidisc...and then into computer and layered up 6 times...or so.... until I liked it  and hit the right concentration of tones.

xb at Solstice 2017 (Morning)

Needing to make a quick run to the mall just before closing, I tossed my recorder in my shirt pocket and hit record. I had not anticipated just how loud the friction of the recorder's movement in the shirt pocket as I walked would sound, but it added an unintentional commentary to the errand of deadline. One minute of fifteen-minute field recording selected. No edits, overlays, etc. Marantz PMD620 recorder, Audacity for trimming.
