Reconditus (disquiet0668)

Disquiet Junto 668 ("All Right Then, Keep Your Secrets") challenged us to record a 30-second bit of audio and warp, twist, layer, and disguise it, ensuring that the secret of the source sound will never be revealed.

Every sound in my piece derives from my secret source audio. The recording I started with was neither tonal nor rhythmic, so I sure did set myself up right from the start. I had to commit some crimes with convolution reverbs using novel impulse response samples to get tones. I used a super-sensitive noise gate to chop up the arrhythmic audio into bits that I could then sample as individual instruments to assign in a drum machine.

I set out to make something beautiful, which I don't think I accomplished, but I think it's at least interesting. And I got a great workout in the studio, busting my brain, so that's worthwhile on its own.

Please enjoy "The Secret Chord" calmly and without any sudden movements.

The Sound Unknown (disquiet0668)

This track is based on a single sound or recording. Following this week´s Disquiet Junto Project I created all sounds used in this track from this single source using PaulXStretch for creating unexpected sounds from the original, and strong effects for even more sound-manipulation and rhythmic aspects.

Overview and Details (Disquiet0668)

This is a section of a lengthy recording I made a week ago. Today I turned it into something quite different. I won't say what the process was, or what or where I was recording. I hope it is nevertheless enjoyable.

occulted (disquiet0668)

The source for this is a rather nice, minimal recording of [REDACTED]. Everything else is the work of the Devil, Paulstretch and assorted Audacity plugins and effects.

PLAY LOUD!

In shaded corridors [disquiet0668]

Ever feel you've been manipulated? Thirty seconds of field recording subjected to much mangling and modulation. Don't ask. It didn't happen.

After silence, that which comes nearest to expressing the inexpressible is music. ~ Aldous Huxley

All good music resembles something. Good music stirs by its mysterious resemblance to the objects and feelings which motivated it. ~ Jean Cocteau

All music is beautiful. ~ Billy Strayhorn
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I've become addicted to drone. Again. I was the kid with his head on the piano, listening to the overtones die away, or pressing his ear to the steel hull of the ferry, enthralled by the sounds it created. I was the kid who formed wordless songs to accompany the sound of train wheels on a long journey, or hummed along with the fan on a hot day.

In the 60s I used to play my 45s on 16, or backwards, or by hand using razor blades as stylii.

I made cut-up tapes on a cheap cassette recorder in the 70s and experimented with reel-to-reel in the 80s. 

Thank you Subotnick, Lygeti, Coltrane, Jimi, Mimaroglu, Eno, Cluster, Tangerine Dream, Klaus Schulze, Frank Zappa, Pink Floyd, Kraftwerk, Throbbing Gristle...

I am not a musician. I am a scavenger of sounds. I use the most basic software to process those sounds, stretching and filtering until something emerges that makes a joyful noise. Or not...

Assorted dark/ambient sound collages and experimental noisescapes /jams  - 
iOS and hardware - influences and inspiration include field recordings, sound design, electro/mechanical and natural ambient/drone textures and consequently my audio experiments often contain elements of these.
I am a digital artist and photographer with an honours degree in fine & applied art,
