This was my contribution for Disquiet Junto Project 0636: Left (1 of 3)

Here’s a copy of my post on the Disquiet Junto 0636 discussion thread:

Created this generative ambient track using SDKC Helical on my little ALM 3U 52hp rig. No other modules were used except for a bit of reverb with FX Aid. Manually adjusted note spread, envelope, filter cutoff, etc. while recording. Mangle, chop up or do whatever you’d like for your creation. The main thing of course is to enjoy the process. Busy few weeks coming up so not sure whether I’ll be able to participate 100% in this series, we’ll see.
This is in C# Major.

Used Pigments and its FX to generate some drippy splong sounds. Feel free to warp, cut, resample or whatever you feel like.

Key is C Major even though its not that tonal and tempo is 100 BPM.

Step 1: This week’s Junto project is the first in a sequence intended to encourage and reward collaboration. You will be recording something with the understanding that it will remain unfinished for the time being. Your part will be done, but more will happen. Read on.

Step 2: The plan is for you to record a short and original piece of music using any instrumentation of your choice. Conceive the piece as something that leaves room for something else — other instruments, other people — to join in. (Keep in mind that your piece would appear panned to the left in the finished recording, after three weeks.)

Step 3: Record a short piece of music, roughly two to three minutes in length, as described in Step 2.

Step 4: This is important: be sure to make your track downloadable because it may be used by someone else in the next Disquiet Junto project, and then after that.

The Assignment: Record the first third of a trio.

My idea for this first part of the trio was to create something that sounded like a single acoustic instrument, while sounding like no known instrument.

The piece was basically made with a home made version of the Vietnamese Dan Bau instrument, which I played with a bow (non traditional). I selected some recordings that sounded interesting and re-recorded those played back through a software effects chain with a resonator (physical model of a pipe) and a feedback mechanism. I played this feedback-resonator-device using a 3D midi control surface, mapping the many parameters of the physical model and feedback mechanism to the 3 of the controller by using a technique called preset morphing. Finally, I collaged several recordings together to get the final piece, trying to leave room for contributions of others — i.e. sparse arrangement, minimal stereo image, hold back on reverb.

Overlapping loops, inspired the the warmup noodlings of an orchestra. The sound source is the PolyD fed through the "Sleepwalker" patch of the Zoia.

disquiet0636 Short

This track is a slow drone using 11 different panned Logic Pro X organs. 7 play bottom C1, 2 play Aflat1, 1 plays A1, 1 plays G1. Added are arpeggiators, reverbs and other effects to give texture and pulse.

This in response to the first of this year's three part @disquiet collaborative project. More on the 636th weekly Disquiet Junto project, Left (1 of 3) — The Assignment: Record the first third of a trio — at https://disquiet.com/0636/

Composed and created in Ableton 12. This was a great excuse to play around with some of the new instruments in Live 12.

There is a lot of spatial quality to the instruments. Best probably to pan the sound to the left if you like, or if extreme, take only the left side. Combining L+R to make a mono track will alter the tonal quality considerably.

Live Performance by PANdemonium4 Flute Quartet on Aug 3rd, 2025. Sylvia Vance Concert Series - Church of the Master united Methodist - Westerville, Ohio, USA

Inspired by a night in Morocco's desert, 'Dust in the Wind' evokes a desert storm through a rich palette of flute techniques. Fluttering textures, breathy tones, and sharp bursts of air recreate the escalating intensity of the wind. As the storm fades, the piece gently returns to serene tranquility.
