Disquiet Junto Project 0475: Low End (4 of 3). The Assignment: Remix a trio by doing forensics on its component parts.

When I heard some results from disquiet0472, I had instantly some favourites, but choose to go on with a RNG track. This time I ignored some rules by going back to the tracks from disquiet0472, where I had considered to build on https://soundcloud.com/noimspartacus/orphaned-loop-disquiet0472?in=disquiet/sets/disquiet-junto-project-0472 (very minimalistic) and https://soundcloud.com/k-blamo/recording93disquiet0472 (just awesome), and by accident I this time stumbled upon https://soundcloud.com/anotherbenjamin/disquiet0472-paper-jam?in=disquiet/sets/disquiet-junto-project-0472 (great theme).

All sound sources come from these three tracks.  I started with cutting out loops, went on to looping in Ableton, exported to stems and mixed in reaper. I was not pleased with the harmonica loop from Ableton (all loops were triggered by probabilities) and remixed the cutouts in GleetchlabX and added the results. Then I added the usual reverbs and fx.

A Question Of Timing [disquiet0475] Remix

Las Ruinas Circulares: an electronic collage incorporating some of the eponymous work by Jorge Luis Borges first published in 1940 in the literary journal Sur.

Are we the dreamer or the dream? The act of creation is one of pain but also of necessity. The culture of judgement and personal responsibility posits the guilt of the agent. but is there agency, or does the house of cards rest on nothing at all; a supposition? Are we a construct of images, pasted together from scraps of memory?

Voices raised in dream:
- modular (rings, pams, sloths, 2hp arp, 
- rhodes
- valhalla
- Drumbrite, SSF entity
- flatwound
- torpid scorpion
