The Assignment: Record the first third of a trio.

Please note: While this project is the start of a three-part sequence that will unfold over the course of three consecutive weeks, you can participate in any or all three of those parts. 

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 resulting from this week’s project will be panned to the left in the second and third weeks of this sequence.)

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 the one after that.

This track is inspired by the beautiful and unique landscape of Brittany, especially the Côte de Granit Rose.

It is intended to be the first part of an asynchronous trio - as inspired by this week's Disquiet Junto project. But it is also meant to be a composition on its own.

Added a rhythm played on the TR8S with a second pass to hand-crank filter and delay effects.

This pie is waiting for a third to fill in the missing piece.

Second Third (disquiet0698) Fake Genius x Torpid Scorpion

This was my second contribution for Disquiet Junto Project 0698: Second Third. The Assignment: Record the second third of a trio.

Here’s a copy of my post on the Disquiet Junto 0698 discussion thread on Lines:

For the second track, I went with “Mr. Bowed Jangles” by @tristan_louth_robins. I extended the length of it by looping the piece 2.5 times. Then created the right channel track using Dillon Bastan’s Max For Live granular looper device Iota in Ableton Live.

Bowed And Jangled Farther [disquiet0698]

This track was inspired by the Men Ruz lighthouse on the Côte de Granit Rose near Ploumanac'h. It is an asynchronous duo based on the excellent track https://soundcloud.com/fake-genius/disquiet0697-seq, created by @fake-genius and made available for this Disquiet Junto project.

The photography of the Men Ruz lighthouse was kindly supplied by @the_robocat (more photos to be found here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/the_robocat).

I'm really taken with last week's Disquiet Junto track by audiosnafu and alanblip: https://soundcloud.com/audiosnafu/disquiet0698 and I was drawn to add a cheeky third part - hope I didn't ruin it!
