Love how you have chopped the drip beats and made something of the rhythmic element... Enjoyed the arpeggiated chords, some lovely modulations, reassuring. Glad to hear the movement into glitch, always welcome... A very good track!

I love the ethereal quality you have achieved with you track!

Disquiet Junto Project 0579: Memory Serves
The Assignment: Rerecord a piece of music.

I chose https://krakenkraft.bandcamp.com/track/star-spawn from a 2017 release, which means I may have made it 2016 or 2015. 

Originally it was completely made with the compact DAW Caustic for Android. This time I used only the MIDI data export and rearranged it in Reaper with u-he Repro and Arturia Mellotron. 

Main objective was to get closer to my perception of the spirit of Berlin School style sequenced electronica. I put a lot of efforts in it and it is definitely more sophisticated. Nonetheless I'm not sure wether I really like it more than the original in every aspect. 

Artists name is now Etherkraken as he is my Berlin School personality, visible here: https://etherkraken.bandcamp.com/

Etherkraken: Star-spawned again [disquiet0579]

Disquiet 0581 - this weeks challenge was to download a rhythmic field recording and make it part of a track or incorporate it somehow.

Thanks to Scott Fletcher for having provided the original material. It is used thanks to a Creative Commons license: Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 3.0 Unported (CC BY-NC-SA 3.0). Original track at: https://soundcloud.com/disquiet/helsinki-downspout/

I loaded the field recording into Ableton and put it into a drum rack. I then took all the bits between the beats (hiss and non rhythmic parts) and started to mess about with these, adding filters and effects and also playing them as drum hits - that is how the track opens. 
I them loaded all these hiss parts into a synth and stretched and played them as keys, creating the additional synth sounds with effects changing the sounds somewhat.  After jamming about for 30 / 40 minutes I hit reccord and laid down a fairly basic arrangement. 
I tweaked this slightly, adding a little more effects until I had a nice short experimental track i'm pretty happy with!

More or less the whole track was made with the source sounds but it's debatable if the original sound is recognisable?  However I took the prompot to "to sample and rework the source material" as a guide! 

Disquiet Junto Project 0581: Helsinki Downspout

The Assignment: Use a rhythmic field recording as the foundation for a new track.

Step 1: This is a shared sample project, one in which all the participants will utilize the same provided recording, about a minute and a half long, as the rhythmic element for their own music. Access the track, originally recorded by Scott Fletcher and used with his permission, here:

https://soundcloud.com/disquiet/helsinki-downspout

Step 2: Listen to the provided track several times. Think about ways to map its content, perhaps making notations about when certain unique, momentary aspects surface.

Step 3: Record an original piece of music for which the provided music is the underlying rhythm. You might take this quite literally, using the source as it is, resulting in a track that is precisely 1:35 long. Alternately, you might elect to sample and rework the source material. If you go the latter route, make certain that the original sound is, at least at some point in the finished track, recognizable.

Step 4: Because this is a Creative Commons resource, be sure to identify Scott Fletcher as the original recorder of the source material, and include a link to the source track. Identify the license as: Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 3.0 Unported (CC BY-NC-SA 3.0).
