This is the fifth episode of the Disquietude podcast of ambient electronic music.

The goal of the Disquietude podcast is to collect adventurous work in the field of ambient electronic music. What follows is all music that captured my imagination, and I hope that it appeals to your imagination as well.

All five tracks of music are featured with the permission of the individual artists or record labels. Below is the structure of the episode with time codes for the tracks, the spoken annotation of the tracks, an interviews with one of the musicians (Lesley Flanigan), and a brief essay about reading waveforms.

a short test with the fantastic LW 258VCO (coupled with serge waveshaper). this connection and the joint feedback path makes these two osc extremely versatile. lots of harmonic overtones and even undertones possible depending on what mixture of wave is going through the tws.
also a test how to use the addac stochastic function generator in a tamed setting, every envelope is slightly different, the sequence gets "humanized".

Tracing Your Sulci - from the album 'Let's Be Happy!'.

Hot on the tail of Neuro... No Neuro’s full-on ambient onset - “A Particular Timeline” - “Let’s Be Happy” provides a mélange of arrangement techniques. Rhythmic, yet less percussive. Melodic, with broken pieces everywhere. Ambient without the long-form structure. Lowercase without the minimalism. Using the practical frameworks of “Scans”, the tracks take on the length of a pop-music track, but are full audio sculptures of a moment in time. Not fragments, but concise, complete builds. While completely without traditional percussive elements, “Let’s Be Happy” is abundant with rhythmic aberrations. Pulling from the looping elements of modern music, then breaking the traditional loop traditions. Beautiful melodies, gentle stop/starts, chattering, and positive harmonics are the specialty of the day. As before, these pieces are about prior and current neurological experiences. Epileptic auras, memory loss and its point of departure, visualizations, behaviors, and emotional content. This is a method of recall.
