Perfect soundtrack for traversing a frozen wasteland

ok, I'm not fluent on Pig Latin, but hey: during this Friday morning I managed to get two sentences done:
First sentence goes B-C-E-G-A-B8-Eb-D8
Second sentence goes B-C-A-E-B8-Eb-G-D8-E8-D8
Then I  transferred the initial two note "consonant cluster" to the end of the phrase and added a vocalic syllable in the form of a low A note (upright bass and treated piano)

00:00 First sentence B-C-E-G-A-B8-Eb-D8
00:13 Second sentence B-C-A-E-B8-Eb-G-D8-E8-D8
00:32 First sentence in Pig Latin
00:45 Second Sentence in Pig Latin

Added some filtered delays and reverbs.
I finished with a last low note and some acoustic detritus from the piano+fx return

Created on Friday March 12th for the 480th junto project.

https://llllllll.co/t/disquiet-junto-project-0480-ongsay-aftcray/

This project is informed by Pig Latin. From the Oxford English Dictionary: “a secret language formed from English by transferring the initial consonant or consonant cluster of each word to the end of the word and adding a vocalic syllable.”

UNPREDICTABLE FACTOR

Heute fege ich den Boden,
Haushaltsarbeit mag ich sehr.
Hurtig schwinge ich den Besen,
feiner Staub fliegt hin und her.
So geht es durch jedes Zimmer,
auch in dieser Ecke war ich schon.
Fegen lebt von Wiederholung,
wie aktive Meditation.

Ach, des Nachbars' Sauger
ist ein wahres Ungetüm:
durch die Wand kann man ihn hören,
Hund und Katze hassen ihn.
Ich bevorzuge den Besen,
der ist ruhig, brauch keinen Strom.
Heute fege ich den Boden -
aber das sagte ich ja schon...

I remixed/remangled/reimagined a previous ice-originated piece, one that had already been through numerous incarnations, all based on my original ice recording in 2013 (I think).

Interestingly, you can still hear moments of tinkling iciness buried in the noise…

The Assignment: Record the sound of ice in a glass and make something with it.

Welcome to a new year of Disquiet Junto communal music projects. This week’s project is as follows. It’s the same project we’ve begun each year with since the very first Junto project, way back in January 2012. The project is, per tradition, just this one step:

Step 1: Please record the sound of an ice cube rattling in a glass, and make something of it.

Participation in the "Disquiet Junto" project led by Marc Weidenbaum: Phase Transition.
The Assignment: Record the sound of ice in a glass and make something with it.

Ice cubes fall into a glass.
Recorded with a Tascam DR-100MKII + built-in mics Uni.
The Tascam is placed vertically on the glass, in contact.
A Pure data patch lets you hear the recording transposed to 3 voices  and brings out their harmonic components by spreading out them over time.
At the beginning we hear the untransposed sound.
This is the same Pure data patch as for:

Des glaçons tombent dans un verre.
Enregistrés avec un Tascam DR-100MKII + micros intégrés Uni.
Le Tascam est posé verticalement sur le verre, en contact.
Un patch Pure data fait entendre l'enregistrement transposé sur 3 voix et fait apparaitre ses composantes harmoniques en les déployant dans le temps.
On entends au début le son non transposé.
C'est le même patch que pour:

All good music resembles something. Good music stirs by its mysterious resemblance to the objects and feelings which motivated it. ~ Jean Cocteau

All music is beautiful. ~ Billy Strayhorn

I've become addicted to drone. Again. I was the kid with his head on the piano, listening to the overtones die away, or pressing his ear to the steel hull of the ferry, enthralled by the sounds it created. I was the kid who formed wordless songs to accompany the sound of train wheels on a long journey, or hummed along with the fan on a hot day.

In the 60s I used to play my 45s on 16, or backwards, or by hand using razor blades as stylii.

I made cut-up tapes on a cheap cassette recorder in the 70s and experimented with reel-to-reel in the 80s. 

Thank you Subotnick, Lygeti, Coltrane, Jimi, Mimaroglu, Eno, Cluster, Tangerine Dream, Klaus Schulze, Frank Zappa, Pink Floyd, Kraftwerk, Throbbing Gristle...

I am not a musician. I am a scavenger of sounds. I use the most basic software to process those sounds, stretching and filtering until something emerges that makes a joyful noise. Or not...
