Hi, I imagined a ball bouncing on that concrete room (photo).
The room is huge.
the ball is hollow and metallic.


Used:
Hang (treated with a bouncing delay fx)
Synthesized field recording
Filtered and treated field recording.

Recorded on December 22nd 2023  during the morning.

Ball Bouncing in This Empty Room (disquiet0625)

Process notes
Last week, encym(https://soundcloud.com/encym) recorded & uploaded “Neat Disorder” and I downloaded it on 3/13 

His original post and notes -
https://soundcloud.com/encym/neat_disorder_disquiet0636

“This week’s Junto project has always been one of my favourites – so I recorded the first third of what will eventually become a trio. I played it on my Tele through a simple, straightforward signal chain of Chase Bliss Mood (the main sound), fed through a Dark Star and a Polymoon to add space and variations in terms of timbre. No further editing in the DAW. I went for as sparse a track as I could, to provide as much space as possible for my potential collaborators. My hope is that you feel inspired by my “almost crumbling to pieces” vibe, and I look forward to hearing what you will be adding over the coming weeks for it to become a trio recording.”

My own additional process notes - 
On 3/15, I recorded about 9 minutes of prepared cuatro and picked some bits I liked for this piece. I used a few native Ableton Live effects, panned to right.

Artwork: Edit and additions to encym’s original using Adobe Photoshop 2024 and Q’MIC-Qt.

2024-03-15 Ataxophobia, Right? by encym & Jimmy Lem (disquiet0367)

For the second third of what will become a trio, I improvised over the neat track: https://soundcloud.com/encym/neat_disorder_disquiet0636?si=b9ddc52764ed4a2aa016f867b517e4fc&utm_source=clipboard&utm_medium=text&utm_campaign=social_sharing by @encym

The right side was made with a meaty and glassy combo instrument using Pigments and Falcon. 
Following the approach of the original track on the left, I made a sparse arrangement, with plenty of air and spectrum for future collaborators.

Assume a cathedral shape-naviarhaiku536

for john hinks.

two loops of vinyl glitch and a filtered techno beat give forward motion to several layers of piano and live guitar, tuned down and tone rolled off to make it sound like a bass guitar. the high end rapidly rolls off near the end to "de-arch" everything.

[naviarhaiku538] de-arching (for john)

Recorded for the Naviar Haiku challenge #536.

The intention is to illustrate the passing; peacefully, into darkness, into light.

Starting with a simple arpeggio on the Vintage Vibe, running through a Space Echo, followed by a slow and mellow bass on the Moog One and a bit of space glitter from the Waldorf Quantum. Finished off with an ambiguous melody on the Moog.

Recorded in Logic Pro X with a Soundcraft MTK22.

Added to that were a couple of semi random layers created in virtual modular using VCV Rack.

Along with those random elements I played a live solo using  Solionid an emulator plugin  based on the Solina String Ensemble: https://solcitomusica.blogspot.com/p/virtuales.html

Feijoa - disquiet0642

“Take the sound of the stone aging.” At first I thought about this in the geological sense. Then I came to the conclusion that aging basically just means living. So what are stones up to when they live their secret lives when nobody is watching? What’s their sound? I imagined it being something cheeky and a little funky, kind of slow but danceable.

This week’s project is based on a text by Yoko Ono, originally published in her book Grapefruit60 years ago, back in 1964.

Disquiet0643 - Cheeky Stones Funk

The Buchla Easel has been my favourite companion ever since I acquired it five or so years ago. Together with the KOMA BD-101 analogue delay they make a perfect team for travel and minimal live performances. The recent addition of the Buchla AUX card introduces beautiful noise, and allows for further modulations. Recorded with plenty of random voltages and live manual knob tweaking.

objective thankfulness [disquiet0413]

The phases of the moon, as are the phases of life. The seasons of the year, so also the seasons of life. The only constant is perpetual change.

Although slightly melancholic perhaps, this piece has a positive, upwards moving continuum, towards its subtle and peaceful finale.

First the Moog One was recorded in one take, through two Roland Space Echos, one each for left and right channel. Then, with quite an amount of knob tweaking, the shimmer and playfulness of the Waldorf Quantum was added, also in one take, through the tape echoes.

phases [disquiet0420]

Only a few days ago, I performed a live improvised soundtrack to the silent movie Metropolis, so this project was unusually timely. Once my gear was hooked up in the studio again, I improvised this soundtrack in a similar way, imagining walking through an an abandoned, haunted old movie theatre, in the darkest depths of the night...

Recorded live in the studio.
Moog One starts off with a bass drone.
Waldorf Quantum comes in, adding dissonant and spooky sounds.
After a while a piano is heard, delivering random eerie notes.
Towards the end, the chase is on, or is it just imagination?
Two Roland Space Echoes create added spookiness.

I think might have taken a bit of a personal approach to this project.

To create "short bursts of music" I used the Buchla Easel for one part of the composition, and the Waldorf Quantum for the other.

I created a fairly complex, random, self running patch on the Buchla Easel, which spits out short bursts of random notes and noise. This was routed through the KOMA BBD Delay, with its delay time controlled by the MakeNoise Wogglebug.

On the Quantum I choose a patch with two particle oscillators set to granular, and then I manipulated them in numerous ways during the recording. This is basically live slicing and live manipulation of a sample.

I would recommend you to follow the track through to its end, as there are quite a lot of interesting textures developing.
