LYRICS:

Do you think you're ready for what I've got on my mind?
You think that you've got me but instead I think you'll find...

All the noise I push away
Set the mark and struck the vein
And it's going to bring the pain
Cause I don't fucking need you

As night rolls over to day
Every word you have to say
Brings a smile onto my face
Cause I know I'm gonna hurt you

Never needed you anyway
You made the bed in which you lay
Now you're feeling dead and grey
Cause I didn't let you haunt me
Never needed you anyway
You made the bed in which you lay
Now you're feeling dead and grey
Cause I didn't let you haunt me

Every time you speak it's like a razor up my spine
It's not worth pretending everything is good and fine
Maybe you'll cut into me the way I do to you
Love or hate me for everything that I ever do

All the noise I push away
Set the mark and struck the vein
And it's going to bring the pain
Cause I don't fucking need you

As night rolls over to day
Every word you have to say
Brings a smile onto my face
Cause I know I'm gonna hurt you

Never needed you anyway
You made the bed in which you lay
Now you're feeling dead and grey
Cause I didn't let you haunt me

Too bad for me
Too bad for you

All the noise I push away
Set the mark and struck the vein
And it's going to bring the pain
Cause I don't fucking need you

As night rolls over to day
Every word you have to say
Brings a smile onto my face
Cause I know I'm gonna hurt you

Never needed you anyway
You made the bed in which you lay
Now you're feeling dead and grey
Cause I didn't let you haunt me
Never needed you anyway
You made the bed in which you lay
Now you're feeling dead and grey
Cause I didn't let you haunt me

Shear Wind Drone (disquiet0632)

The prompt for Disquiet Junto 0632, "Shear Wind", instructed us to take that awful wind-blowing-across-the-microphone sound and make it useful.

I live in a notoriously wind-swept city and the weather was cooperative, so I recorded several minutes of wind shear in my back yard with a stereo field recorder. I brought the recording into my DAW on three tracks, one reversed, and executed some glitch maneuvers to make them rhythmic. On top of everything is a Cmaj7 drone using a few layers of custom sampler instruments.

REMEMBER: Headphones are antennae, like an insect's, that pick up the thoughts of the composer.

Disquiet Junto

A Picnic on a Cliff (disquiet0632)

I took a walk through the pedestrian area of Munich, namely Sendlinger Strasse. It was windy, and as the app used my noise-cancelling headset as its microphone, there are plenty of noises and dropouts in the recording... something you'd normally delete immediately. 

I wanted to make something tonal from this noisefest. 

The file underwent a treatment with Reaktors Molekular and Valhalla reverb. The accompanying chords and melodies come from S&A Landforms and Spectres, Spitfire BBC Orchestra, and the ever lovely Reaktor Snowflake ensemble. Nothing’s on grid, I tried to arrange the parts as they seemed to fit. It still feels a bit lopsided sound- and arrangement-wise, but that’s the Disquiet Junto: You only have a finite number of days to work on it (and that’s a good thing).

Disquiet Junto Project 0632: Shear Wind
The Assignment: Make the most of the disturbance within a field recording.

Step 1: Consider how when making a field recording, there can be disturbances in it, such as a passing car or plane, or a noise you didn’t notice until you listened back, or a malfunction in the recording equipment. A common such problem is wind shear.

Step 2: Make a recording that has wind shear in it, perhaps by standing in the wind, or recording from a moving vehicle, or through some other technique. Or locate a pre-existing field recording with wind shear, perhaps on freesound.org 1.

Step 3: Make a piece of music employing the recording you made in Step 2, and make the wind shear a focus of the piece. That is, pay attention to, rather than avoid, this sound that you would likely in other circumstances identify as a shortcoming.

Seven Important Steps When Your Track Is Done:

Step 1: Include “disquiet0632” (no spaces or quotation marks) in the name of your tracks.

Step 2: If your audio-hosting platform allows for tags, be sure to also include the project tag “disquiet0632” (no spaces or quotation marks). If you’re posting on SoundCloud in particular, this is essential to subsequent location of tracks for the creation of a project playlist.

Step 3: Upload your tracks. It is helpful but not essential that you use SoundCloud to host your tracks.

Step 4: Post your track in the following discussion thread at llllllll.co:

https://llllllll.co/t/disquiet-junto-project-0632-shear-wind/

Step 5: Annotate your track with a brief explanation of your approach and process.

Step 6: If posting on social media, please consider using the hashtag #DisquietJunto so fellow participants are more likely to locate your communication.

Step 7: Then listen to and comment on tracks uploaded by your fellow Disquiet Junto participants.

Note: Please post one track for this weekly Junto project. If you choose to post more than one, and do so on SoundCloud, please let me know which you’d like added to the playlist. Thanks.

Additional Details:

Length: The length is up to you.

Deadline: This project’s deadline is the end of the day Monday, February 12, 2024, at 11:59pm (that is, just before midnight) wherever you are. It was posted on Thursday, February 8, 2024.

Upload: When participating in this project, be sure to include a description of your process in planning, composing, and recording it. This description is an essential element of the communicative process inherent in the Disquiet Junto. Photos, video, and lists of equipment are always appreciated.

Download: It is always best to set your track as downloadable and allowing for attributed remixing (i.e., a Creative Commons license permitting non-commercial sharing with attribution, allowing for derivatives).

Noise Canceling [disquiet0632]

For this project I used a recording of a walk in the lovely Swiss mountain village of Ernen. You can hear lots of cow bells, children and a stroller. I cut several parts out of the recording that have wind shear, I then pitched them down and looped them, gradually focusing more on the windy parts. Also I added a Glockenspiel arpeggio. Drawing is based on a mural in Ernen.
