This sounds so cool! Really interesting work.

I liked it for the overall feel, but I can’t help but mention that it sounds like R2-D2 and lightsabers!

Tränen des Eros

Tränen des Eros - chamber music drone (disquiet 0488)

[disquiet0487] Blend

Entirely composed of manipulations of a field recording of filling a kettle, boiling it, then making a cup of tea.

The recording was loaded into several instances of Ableton's Simpler sampler. One track was created using Simpler's Slice function. The results of this were sent to a group of ApulSoft ApQualizr's each narrowly bandpassing a group of frequencies determined by ear. This was repeated with another track using different frequencies. The results were additionally ducked and filtered.

Another track used pitched versions of a section of the original recording and these were passed through Albedo and convolution reverbs.  A further track was a snipped sample from the original recording played through Ableton's Wavetable synthesizer with the table position being modulated by an envelope based on the synth's output.

These tracks were then variously panned, filtered, compressed and volume-automated to create the final track.

For Carillon Quotidian, I used a MHK 8040 mic and MixPre-6 to record an electric razor. I then generated a track in which playback speed and pan was manipulated for multiple loops the recording as generated in Supercollider.  The higher speed of playback (between 1.7 and 4.8x) of the recording of the razor gave a surprising flute like timbre and I added some delay to achieve the final sound on the razor track.  I added a piano and bass track using software instruments from Spitfire, but everything else is from the recorded sound of  the razor.  Thanks to everyone for participating in this prompt.

Second Chance(disquiet0488)

“The unadorned idea of a goal is ambiguous,” writes the neuroscientist Read Montague in his book Your Brain Is (Almost) Perfect. “As with any complex information-processing system, there are many levels of software in the brain … all other subgoals take a backseat to the most important edict—‘Stay alive until tomorrow.’”

One could be forgiven for procrastinating creative efforts during these past fourteen or so months. Alternatively, such conditions may also inspire a flurry of new activity that otherwise would not have happened. Regardless, some amount of stuff doesn’t get done.

Suss Müsik had an album ready to go for nearly a year before actually completing and releasing it this week. The concept was to revisit prior works with simpler, more spare arrangements. 

Suss Müsik was also interested in exploring what French philosopher Gilles Deleuze described as “figurative analogies,” blurring the auditory lines between how digital and analogue sounds are represented.

This week’s Junto contribution, titled Deleuze, is the demo of a track that wasn’t included on an album that almost never got made. A figurative analogy, perhaps, for what we mean to do vs. what we actually do.

Disquiet Junto Project 0488: Reverse Delay
Assignment: Do something you’ve been putting off.

While searching online for information about Ampex 601 tape recorders I came across the work of Joseph Hammer a Los Angeles improviser who works with tape loops on an Ampex 601. I was intrigued by his method, including the gloved hand, and wanted to try something similar.   

Three improvisations on 3 tracks. A long, layered background; a repeated short gesture recorded on a 10 second loop; and an animated improvisation using a 4 second loop. The sound source is a small modular synthesizer looped on an Ampex 601 tape recorder. Mixed in Audacity.

Reverse Delay for Ampex 601 tape recorder Disquiet0488

This contains a sample of an olive oil bottle being filled from a full sink of water. It created an interesting rhythm that I felt could be used in a track. So I guess this falls into the sample I've been putting off using. I've also been bothered by not allowing enough space in my tracks—so this was also an attempt at minimalism. Not sure if I fully realised that goal.
