Disquiet0481 Sometimes You're The Ghost

Repetition Legitimizes - disquiet0483

Another visit to the absent detective for Disquiet Junto 

This weeks instructions were to use a recording of typing as the rhythmic basis of a track. For some reason despite not having taken part for sometime this grabbed my imagination.

Most of the track apart from the solo is a supercollider program. Using machine listening to derive the timing from my typing. Despite my original intentions being very different the combination of typing and the patterns somehow got me in a blade runner/noir kind of mood and I leaned right into that. Indulgent but sod it 

If you are wondering what I'm typing it is this nonsense - I didn't want to have too big gaps between lines so I just kept typing. I think we can all agree it is complete bollocks: 

"The door swung open. It hadn’t been locked

I cautiously went in. The place was in disarray, chairs tipped over, rubbish everywhere. One window slightly open.

I surveyed the scene - was the occupant just a very messy person or had the place been turned over. I was never to find out. 

I heard a noise outside and before I had chance to react a woman came bursting through the door. 

“Ah there you are” she started 

She was kind of out of place, well dressed, a nice dress, furs. Classy - not like this dive 

“Look I’ve been phoning all week. I simply must know how you are getting one” 

“I’m not who you think I am” I said 

She stopped and looked at me

“And who do I think you are?” 

“well…” 

“God man - focus. Now look about the case - I need to see some progress. Not you dithering about here in this office. Get out there. Get some work done. I’m paying you enough” 

And with that she left "

South Africa has lost another esteemed Islamic luminary and scholar following the passing of Mufti Yacoob Minty of Klerksdorp. 

The esteemed Islamic scholar passed away on Tuesday.

Ml Obeidullah Boja pays tribute to Marhoom Mufti Yacoob Minty of Klerksdorp following his passing

Nick is joined by broadcaster Rishi Persad to discuss the day's news, starting with UAE based trainer Doug Watson's enforced withdrawal of his runners at Meydan today because "a number of his staff" have tested positive for Covid-19. Nick and Rishi ask whether British racing should roll out mass testing, while Piet Ramzan, senior partner at Rossdales in Newmarket, laments the lack of social distancing and mask wearing across stables in racing's HQ. Later in this edition, Graham Motion appreciated the brilliant career of Jonathan Sheppard, which has come to an end in the US.

Ep 134 - Testing Times

Dans notre société, chacun a sa place, quel qu'il soit ! Mais pour aller à la rencontre de l'autre, échanger, partager avec lui, ce n'est pas toujours facile ! Surtout quand on est porteur d'un trouble, ou d'un handicap. Alors l'association "Les mains pour le dire" a créé des espaces de rencontre et de mixité. Parmi eux, "le musée Solidair", une pause culturelle dans le quotidien des aidants, des familles et des enfants porteurs de troubles ou de handicaps. Sarah Louis nous explique comment la langue des signes est un outil formidable !

This disquiet junto 0473 [part 2 of 3] track, "The Wolf's Baleen," was inspired by the disquiet junto 0472 [part 1 of 3] recording by Chris Ludwidge [https://soundcloud.com/chrisledwidge ] called "No. 34 in Am" [ https://soundcloud.com/chrisledwidge/no-34-in-am-disquiet0472 ].

-

"I was so overwhelmed by the work by composer, Chris Ludwidge, and his disquiet junto 0472 piece, "No. 34 in Am," that I promptly downloaded it and got to work for this week's Disquiet Junto assignment, 'Placebo Effect."

I had but three hours to compose my piece, "The Wolf's Baleen," and knew I would have to fly into it. What struck me about the floating fragments of Chris' piece was how much it reminded me of some of Brian Eno's piano fragments and treatments on "Ambient #1: Music for Airports"; thus, I set out instinctively to complement Chris' tinklings on the piano: I first learned his piano figures, mimicked them, and based emphatic stylings upon certain notes (namely the B-flat note), adding treatments, such as a rhythmic delay and erratic reverberation changes.

I would write more, but my time has run out at the studio.

Thanks, Chris!"

~ Michael

Somebody's Gonna Leave (disquiet0474) with Daniel Diaz & David Gibbs

Disquiet Junto Project 0474 – Complete a trio by adding a track to an existing duet by two other musicians.

How do I start? Singing is always dangerous, if you are not a singer… No… okay, this way: Some children can only be loved by their parents… one must stand by one's misdeeds … my microphone was broken … the true beauty of music is that it connects us, yes, this is it! 

I startet with the playlist https://soundcloud.com/disquiet/sets/disquiet-junto-project-0473 and went to "around the middle of it" and started listening until I found something I liked: https://soundcloud.com/disquiet/sets/disquiet-junto-project-0473 by https://soundcloud.com/daniel-diaz (guitar) and https://soundcloud.com/ray_cobley (synth). The strange mixture felt right and asked for some voice.

So I improvised with the text given by the titles (and some extra text). I did two takes. I added as much plugins as possible to hide the fact that I can't sing. As you can hear: Neither can I sing, nor am I able to hide it with production gimmicks.

Anyway, after slicing my vocals I somehow liked it. Yes, you will have to listen to it 20 times, drinking some high octane booze, but then you will discover the hidden beauty of this track. Thanks, guys, I really had a lot of fun with this!

Diaz/Cobley/Krakenkraft: Would Somebody Please Do Something? [disquiet0474]

My audio collage was made by setting up two radio music modules, one playing banks of unfinished tracks I'd done and another filled with audio recorded from public radio. I also set up the radio receiver on a Koma Field Kit to live scan an FM band, whilst the sources were triggered and scrubbed by a complex rats' nest of clock synced LFOs.
I can't really call it a composition as it was me simply setting up a process and documenting the chance encounter. Somewhat fortuitously the Field Kit locked onto a local station broadcasting Covid public service announcements hence the title. Consequently the mix is very rough and unpolished and the chance interplays of radio snippets is best heard on headphones.
