"They Call Him Sunlight, They Call Him the Eagle"

Säure Adler was founded back in 2012 in the psychedelic city of Poznań, Poland, by A.J. Kaufmann (voice, acoustic guitar, songwriter) and Kacper Wojaczek (keyboards). The duet played psychedelic folk with poetic lyrics, releasing material independently on bandcamp, performing gigs wherever possible. In 2015 Kacper Wojaczek left, being replaced by Radu Rusanu (keyboards, electric guitar, bass guitar). The band switched directions into a more full-on krautrock / psychedelic rock sound continuing releasing new materials on bandcamp. In 2016 Radu Rusanu was replaced by Luna Lenina (bass guitar, drum machines), and the band re-located to London. The new line-up recorded the "Street Dada Brutalismus" album, which is still available on the band's bandcamp site. In 2018 Säure Adler joined the German netlabel Aumega Project, Germany's leading label for krautrock and psychedelic music and atmospheres, releasing among others the "Pilzmusik" album in early 2019. Also in 2019 A.J. tried to get the band back to their roots with various sessions in limited line-ups (duets), and the sessions brought the "acid eagle" back to their hometown of Poznań with new, highly psychoactive sounds. The band is still active, releasing material on bandcamp, and now, thanks to Ramble Records, their debut album titled simply "Säure Adler" appears on vinyl. The eagle logo design is by long-time friend of the band, Mr. Justin Jackley. Currently Mr. Kaufmann and Mrs. Wunderlicht are in the process of organizing new sessions and gigs for their original Kosmische Punkmusik sound visions.

The title (translated roughly to parties in the bush) is inspired by some wild psy trance parties I've been to a long time ago :D

Disquiet Junto Project 0572: Rhythm Kit
The Assignment: Make a beat that someone else will add to.

On ebay I shot an old, rancid, scuffed Casio PT-1 as a restoration object for the holidays. It came yesterday and at the same time the disquiet junto mail came in. And it worked. Ah, I liked these rhumba rhythms like I did 40 years ago. Originally I just wanted to contribute that. But then I recorded a 4 bar loop and used 4 tracks on reaper to play around with some fx. I exported it and gave it some structure in Reaper.  It's now only the original loop plus fx. I think there is plenty of room for a second voice. 

The pure PT-1 is hearable in the beginning. I also put the original loop to https://freesound.org/people/krakenkraft/sounds/665090/ 

It's plain vanilla 120bpms.

Casio PT-1 Rhumba 120bpm [disquiet0572]

This week we had to take a rhythm track created by someone else for last weeks junto, and make it into a complete track.  I took a rhythm by @half-unusual  
(https://soundcloud.com/half-unusual/half-kit-disquiet0572-70-bpm)
as it instantly had me jamming on the keys.  This track owes a bit of a debt to Jarre's Last Rhumba which I have been playing a lot lately, but just in terms of a few of the bass and rhythm patterns, which I have gone to town with a bit.

Floating Free Improv (Disquiet0573)

Disquiet Junto Project 0573: Float Mode
The Assignment: Add material atop a pre-existing beat to form a complete track.

Note: This week’s project is the second part of a two-parter, following up last week’s, but you don’t need to have participated last week in order to do this one.

Step 1: You will be adding musical elements atop beats created last week by other members of the Disquiet Junto. Select a beat. There are beats from 30 or so musicians in the SoundCloud playlist:

=====================================================
Track notes:

Last week, Daniel Diaz's lovely jazz-oriented track stuck for me as something I'd like to rework.

https://soundcloud.com/daniel-diaz/2022wcgroove-disquiet0572

Without a really clear idea of where I wanted to take the track, I started by adding some sombre synth sounds over the top of Daniel's rhythm track and listening back to where things were going. I then listened to the harmonic aspects of the chord progression and reached out for my Telecaster, coaxing a kind of Bill Frissel meets Brokeback (via Tortoise) vibe...I think. Lastly, I added a little phasing to the rhythm track during the guitar solo and outro.
