Name: Fin D"Orage(disquiet0538) by K Joule
Duration: 3 min 29 s
Description: Fin d'Orage - 'the end of a storm', uses dissonance, comprising about a dozen different string samples, to depict the chaos of a storm, which could be meteorological or emotional. The storm resolves to drops of rain falling from trees, represented by harp and bell sounds.

An orchestral masterpiece in my humble opinion.

Disquiet Junto Project 0599: Minimal(ist) Blend

How the sounds were created might best be described as follows: 
- Recorded 5 polyrhythmic guitar tracks (in 3, 4, 5 and 7) live, over the entire duration of the track ~3.5 minutes
- Disguised them, only allowing each to come to the fore occasionally
- Added up-front metallic sounds, single hit percussion and a bassy pad
- Mixed those ingredients to allow different aspects to shine in turn.

Thanks @disquiet and @tobiasreber for this inspiring prompt!

Disquiet Junto Project 0620: Beat Accrual Accrual
The Assignment: Turn someone’s slow-build beat into a finished track.

I decided to build on Going Modular's "Disquieting Polyrhythm" because of the haunting, repetitive synth and dramatic build of the piece. It's a soundscape that I've been living in now for days. I only made one alteration which was to short it a bit in the last two thirds. https://soundcloud.com/goingmodular

I also really wanted to see if I could combine that with yet another junto from last week just to be cheeky about the assignment. Lee Evans' "Euclidian Dub" worked quite well with this, bringing it in just at the end of the song, making this slow, driving, building piece extra climactic and almost dancy in the end. (https://soundcloud.com/hippieswearingmuzzles/euclidean-dub-disquiet0619)

I haven't been able to write lyrics for a long time but this really sparked it for me and I was able to jot out some words that relate to a lot that's on my mind - the Israel-Hamas war, a complicated relationship with an ill and possibly dying father, being almost 40 and still not knowing if I'll get to be a mother or "just" an artist or both...all the things! It felt cathartic to express some of that. (AND pretty vulnerable).

I love creating choirs in my music. I also loved the idea of once again building from something simpler to something more complex so I had the backing choir slowly emerge while the lead vocal gradually got more crunchy. I added a subby bass partway through and strings to mimic the melody of the synth and bring it out more for the climax. 

Oh! And it was raining when I recorded and I just needed that sound in there.

Thank you so much to Going Modular and Lee Evans for your creations!
