Fake Genius on the left, Torpid Scorpion on the RIght. 

Added a rhythm played on the TR8S with a second pass to hand-crank filter and delay effects.

This pie is waiting for a third to fill in the missing piece.

Disquiet Junto Project 0698: Second Third
The Assignment: Record the second third of a trio.

There are two versions of the instructions for this week’s project — one very short, the other very long.

Very short version (about 25 words): Select a track from last week’s project (disquiet.com/0697), pan it to the left, and add your own line to the right, leaving room in the center for someone to eventually turn it into a trio.

Disquiet Junto Project 0698: Second Third
The Assignment: Record the second third of a trio.

There were many pieces I liked a lot from part 1 and I tried out a couple of combinations. 
I settled on the track by Samplair: https://soundcloud.com/user-248104983/disquiet0697. 

I combined this with a recording of some ‘extended technique’ zither. 
The extended technique being that the zither is excited using a fast rotating disc with a magnet attached to it. Depending on the frequency with which the magnet rotates (compared to the resonant frequencies of each string), it can force oscillations in one or more strings. The sound this produces is quite rich and complex with lots of movement.

Interestingly, the combination of these sounds, which can at times be quite harsh and distorted, with Samplair’s ‘nightmare carnival’ made for a track that I found… rather soothing.

This was my contribution for Disquiet Junto Project 0698: Second Third. The Assignment: Record the second third of a trio.

Here’s a copy of my post on the Disquiet Junto 0698 discussion thread on Lines:

Hard to decide since there were so many cool tracks. Selected “B Drone” by @morgulbee / @alanblip for my first contribution. Hoping to work with another track before the Monday deadline. Created the complimentary sequence using Slate+Ash Choreographs in Ableton Live and panned it to the right while setting the original to the left. Photo by Sven Mieke via Unsplash.

This was my second contribution for Disquiet Junto Project 0698: Second Third. The Assignment: Record the second third of a trio.

Here’s a copy of my post on the Disquiet Junto 0698 discussion thread on Lines:

For the second track, I went with “Mr. Bowed Jangles” by @tristan_louth_robins. I extended the length of it by looping the piece 2.5 times. Then created the right channel track using Dillon Bastan’s Max For Live granular looper device Iota in Ableton Live.

Bowed And Jangled Farther [disquiet0698]

The final addition to complete the annual Disquiet Junto asynchronous trio. This contribution builds on the original keyboards of Aaron Hofman and Andreas Kitzmann's addition of a gritty drone with a performance on ebow guitar and simulated Leslie cabinet.

The Apparition That Asked Me to Dance

The 700th Week of Disquiet Junto! 
Just after lunch I read this weeks challenge and was looking at my computer the window directly ahead of me! I snapped the photo and decided to record out the window for about 10 minutes. 
You don't see much from my window, a green fence / shed with a defunct biomas unit inside, part of my car is visable. The windows are quite dirty, there are trees at the top of the photo. 
I live in a rural spot, nothing about expect fields and trees and I was drawn to the addiotnal line of info 'Brief can be neighborly'  - As I have no neighbours I wanted the field recording to be central and the wind was nice but I put some effects on these sounds and just started to play around with notes and keys until this nice slow track took shape.  There is a nice airplane about 2 minutes in.  I was looking out the window all afternoon as I made this, watching the leaves and branches swaying away!   

Disquiet Junto Project 0700: View Frame
The Assignment: Share the view and some sounds inspired by the view.

Step 1: Take a photo out your window, with a little bit of the frame in view. Show people a glimpse of your world.

Step 2: Record a short, simple piece of music inspired (or otherwise informed) by what you see.
