My attempt at the 599th disquiet junto assignment: Make a piece of music that combines self-contained minimalist parts (https://disquiet.com/0599/)
Also my first my first submission to any of this ever

disquiet0599

A mix of five drone sequences of different frequencies, each with added modulation & varying dynamics.
I have kept this one fairly short for the purposes of the Disquiet project. Some longer drones with visuals on Youtube, including:

Using the same pattern(s) as the shorter version - as explained visually @ https://youtu.be/n2O2IV2POQM - but extended to 10 minutes ...

Enjoy! 🤗

This was my contribution for Disquiet Junto Project 0599: Minimal(ist) Blend (part 3 of a Disquiet Junto Éliane Radique themed project done in collaboration with the 2023 Musikfestival Bern)

Here’s a copy of my post on the Disquiet Junto 0599 discussion thread:
My original intent was to create something very experimental but this evolved into more of an ambient soundscape. I tried to keep it within the minimal description but might have strayed a little beyond that in some sections. I used seven parts that I morphed and modulated using various effects (see below) in Ableton Live. An additional track using Audio Things Noises was used to create a foundation. 

The following plugins/effects were used: Slate+Ash Choreographs and Landforms, Sugar Bytes Aparillo, Amazing Noises Grain Scanner (M4L), Bleass Granulizer, Audio Damage Other Desert Cities, Strymon Big Sky and Eventide Blackhole.

Disquiet Junto Project 0599: Minimal(ist) Blend
The Assignment: Make a piece of music that combines self-contained minimalist parts.

I started with four self-contained ambient drone tracks, all created with granular synthesis. Then I wanted to mix them with different granular tools, but they lost their character and I didn't like the result. Then I wanted to mix them so that each of the four tracks overlapped once with every other track (about 50%), both front and back. I thought this would be clever because it would be the opposite of the Musifestival Berns theme of "√" overlapping 4x4 tracks (^2!), but you only seem to need 12 to overlap all the tracks together … Anyway: the crossfades are simple in-out mixes, and as a result of my efforts, you'll hear each of the four tracks (mostly) just as they crossfade with another. The result is 30 minutes long, sorry for that, but I liked this version so much more than all the others. - Is it 'minimal'? I doubt it, but I had fun.


For scientific reasons I also uploaded the self-contained ambient drone tracks:

https://soundcloud.com/winterer/sour
https://soundcloud.com/winterer/salty
https://soundcloud.com/winterer/sweet 
https://soundcloud.com/winterer/bitter

All covers by Midjourney ("a cover for an ambient album named sour / salty / sweet / bitter"…), final cover is a blend of them. I was not able to prevent Midjourney from using halucinated writings.
