Let's Bring It Back To The Waiting Room (disquiet0515)

Disquiet Junto 0552

driving through cultivated landscape, a granulated country loop is punctuated by commentary courtesy of ag radio

Nebraska Radio and Me

Just a humble tribute to Die Hard.
Written&recorded by Erin Lovett, Mixed by Patrick Brick

Purchase on Bandcamp: http://bit.ly/2hytiDx

Lyrics:
His mother called him Hans, Gruber from his father's side 
And he was German-born but meant for so much more 
A cowboy from New York took a red-eye to LA 
And he was filled with hope until he learned that Holly changed her name 
(Genero) 

Well everything will change this Christmas 
Yes, everything will change this Christmas 
Whether you are falling in love or falling from a tower 
Everything will change this Christmas 

Ho Ho Ho, now I have a machine gun (2x) 

Come out to the coast, we'll get together, have a few laughs 
There's a hundred million dollars in the vault 
And John Mclane's running through shattered glass 
Shattered like the hopes of young Hans Gruber 
He was no common thief 
And on that day he fell from Nakatomi he would forever more live on in infamy 

Well everything will change this Christmas 
Yes, everything will change this Christmas 
Whether you are falling in love or falling from a tower 
Everything will change this Christmas 

Yippee-ki-yay mother fucker, yippie-ki-yay (2x) 
(And the censored for TV version) 
Yippie-ki-yay Mr. Falcon, yippie-ki-yay (2x)

Everything Will Change This Christmas: The Ballad of Hans Gruber

Step 1: Locate the latest instrument, piece of music/sound software, or related technology that has come into your possession. 
Step 2: Employ only the single thing identified in Step 1 to compose and record a short track.

My latest purchase was a Tibetan Bowl you see in the photo, I bought it last Sunday in a garage sale here in Paris.  It was a deal and included 100 incense sticks ....
Now: my previous purchase was, like a year ago, another Tibetan Bowl, so I did many recordings using that one  in the past year. But the challenge forces me to go back into the bronze age. Again.

I used the two sound you make with this thing, _Tap_ that's a "hit" on the edge of the bowl with the fat wood stick/mallet and a _Rub_ drone turning the stick around the bowl's edges.
Then I just pitched up and down to several different notes and constructed this soundscape. But the source is just that single bowl. And 40 sec Lexicon Reverbs with Wah Wah...

No synth used off course, nothing but the bowl.

Valentine's Bowl (disquiet0372)

i think the last instrument i got was art pyrite softsynth. i try not to get too much new stuff; work with what i've got (depth v breadth / necessity is the mother of invention etc)

i played for a few minutes and turned up the depth and feedback on the drone setting throughout. weirdly when i looked at the recording it said i'd been playing for over 9 minutes. just did a little limiting and normalized it.

Tape Collage by The Land [disquiet0478]

My 33 1/3 series book about the Aphex Twin album <i>Selected Ambient Works Volume II</i> was published in 2014. The book was one of the top 5 bestselling titles for the calendar year, and in 2015 was ranked by Pitchfork as one of the "33 best" of the 100-plus books in the 33 1/3 series. It has subsequently been translated into Japanese (2019) and Spanish (2018)

Since 2012 I have moderated the Disquiet Junto group, which began on SoundCloud. More at disquiet.com/junto. 

I've written for Nature, Pitchfork, The Wire, Down Beat, Boing Boing, NewMusicBox, Red Bull Music Academy, Art Practical, the website of The Atlantic, and many other publications. 

I've exhibited sound art at galleries in Los Angeles (Crewest), Manhattan (apex art), and Dubai (DUTAC), and I had a audio-visual installation at the San Jose Museum of Art as part of its 45th anniversary.

And since 1996 I've run the website Disquiet.com about the intersection of sound, art, and technology.
