Disquiet Junto Project 0556: Gabber Ambient
The Assignment: Field-test a hybrid genre.

I started with a 200 bpm Kickdrum in Live. It seemed to be enough for some minutes. I added a lot of things, just to not be lazy. From there I went one by feeling. It was basically a loop with minimal variations when I exported stems and recut the track in Reaper by destroying a lot of things. I am really neither a fan of Kickdrums nor from bpms faster than 90, but after all I liked the track.

This track is intended to create the soundscape of a superficially quiet place, where the hectic noises of industrial manufacturing processes blend with the calm melodies of strings and piano.
The string part was played by a Sonic Pi algorithm programmed exclusivly for this track - it reacts on Midi-notes and creates highly randomized sections based on these inputs.

The music was inspired by the Disquiet Junto Project 0556 (see below), the proposed Gabber-music inspired its interpretation as machine-induced production-sounds.

firstly i took the image associated with this project and edited it via the Image Glitch Tool on github (https://snorpey.github.io/jpg-glitch/)

I took this image and then found an online png to wav converter (as found here: https://nsspot.herokuapp.com/imagetoaudio/) which created a 20 second sound snippet.

I took this in ableton and repitched the parts and jammed it out on my pc keyboard.

For me the image suggest stains on a table cloth, sweaty wine glasses and bottles...
I started recording a beautiful plastic bottle I had around, then added some simple drums (I can't drum more that 2 things at once, so here it's bass drum and hi hat)
The added some wine glasses (rubbed) and chamber crystal bowls (hit w/mallets) , some of my favourite samples.
The bass it's a freebie I recently found and wanted to test, just plain 808 bass sound in one octave. very nice (808 BM4 Lite)

for this project:

"Disquiet Junto Project 0557: Condensation Is a Form of Change
The Assignment: Interpret a graphic score that depicts four phases.

A combined play on a Brian Eno phrase and a John Cage visual motif is pretty much foundational Disquiet Junto territory. This week, interpret this image as a graphic score..."

Four x Four (disquiet0557)

Disquiet Junto Project 0557: Condensation Is a Form of Change
The Assignment: Interpret a graphic score that depicts four phases.

I didn't want to understand the picture as a kind of timeline to be read from left to right. From the beginning I felt the urge for simultaneity, as it is inherent in images. I saw four or five elements, of which the lower/left one is incomprehensible, condensing on a background and perhaps disappearing again like stains from a coffee cup.

With that in mind, I started playing around in Live, mostly with samplers like DecentSampler, Soundpaint, and Spitfire Labs, and a lot of destructive FX. I wanted to achieve the mysteriousness that I felt myself when I looked at the image. The only discernible motif kind of emerged as I played around, it was actually too clear to me, but then I didn't want to go without it.
