30 <---- 60 bpm [disquiet #0610] w/Debroc

Done for Disquiet Junto 0610

This was fun. This is mostly a quick sample of a percussive 4//lIGhT's 60 bpm Stomp bit, repeated excessively, with a tiny guitar-sounding bit from @tristan_louth_robins 's Refactored Drift. Filled out with @XHG 's Acrostic Speed Limit and some from a 4th one, but I forget.

Swrolds Amay - disquiet0610

I slowed the two tracks (“analoc - Blink” and “Andeas Kitzmann - disquet0609”) to 30 bpm with audacity, then mixed and processed the two tracks with csound, finally mastered with flstdio. Thanks to "analoc" Anatol Locker and Andeas Kitzmann.

destroying two - disquiet0610

Disquiet Junto Project 0610: Speed Limit Pt 2
The Assignment: Combine two or more pre-existing 60 BPM tracks into something new — at half the speed.

I selected two tracks that I liked, but more by incident, because I liked many (and most of them felt already finished). But with Refactored Drift from Tristan Louth-Robins (https://soundcloud.com/red_robin/disquiet_junto_0603-refactored-drift-60-bpm) and Transient Melter from ATW (https://soundcloud.com/atw/transient-melter-60bpm-disquiet-0609?in=disquiet/sets/disquiet-junto-project-0609) I had the fantasy, that they would make a nice combination of melody and sound. I was very lazy and just slowed them to half speed. I also wanted to keep the result under five minutes, and I wanted both tracks to have some kind of a solo (because the ATW track more or less forced it). I edited and recut in Reaper by taste and justification, and I ignored scales and syncopation correctness (not totally, but they are surely not always "proper"). No additional knick-knacks but some subtile FX.

Thanks to Tristan Louth-Robins (Refactored Drift) and ATW (Transient Melter).

Refactored Melter [disquiet0610]

For this assignment I used my own submission from last week paired with a.a.miles Key Limit which then morphs into Michele Isoni's Chirper which is finally joined by Sunbear's lovely submission. All the parts where brought into ableton, slowed down by half and then warped back to their original pitch. After it was all sequenced I then used a bunch of puremagnetic effects to give the whole thing that worn out vibe (which also resulted in some strange drop outs and flutters which i left)

Many thanks to all that got involved, so many interesting takes on the assignment!

Blues In Two Phases [disquiet0610]

For this week's submission, I combined three tracks from last week's prompt:

Each track was slowed to 30bpm. I left Analoc's track intact, then chopped and changed Melondruie's, and Fake Genius' tracks to suit. All the sounds in the recording come from these three tracks.

Tristan Louth-Robins & ATW - Transient Drift (disquiet0610)

A self-generating patch on semi-modular and modular and sent through a spring reverb before being recorded into Ableton. There, the 'melody' was converted to MIDI using Ableton's built-in converter. Both them melody and MIDI were then played at half-speed. The melody was forced into the Lydian mode, and played with Reason Studios' Objekt. At the same time, Objekt was being resonated by the original recording (pitch processed into Lydian), via its sidechain channel. The resultant combination was then processed with the Remants granular delay, a Valhalla Supermassive delay, and the Wavesfactory Echo Cat tape delay simulation.

disquiet0612 - "the conversation"

I assembled a handful of drum vignettes using different types of sequencing methods, using recordings of rusty metal sounds from an airbnb I visited in Elmore, VT in July 2023. (Notes to follow)

"Rust Drum Collage" was submitted as part of ​the Disquiet Junto Project 0612: Drum Vector. The Assignment: Walk the listener through variations on the same percussive instrument.

Rust Drum Collage • [disquiet 0612]

Step 1: Pick a single percussion instrument.

Step 2: Record between 4 and 12 different short examples (roughly 20 to 60 seconds each) of playing that instrument. Imagine that each recording is by a different musician exercising a different aspect of the instrument. Make no deliberate attempt to match key or tempo or sonic quality between them.

Step 3: Imagine moving through space over the course of time, and encountering the sounds — overlapping somewhat — as you proceed. Arrange the recordings over the course of a track so that at least one and at most five of the examples are audible at any one time. To further the spatial movement, each could fade in at the beginning and fade out. They might, as well, move from position to position within the stereo field.

Step 4: If you wish, consider adding a noise bed underneath the entire piece to sew all of the pieces together, to provide a sense of the space one is moving through.

Eight Important Steps When Your Track Is Done:

Step 1: Include “disquiet0612” (no spaces or quotation marks) in the name of your tracks.

Step 2: If your audio-hosting platform allows for tags, be sure to also include the project tag “disquiet0612” (no spaces or quotation marks). If you’re posting on SoundCloud in particular, this is essential to subsequent location of tracks for the creation of a project playlist.

Step 3: Upload your tracks. It is helpful but not essential that you use SoundCloud to host your tracks.

Step 4: Post your track in the following discussion thread at llllllll.co:

https://llllllll.co/t/disquiet-junto-project-0612-drum-vector/

Step 5: Annotate your track with a brief explanation of your approach and process.

Step 6: If posting on social media, please consider using the hashtag #DisquietJunto so fellow participants are more likely to locate your communication.

Step 7: Then listen to and comment on tracks uploaded by your fellow Disquiet Junto participants.

Step 8: Also join in the discussion on the Disquiet Junto Slack. Send your email address to marc@disquiet.com for Slack inclusion.

Note: Please post one track for this weekly Junto project. If you choose to post more than one, and do so on SoundCloud, please let me know which you’d like added to the playlist. Thanks.

Additional Details:

Length: The length is up to you. How long a walk do you want to take the listener on?

Deadline: This project’s deadline is the end of the day Monday, September 25, 2023, at 11:59pm (that is, just before midnight) wherever you are. It was posted on Thursday, September 21, 2023.

Upload: When participating in this project, be sure to include a description of your process in planning, composing, and recording it. This description is an essential element of the communicative process inherent in the Disquiet Junto. Photos, video, and lists of equipment are always appreciated.

Download: It is always best to set your track as downloadable and allowing for attributed remixing (i.e., a Creative Commons license permitting non-commercial sharing with attribution, allowing for derivatives).

For context, when posting the track online, please be sure to include this following information:

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.
