Really glad about this collaboration with him, who contributed a nice little drone sound and fantastic play on the saxophone

This week´s contribution to the Disquiet Junto.
Artwork: Clouds, by Susanne Stepbach
Sternenklar meaning starry or starlit in English

Being far away from my home and my instruments, but having my pc with some of my latest recordings with me, I thought about what I´d like to be wakened up to....so I came up with a special disquiet-version of my latest song "Sternenklar"; the original version will perhaps appear on a future album.

voice of Bassel Khartabil

I can't see you (disquiet0294)

Starting with the provided audio, I began the piece with the full audio clip, unmodified except for some reverb. I then added some piano (envelope and filter tweaked make it a little interesting) and some rhythm constructed from the audio. The piano plays a chord shifting from major to minor, and is then accompanied by a bell that plays the root (G#) but shifts in timing via a loop with an odd-numbered length. Done in Ableton Live and "performed" by turning clips on and off and shifting scenes, rather than constructing it.

18.8.17 WI:L - Seven Seconds[disquiet0294]

This past week was not an easy one in the US, nor in Barcelona (one of Suss Müsik’s favorite cities). We seem to exist today in a space between anticipation and the mundane. We fear that a catastrophe that may never occur will cause our demise, but the height of anxiety is in the waiting. As Richard Wright wrote in his classic novel Native Son: “There was but a long stretch of time that was very short, and then — the end.”

The sampled quote by Bassel Khartabil is a greeting followed quickly by an apology. “Hello I’m sorry,” sang Michael Stipe in the late 80’s. Suss Müsik imagines that most interactions contain at least some amount of regret for what might have been. We like to hope that times of crisis bring about a cycle of affirmation, but that’s not always how things work out. Bassel’s life was too short; the wait for his release took too long. Cruelly, both ended in a single event.

For this short piece, Suss Müsik interpreted Bassel’s vocal inflections as a form of notation. Early in the sampled recording, one can detect the plop plop that an Apple MacBook Pro makes when the sound volume is adjusted. We replicated this rhythm and used it to form base tempo. We then built upon this spine with bits of binaural cello and phased piano polyrhythms. 

The piece is titled Fatra, which means “interval” in Arabic.

Performing live in free improvisation is what I like most; on soundcloud, I upload solo-projects. These are inspired by solo improvisations, and in most cases a mix of improvisation and composition.
