This week's assignment left me somewhat conflicted. 

I wanted to leave enough room for Disquiet Junto members to take parts of the track and add their ideas. On the other hand, it should sound like a track and not like an assembly of 4-bar loops. I hope I left enough space for you to add. If not, there's always the possibility to EQ the s*** out of it. 

Second, 60 BPM feels like 120 BPM when you add 16th hi-hats to it... but I couldn't resist doing it.

Blink [disquiet0609]

First Disquiet

Digitakt + Syntakt + Norns + Mood2 + Guitar + Blooper

Piano sample from another project

Small guitar ambient guitar sample using Blooper as a fast delay with the glitch effect. Created tones using sustainer pickup and fading in to the delay line.

Kept it minimal to allow for space if other instruments come.

Added reverb kick on Syntakt

Added hi hat on 1, 3, 4 - just felt better

Added notes on Norns Awake application into Mood2 reverb. Captured small glitchy samples.

Lots of repeating ideas so I grabbed a few passes of the glitch to leave in as a choice.

Added a lot of gain in post processing. Need to look at my gain staging!

This was done for disquiet0609. Apparently for remixing by others. Really simple, I'm still learning. Here's what I wrote on the message board...

Ok well, if you want words, here you go. If you want anything else, lucky we'll be remixing these. 

This was done to a drum track that I later removed, it's about the most basic blips and blobs you can imagine. Hope you all have fun with it!

Disquiet Junto Project 0609: Speed Limit Pt 1
The Assignment: Record a track at precisely 60 BPM with the intention someone will subsequently rework it.

I'm traveling right now so all I had was my iPad. It's 60bpm, Cminor and 4/4. I sequenced something with MiRack Modular in 60bpm but I found it too boring. I put it into my favourite granular Samplr and resequenced it with 60bpm and some odd delay. I added some of my own voice to get us into the pop charts. There is even some live pool water noise field recording, but maybe to silent. 

The cover cat is owned by the owners of the house I live at the moment, and it's sleeping the whole day. Have fun, whoever adds to this track.

And yes, it was originally meant to be named "catnAp" …

[disquiet0609] 60 Not 64 Or Is It

Disquiet0609 - 60bpm

My submission for the Disquiet Junto 0609 with the assignment: Record a track at precisely 60 BPM with the intention someone will subsequently rework it.

I just viewed Tobias Reber's interview with Marc Weidenbaum, so I thought: let's make something in Éliane Radigue style. Frankly that's all there is to say to it.

Speed Limit Pt 1 (disquiet0609)

Disquiet Junto Project 0609: Speed Limit Pt 1
The Assignment: Record a track at precisely 60 BPM with the intention someone will subsequently rework it.

Listening to the other tracks people did, maybe I should have been a little more minimal. Well, there’s no bass really. So, I left out something. I tried to focus on dynamics for this one, with the swelling guitar chords, contrasted with the fading synth rhythm every two measures. Also got a chance to use this weird 2 in 1 wood block/shaker my friend got me for my birthday. Scale is B Hungarian Major with no 7 or 5 so it’s pentatonic. Probably a name for it but I don’t know what it is.
