This track is about the air we breathe, the breath which signifies life.

It was inspired by the Disquiet Junto Project 0539:

Disquiet Junto Project 0562: Sheep Music
The Assignment: Record something to help someone fall asleep.

I did a lot of tracks, all of them endet in being "too full" for my idea of falling asleep. This one, based again on my breathing, felt monotonous enough to to the job.

The sheep on the cover image is in fact a German Heath (German name: "Heidschnucke", which is quite a cute word.)

Disquiet Junto Project 0562: Sheep Music

The Assignment: Record something to help someone fall asleep.

There is just one step: Record something to help someone fall asleep.

Track notes: 

Over the weekend, I deployed an AudioMoth on a reef south of the town where I grew up on the Fleurieu Peninsula. I'd configured it to record over 24 hours at one-hour intervals for a minute at a time. Once I retrieved it the following morning and listened back to some of the recordings in my car, I got pretty much what I expected: lots of tidal movement and the transient sounds that accompany it.

Back home in the studio, I took a couple of short excerpts of the scratchy sound of sand and broken shell that accompanied the wake of passing tides. I recorded two different excerpts L/R to my Morphagene and controlled some timestretching and pitch parameters with a clock and CV. The output from the Morphagene is broadcast to a network of small loudspeakers - some of which are housed in paper cups or with little bowls on top (to act as resonators.) In addition to this, I placed my iPhone with some soft noise playing in the background and recorded a few minutes with my portable ambisonic mic. The resulting recording was rendered to a binaural mix - ideal for headphone listening.

I've always liked rough, slightly consistent (non-musical) textures to facilitate sleep sometimes, so I often find myself listening to Rolf Julius or Steve Roden. I guess this piece - and the aesthetic of its visual presentation - is quite Julius/Roden-esque as well.

Disquiet Junto Project 0563: Digital Magical Realism
The Assignment: What does this imaginary genre sound like?

After discarding two tracks, which where just “too magic” (https://soundcloud.com/winterer/rippling-along and https://soundcloud.com/winterer/time-drowning-mechanism, if someone is interested), I went to this one, which may have “too much realism”. The idea of Digital Magical Realism was to combine realistic field recordings that don’t match realistically, plus synths that mimic real instruments, but not realistically enough, because of … digital reasons or so.

Cover track image made with DALL·E, "a man carrying a synthesizer walking at a seashore at night, photorealistic". What a fun tool…
