Disquiet Junto #0638

Whatever you say, Mr Spaghetti [disquiet0638]

Disquiet Junto Project 0638: Center (3 of 3)
The Assignment: Complete a trio begun by two other musicians.

---

Track notes: "Lucky Link Village" from Creatures_Once/@miraclemiles (via @SinnySounds) jumped out at me straight away and got me thinking about a guitar accompaniment along the lines of Ry Cooder, Haruomi Hosono and Makoto Kubota. I recorded a simple fingerpicked acoustic guitar pattern which found its way around G tonic of the tuned percussion. I then added some slide guitar around this and affected both guitars with some phasing and flanging to give it a dreamy feeling. Then a field recording of the ocean lapping at the shore seemed entirely fitting.

This is an asynchronous duet with https://soundcloud.com/dandante and https://soundcloud.com/blaaroed. 

I really enjoyed the Suborbital Hang Glider piece from @tt16tt and @dandante. I hope they forgive me for making the abstract approach of the drone a bit more tangible. I added a bassline with Generate, some strings with with Blisko Viola, metallic noises from Kinetic Metal, and a simple ping with AAS Chromaphone. The additions sit right in the middle of the mix.

Disquiet Junto Project 0638: Center (3 of 3)
The Assignment: Complete a trio begun by two other musicians.

Step 1: This week’s Disquiet Junto project is the third in a sequence that encourages and rewards asynchronous collaboration. This week you will be adding music to a pre-existing track, which you will source from the previous week’s Junto project (disquiet.com/0637). Note that you are finishing a trio: you’re creating the third part of what two previous musicians began, filling the space between them. Please keep this in mind.

Step 2: The plan is for you to record an original piece of music, on any instrumentation of your choice, as a complement to a pre-existing track. First, however, you must select the piece of music to which you will be adding your own music. There are tracks by numerous musicians to choose from. 

(...)

When choosing a track, consider checking out the two previous projects’ discussion threads, as there may be additional information in them that could be of use, such as BPM or key signature:

https://llllllll.co/t/disquiet-junto-project-0637-right-2-of-3/

https://llllllll.co/t/disquiet-junto-project-0636-left-1-of-3/

Step 3: Record a piece of music, roughly the length of the piece of music you selected in Step 2. Your track should complement the piece from Step 2, and it should be placed dead center between the left and right stereo channels. When composing and recording your part, do not alter the original piece of music at all. To be clear: the track you upload won’t be your piece of music alone; it will be a combination of the track from Step 2 and yours.

Step 4: Also be sure, when done, to make the finished track downloadable, because it may be used by someone else in a subsequent Junto project.

Step 5:  In normal circumstances, Junto projects have a one-track-per-participant limit. However, as with the preceding project that led up to this one, you can contribute more than one track this week. You can do up to three total this time. For your first, you can choose any track from the duets, no matter how many times others may have employed it. If you choose to do a second or third, you should do a track no on else has used yet (it’s understood that between when you select a duet track and finish your trio, someone else may have popped up and used it, which is perfectly fine). Throughout the project I will keep an updated list in this Google Drive document of what has been utilized:

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1kDorIMT9j_nQQPXACYpMPe4B86T2QD5Xvv98XAOS4UE/edit?pli=1#gid=0

The goal is for many as people as possible to benefit from the experience of being part of an asynchronous collaboration. That, foremost, is the spirit of this project.

Tasks Upon Completion:

Label: Include “disquiet0638” (no spaces/quotes) in the name of your track.

Upload: Post your track to a public account (SoundCloud preferred but by no means required). 

Share: Post your track and a description explanation at https://llllllll.co/t/disquiet-junto-project-0638-center-3-of-3/

Discuss: Listen to and comment on the other tracks.

Length: The length is up to you. Stick close to the length of the track yours adds to.

Deadline: Monday, March 25, 2024, 11:59pm (that is: just before midnight) wherever you are.

The Assignment: Complete a trio begun by two other musicians.

I looked in the sheet for something unused and opted for https://soundcloud.com/xhg/disquiet0637-marsh-bones-factory-with-raincat because of the sheer feeling of reality it had to me. I played different instruments but nothing worked for me. So instead I used old samples, a recording of a turnstile on a train track near Munich and a door that creaked wonderfully in the wind near Assisi, Italy. It seemed to me to fit in wonderfully with the duo's palpable spatiality.

Conversation (disquiet0638) — with xhg and Marc Eisenschink

Thank you @AlvaroDeCampos and @blisterpop. Wonderful track you gave me to work one.
As was the case last week, the instructions for this week’s project are fairly detailed, so please read them at disquiet.com/0638 15 (rather than me stuffing them into a post here).

This is the third phase of a three-phase sequence over the course of as many weeks during which, consecutively and asynchronously, musicians build trios together.

You can participate in any or all three of the three projects. If you participated in last week’s project, please note these two things:

    be sure to set your track as downloadable
    to avoid bot issues on Soundcloud, make sure its license is set to allow creative reuse

Also important: In normal circumstances, Junto projects have a one-track-per-participant limit. However, as with the preceding project that led up to this one, you can contribute more than one track this week. The details on that are in Step 5 of the project instructions 9.

This post popped up at disquiet.com/0638 9 (thanks, powers of automation) shortly after 12:10am Pacific Time on Thursday, March 21. (I was asleep at the time.) The email containing those instructions went out around the same time, also automatically, via juntoletter.disquiet.com. (We recently switched over from TinyLetter, because TinyLetter was shut down by its owner, Mailchimp, at the end of last month.) Come morning, after I woke up, I posted the instructions here, and at my Mastodon account, plus Bluesky, Threads, and Instagram, etc. And if you’re on a platform, like Mastodon or Instagram, that uses hashtags, please use the #DisquietJunto tag. Much appreciated.
