Touch the Moonlight

Touch the Moonlight (NaviarHaiku511)

Samuel Beckett’s Ill Seen Ill Said describes the final, solitary days of an elderly woman. Written as a play, the work reads more like a stream-of-consciousness narrative with disassociated visuals symbolizing human frailty. 

Like much of Beckett’s work, not a whole lot happens in terms of action. The main character spends her time watching the evening sky, relating to the stoic loneliness of stones, and recalling fragments of a long life passed.

The opinion here is that truly haunting material succeeds in moments of anticipation. When viewing a horror movie, for example, we’re more anxious of what could happen rather than what eventually does. The following passage from Ill Seen Ill Said describes such a moment:

"All dark in the cabin while she whitens afar. Silence but for the imaginary murmur of flakes beating on the roof. And every now and then a real creak. Her company. Here without having to close the eye sees her afar. Motionless in the snow under the snow. The buttonhook trembles from its nail as if a night like any other. Facing the black curtain the chair exudes its solitude."

For this Junto piece, Suss Müsik used handmade sonic devices to manipulate sounds recorded from room ambience. Taking select attributes to their maximum created surprising effects. The result is a quiet yet creepy atmosphere in which nothing “haunting” actually takes place, allowing the imagination to conjure impending scenes of great disturbance.

The piece is entitled Ill Heard and was recorded live to 8-track.

Poltergeist Party (disquiet0617)

In Switzerland, Halloween is not the best studied or understood tradition, so please excuse my submission, if it does not meet expectations. I based the whole thing on a sample folder I found on my drive, downloaded in the late 90s and never used before. Many sounds were too gory for my feeble nerves so I stuck with cats, birds and the like. I then made some scary noises with my guitar and looped them. Now, kids, is that an appropriate soundtrack for a scary short story about collecting sweets?

Disquiet0617 - Sounds Of Horror

Disquiet Junto Project 0617: Haunt Scape
The Assignment: Halloween is coming up. Do your thing.

In the haunting shadows of a disquiet Halloween, I craved a genuine fright, so I summoned an 8-track version of Bitwig with a cruel code from the sinister pages of "ComputerMusic" magazine (August 2023). Since that blood-curdling Superbooth 23 affair, the eerie Cthulhu call of this DAW has haunted my dreams, yet the terrifying thought of the time needed for mastering IT always kept me at bay. Now, having dared to dance with this phantom... it's eerily … but okay. Alas, this 8-track version, drained by nocturnal vampires, has had many of its limbs horrifically amputated. Thus, even armed with my trusty modular hatchet, it's hard to gauge if braving this ghostly realm is worth it. Be that as it may, a few nocturnal samples, mummified synths, and a disemboweled Lyra8 impro might not raise the dead from the graves, but together they gave me some creeps. (A little bit.)

The Synths Have Eyes [disquiet0617]

his was my contribution for Disquiet Junto Project 0617: Haunt Scape

Here’s a copy of my post on the Disquiet Junto 0617 discussion thread:

This week's prompt coincided nicely with a playful Halloween inspired piece I've been working on the past couple days. It's actually something I started a year ago that I never had a chance to complete till now. It's more of a mildly spooky ditty than a haunt scape. 

Used Ableton Live Bouncy Notes and Patter for sequencing. Created a melody track using the Theremin Whistle preset in the Wavetable synth. Additional sound effect tracks were added. Effects plugins included Valhalla Vintage Verb, Aberrant DSP Sketch Cassette and Digitalis. Here's a link to a video version on YouTube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9m87Dstnf0Q

halF haunteD [disquiet0617]

The Nightmare Machine is a series of spooky lo-fi short tracks sounding like they are playing from the rusted circuits of a lost horror game cartridge left inserted in a blown up vintage game console. The dread, melancholy and creepiness they bring with them reek of the decay and fear that many times can dominate our most profound nightmares, testimony of inner torments that a lot of people have to conceal everyday and then manifest through their agitated sleep.
 
Originally aimed to be the soundtrack of an 8-bit game project that still has to come to light because of several unconveniences, I thought it would be a pity to abandon them and deny listeners some healthy shivers; thus, I decided to refurbish them as a small concept EP, with new mixing and mastering.

So... enjoy this gloomy trip, fellow listeners!

Yours Truly, 
Amorphic Mark

In Too Deep

Celestial Trax returns with new work of tonal-textural explorations.
On 'Lifecodes' the producer born Joni Judén weaves together a dense quilt of sound, shimmering and surging as it unfolds in free-time. Judén invites the listener down a luminous, harmonically adventurous path, where sound takes creaturely dimensions. The songs blossom and wilt, at times floating in states of ambivalence, at others washing over the listener like waves, bathing them in heavy light.

'Lifecodes' was created in the small village of Pynnölä, Joutsa in central Finland, where Celestial Trax has been living and working since 2020.
