Great, a one step task, on vacation
spend a few days at the baltic sea
i played my guitar through Steinberg UR 22mkII
recorded in aum
added some granular effects
there were actually only two tempi
one slower, one faster

Erik Satie owned between seven and twelve velvet corduroy suits hanging in his wardrobe, each the size of a large bathrobe. With all apologies to Mel Tormé, Satie was the original “velvet fog.”

Satie was the personification of eccentricity. He reportedly ate only white foods, slept in a circular bed with one eye open, collected hundreds of umbrellas, and walked the streets carrying a hammer for protection. One cannot confirm whether these were genuine behavioral quirks, or simply the manifestation of a brilliant mind with a wicked sense of humor. 

For this piece, Suss Müsik took inspiration from two Satie compositions: the minimal piano repetition of his most recognizable works (cue Trois Gymnopédies and its sibling Gnossiennes) and Musique d’Ameublement as performed by string quartet. The piece is an ode to two rocking chairs on the front porch of Suss Müsik headquarters, accompanied by heavily treated percussion sampled by hitting the metal chairs with a stick.

The full title is Musique Pour Deux Chaises Berçantes Accompagnée De La Colère Des Écureuils Déplacés. Feel free to have that phrase translated via your online tool of choice.

This track was inspired by this great prompt and two outdoor lounge chairs covered with lichen - I can't seem to bring myself to get rid of them, they really have developed a beautiful covering that continues to grow - apparently, species of all types are entitled to lounge in the sun.  A series of instruments make up this drone piece, some software from Spitfire and guitar pedalled through Hors d'Oeuvre?, Meet Maude and Mercury7.

Taking Satie's use of short repetitions, I went outdoors, in the London rain, to the bar close by where I live. There is an indoors dressing table with plants growing out of it on the street (pictured) and I recorded 20 second clips tapping and wiping the rain off the surfaces. I then cut these into shorter clips and repeated to make a rhythm, and took a tiny clip and stretched it out long so as the overtones are foregrounded.

And this is my response to this wee's Disquiet Junto prompt. More on this 566th weekly Disquiet Junto project – Outdoor Furniture Music (The Assignment: Imagine the ur-ambient Erik Satie musique d’ameublement concept en plein air) – at: https://disquiet.com/0566/

All here, in reality, are works in progress and are therefore apt to change at any time. All those except XIII Sisters and RAW which, as many of you may have done, I literally gave away in return for their placement in a library. Something I won't be doing again any time soon. If you have a use for something you hear here please just ask.

ChatGTP said of AI Music...
'Creative AI tools can be seen as sophisticated plagiarism software, as they do not produce genuinely original content but rather emulate and modify existing works by artists subtly enough to circumvent copyright laws'

Sometimes it takes a dispassionate, independent view to actually see the truth of it ...

There are links to XiiixxiQ below. Your mileage may vary as to whether it decides to work on your system or not. It only runs on a Mac because I really don't have time to do all the necessary work to make it compatible with anything other than my 2015 MacBook Pro :-(. It is still being developed (for my own use) and improved, and I may yet get round to doing another release if I can find the time to tidy it all up.
