came back for a second listen because I really like your composition. I think you captured the predicament of nurturing children beneath uncaring stars very well. excellent work.

Disquiet Junto Project 0346: Drum Machinations
The Assignment: Make a beat with new drum machine sounds provided by other Junto musicians.

Drum sounds courtesy of @vgmrmojo 's track: https://soundcloud.com/vgmrmojo/give-the-samples-some-disquiet0345

I had this idea recorded on the fly on my iphone from a while back and decided to use it for this assignment.  It's 3 drum sounds that always play in the same order, which makes it bleed into the next measure creating 3 variations that take 3 measures to recycle.  the guitar chords take 4 measures, so it takes 12 measures for them to catch up to each other. I believe there was another Junto assignment years ago that played on this idea.  vgmrmojo's weird drum sounds I thought were perfect for the idea because they sort of go along with the sense of randomness the rhythm conveys.

catsup (disquiet 0346)

One day I decided to take my dog, skateboard, thyme and tocante and tried to figure out what am I doing with my life.

Is it over now?

Thanks so much for everybody who took the effort to provide these samples - it's been fun working with them! My approach was to select some of my favourite samples, and prepare by creating a looped version of each. I then transferred them to modules with sample playback capability on my modular system. The looped samples create a slowly moving bed with the non-looped ones triggered at different pitches with a short envelope.

https://disquiet.com/0419/ 2

This all came about as a result of something Alan Bland mentioned on the Junto Slack. He pointed out that my having misspelled Disquiet as “Disquier” in the December 19, 2019, project title made him think of “Dischoir,” a possible Junto project. Thanks to Alan and to Jason Wehmhoener for helping me think this project through, and to everyone (over 50 contributors) who sent in samples.

Submission to Disquiet Junto Project 0420: Luna Tick
The assignment: Make music that proceeds according to the phases of the moon, in celebration of Lunar New Year.
For more information, go to https://disquiet.com/0420/

Girls and boys, come out to play.
The moon is shining bright as day.
Leave your supper and leave your sleep
and come with your playfellows into the street.
Come with a whoop and come with a call,
Come with a good will or come not at all.
Up the ladder and down the wall,
a half-penny roll will serve us all.
You find milk and I'll find flour
and we'll have a pudding in half an hour.
-- Mother Goose

I imagined a night sky filled with stars, beginning at the New Moon. For the stars, I wanted something random, pitiless & uncaring, so I used Kevin Hopper's Reaktor ensemble Wool to play AAS Strum via the Widisoft Audio to MIDI plugin.

As a resident of the northern hemisphere, I experience the waxing crescent starting at the right side of the moon disk. Therefore, the moon theme pans from right to left, building from silence to full volume when it reaches the center of the stereo field (Full Moon), then decreasing back to silence at the end of the piece.

The moon theme is a setting of the nursery rhyme "Girls and Boys Come Out to Play" from "The Baby's Opera" by Walter Crane (1877). It is played by a sampled piano with a drum track added, then fed through Audiority GrainSpace so as to become luminous and unrecognizable.

Moon As Bright As Day [disquiet0420]

These samples were captured on my Zoom recorder today, using only the things around my house. I tried to incorporate sounds from the things that have been a part of my daily life in isolation; planting seeds, watering plants, closing doors, sanitizing things, making medicinal tinctures from Astragalus and Chaga, cutting my own hair and sewing masks. These drum samples are all sounds from activities I've just mentioned. Some of them have been pitched up or down inside of ableton.
