some dark ambient drone created in response to disquiet0720: I chose 2 recent unfinished tracks, that I had considered layering prior to the disquiet prompt… so I did just that, I set up 2 channels one for each track, one slowed by 10% to roughly match the longer track, I simply adjusted levels for each and had a shared bus channel with additional eq and reverb(s), this in turn joins the originals in the master, which also has some lofi fx and more(!) reverb… recorded the output. Thanks for listening. //// More on the 720th weekly Disquiet Junto project, One from Two — The Assignment: Combine a pair of your recent tracks — at https://disquiet.com/0720/.

Created in response to disquiet0680: “Disquiet Junto Project 0680: Reverse Resolution The Assignment: Finish something (musical) you started last year. This project has just one step: finish something you started last year, likely a piece of music you left unfinished.” I chose 2 tracks I had left to complete from January 2024… I noticed the tempo of each of the tracks were 24bpm & 48bpm, also one track was exactly half the length of the other… I decided to layer these : one track slowed to half speed to match the other longer track…with additional EQing and a little reverb, some sprinkles of dust and noise… A note attached to one of the tracks: “Imagine if a piece of flotsam could tell you the tale of its journey…” Thanks for listening!

Whilst considered superior apartments in Sector 7, (they are generously sized for any spaceship in the Megafleet ), they have the one drawback of being next to the cargo deck... nowehere is really silent anymore, not even in space. All inside AUM (kymatica) on iPhone. Base is a Mixtikl patch generating very low frequency mechanical noise, some harmonics accentuated mixing original signal with 2 other busses one with hpf one with lpf- each of these 3 tracks has a different reverb size. Next is a field recording of a very noisy sloped travelator pitched down to 1/8th speed, with a very large reverb, these generate the vast booming sounds and strange occasional squeals and more mechanical hum. Next another field recording - this one of the inside of a refrigerator, pitched up a little, this is fed into adverb/AUFX space, these are the hissing gurgling noises, a smaller reverb space is used here. One final field recording, this one of an evacuation alarm test at a local shopping mall.... happens at 08.45 every Wednesday. I am happy when I get to catch this as I make a shortcut through the mall as it opens... sometimes recording as I go! Next up are two synths (Ripplemaker) auto generating two different speed buzzer/alarm sounds. The last field recording and two other synths have volume modulated by LFOs running at very low frequencies using a sample and hold waveform, to generate some sense of movement and space. 55 minute version link:https://freesound.org/people/ID_23/sounds/468944/ Disquiet Junto Project 0383: Interstellar Ambience The Assignment: Record the sound of an apartment on a large interstellar ship.

A semi generative limbo moment using sequencers and LFOs to modulate notes and parameters/effects etc. Disquiet Junto Project 0335: Alone Time Record conference-call hold music — a private limbo of your own making. Major thanks to Matt Pinto for having proposed this Junto project prompt. Step 1: Hold music is a ubiquitous fact of modern life. Ask yourself what hold music you’d like to hear while waiting for someone to pick up the other end of the line, or while waiting for a conference call to begin. Step 2: Record a short piece of hold music that satisfies the scenario you pondered in Step 1. Your finished track should be suitable for looping, since you never know how long you’re going to be on hold. Six More Important Steps When Your Track Is Done: Step 1: Include “disquiet0335” (no spaces or quotation marks) in the name of your track. Step 2: If your audio-hosting platform allows for tags, be sure to also include the project tag “disquiet0335” (no spaces or quotation marks). If you’re posting on SoundCloud in particular, this is essential to subsequent location of tracks for the creation a project playlist. Step 3: Upload your track. It is helpful but not essential that you use SoundCloud to host your track. Step 4: Please consider posting your track in the following discussion thread at llllllll.co: https://llllllll.co/t/disquiet-junto-project-0335-alone-time/ Step 5: Annotate your track with a brief explanation of your approach and process. Step 6: Then listen to and comment on tracks uploaded by your fellow Disquiet Junto participants. Other Details: Deadline: This project’s deadline is 11:59pm (that is, just before midnight) wherever you are on Monday, June 4, 2018. This project was posted in the late afternoon, California time, on Thursday, May 31, 2018. Length: The length of your track is up to you. It should be suitable for looping, since you never know how long you’re going to be on hold. Title/Tag: When posting your track, please include “disquiet0335” in the title of the track, and where applicable (on SoundCloud, for example) as a tag. Upload: When participating in this project, post one finished track with the project tag, and be sure to include a description of your process in planning, composing, and recording it. This description is an essential element of the communicative process inherent in the Disquiet Junto. Photos, video, and lists of equipment are always appreciated. Download: It is preferable that your track is set as downloadable, and that it allows for attributed remixing (i.e., a Creative Commons license permitting non-commercial sharing with attribution).

Welcome to a new year. This week’s project is as follows. It’s the same project we’ve begun each year with since the very first Junto project, back in January 2012. The project is, per tradition, just this one sentence: Please record the sound of an ice cube rattling in a glass, and make something of it. Background: Longtime participants in, and observers of, the Disquiet Junto series will recognize this single-sentence assignment — “Please record the sound of an ice cube rattling in a glass, and make something of it” — as the very first Disquiet Junto project, the same one that launched the series back on the first Thursday of January 2012. Revisiting it at the start of each year since has provided a fitting way to begin the new year. At the start of the seventh (!) year of the Disquiet Junto, it is a tradition. A weekly project series can come to overemphasize novelty, and it’s helpful to revisit old projects as much as it is to engage with new ones. Also, by its very nature, the Disquiet Junto suggests itself as a fast pace: a four-day production window, a regular if not weekly habit. It can be beneficial to step back and see things from a longer perspective. Five More Important Steps When Your Track Is Done: Step 1: If your hosting platform allows for tags, be sure to include the project tag “disquiet0314” (no spaces) in the name of your track. If you’re posting on SoundCloud in particular, this is essential to my locating the tracks and creating a playlist of them. Step 2: Upload your track. It is helpful but not essential that you use SoundCloud to host your track. Step 3: Please consider posting your track in the following discussion thread at llllllll.co: https://llllllll.co/t/disquiet-junto-project-0314-cold-start/ Step 4: Annotate your track with a brief explanation of your approach and process. Step 5: Then listen to and comment on tracks uploaded by your fellow Disquiet Junto participants. Deadline: This project’s deadline is 11:59pm (that is, just before midnight) wherever you are on Monday, January 8, 2018. This project was posted in the morning, California time, on Thursday, January 4, 2018. Length: The length is up to you. Title/Tag: When posting your track, please include “disquiet0314” in the title of the track, and where applicable (on SoundCloud, for example) as a tag.

My entry for this challenge; created on iOS devices, using: FieldScaper Soundscaper Mitosynth Dedalus Moebius lab PeakEQ Space Push Reverb Altispace Aum Audiobus ...Amongst others! Disquiet Junto Project 0259: Signals Lost Summon up a horror story in sound. Step 1: There is a cool recent short fiction collection of horror stories, all with sound as their subject. The book is titled Lost Signals, and it contains 24 pieces of fiction, one of them, “The Night Wire” by H.F. Arnold, dating as far back as 1926. Step 2: We’re going to take a short segment of one of the stories and try to represent it in sound. The story is “Transmission” by T.E. Grau. It’s about a mysterious radio station. You can either use the following segment, or read the book and find a different section of roughly similar length: “Max was pondering the important issue of how petrogylphs differed from hieroglyphs when the radio halted its roll at the very far end of the electronic dial. After a brief silence, the weak signal transmitted indistinct sounds, like whispers, intermingled with an odd chanting that faded in and out like a spectral dirge. Intrigued by this strange combination, and hoping for a broadcast of a lonely Indian powwow, Max turned up the volume, but the higher it went, the softer the voice and chant became, going silent. There was no apparent signal, but the radio scan was still stopped, locked in on something.” Step 3: Render the text in Step 2 (or that you choose yourself from the book Lost Signals). However, do not read the text. Just let the text inform the sounds. Five More Important Steps When Your Track Is Done: Step 1: Per the instructions below, be sure to include the project tag “disquiet0259″ (no spaces) in the name of your track. If you’re posting on SoundCloud in particular, this is essential to my locating the tracks and creating a playlist of them. Step 2: Upload your track. It is helpful but not essential that you use SoundCloud to host your track. Step 3: In the following discussion thread at llllllll.co please consider posting your track. http://llllllll.co/t/disquiet-junto-project-0259-lost-signals/5726 Step 4: Annotate your track with a brief explanation of your approach and process. Step 5: Then listen to and comment on tracks uploaded by your fellow Disquiet Junto participants. Deadline: This project was posted in the early evening, California time, on Thursday, December 15, 2016, with a deadline of 11:59pm wherever you are on Monday, December 19, 2016. Length: The length is up to you, but three to four minutes sounds about right. Title/Tag: When posting your track, please include “disquiet0259” in the title of the track, and where applicable (on SoundCloud, for example) as a tag. Upload: When participating in this project, post one finished track with the project tag, and be sure to include a description of your process in planning, composing, and recording it.
