In the car, I talk about Chuck Bird while playing a live remix of my track “Chuck Bird” in the background using the iOS program Samplr. Created right on the eve of Chuck’s would-be 60th birthday and almost 11 years after his death.

Heh, so good. You really set the scene.

bassling · 2017-11-11T01:59:24.419Z

Good rhythms in this piece.

bassling · 2017-11-11T02:04:59.432Z

Nice. I like how that high pitch gives a sense of urgency and then it eases at the end with that coda.

bassling · 2017-11-11T02:07:37.231Z

There’s a lot happening in that loop. It’s crunchy and smooth, upbeat and downtempo.

You sound like you’re in a reflective mood. Thanks for sharing.

The best travel companion for me it’s an Ukulele. And my laptop and my AT stereo microphone.
This track features all that road companion set, an Uke stereo take and a country side field recording made with that stereo mic

@DeDe Wonderful! Very soothing. The birds singing and ukulele make a nice duo.

nuun · 2017-11-11T11:11:09.245Z

Well done, thanks for sharing. You have a nice voice for story telling.

nuun · 2017-11-11T11:17:06.416Z

Nice track! I hear the spontaneity and fun of movement in it

had a molar out a couple of days ago.
quite an effort getting anywhere
this is my journey upstairs!

i recorded the walk on my phone .
i had my fave phone synth running (kosmische) - slow tooth-drilly patch
must admit i did a little in post. when i record on my phone anything emanating from the phone only gets recorded in the left channel. so in audacity i stereofied it with haas. and i may have done a tiny bit of hiss reduction…

The timing of a Junto project about making music on the road could not have been better for me, since I’m in Berlin for Ableton Loop this week. After all this listening to people talk about creative process I was super fired up to do some music making. And since I’m writing a paper about Duke Ellington’s “Black and Tan Fantasy” at the moment, the obvious solution was to remix it.

I took loops of the trumpet and trombone solos from two different recordings of the tune and laid them out over one of my favorite rhythmic beds, “Blind Man Can See It” by James Brown. Some of the Ellington loops are more or less intact, some are timestretched, some are ring modulated, and some are insanely vocoded with pitch tracking and beat repeat. The James Brown loops are pitched up a minor third to fit the key of the Ellington tune.

I started work on the track at Newark Airport, pushed it forward a bit in my hotel in Berlin, and completed it in the Loop conference green room, otherwise known as the control room for one of the gigantic recording studios. I was listening to a talk on overcoming creative obstacles by Kaki King, Machinedrum and Akiyomi, which was so energizing that I had to run up here and make some music myself. As I write this description, those three artists are doing their Q&A on the other side of the glass. It’s pretty inspiring.

Here’s mine. As mentioned above, I purchased a digital recorder for this (that I’ve needed for some time), the Tascam DR-40, which seems to do the trick for my needs at present.

I was on my way to London with my daughter via public transport; this is an edited field recording of that journey, with some post processing added via convolution reverb and granular tools (this is cheating slightly). Modes of transport featured are bus, tube, and docklands light railway. Oh, and a serendipitous encounter with some illegal buskers, who were singing ‘Hit the Road Jack’!

Apologies for lack of brevity, but the length was needed to capture the different ambiences of waiting/travelling per mode of transport.

nuun · 2017-11-11T21:31:02.614Z

Very well done! Listening really takes you on a trip. I’m curious to know what granular tools you used, it sounds so good.

Autogeneric · 2017-11-11T22:41:50.458Z

Thanks, that’s really kind.

Most of the additional harmonics I think are from the convolution reverb - Logic’s Space Designer.

The granular stuff is from the Michael Norris plug-in suite, stuck in as send effect, I think with a low cut on the eq. They’re free, and pretty experimental.

a pleasant and relaxing afternoon drive listening to the soundtrack of ‘The Wicker Man’

my chosen instruments were: my tablet for recording, my laptop for processing/editing, and my phone hooked into the car’s sound system playing the soundtrack.

I took the train this morning, with in my backpack my field recorder (zoom h4n) and kalimba. I recorded some kalimba playing in the train and on the platform waiting to get the train back home. On my phone i played parts of the first episode of the podcast ‘Sound Matters’ and recorded that. I edited it slightly when i got home. Some reverb towards the end of the piece. The last sound you hear is a me checking out of the Dutch railway system (a short bleeb).
