cool sounds :slight_smile:

Here’s mine: https://soundcloud.com/plusch/slapdash-disquiet0346

I used the drum kit created by Mtn​View​Mark-Bits, heard at the beginning of Mtnviewmark-bits – 0345-br-beat-disquiet0345. Ran out of time, so only managed to cobble this piece together.

This is another one I’d like to refine more but I ran out of time.

For my percussion track I used mzero’s bedroom drum kit in Mtnviewmark-bits – 0345-br-beat-disquiet0345, arranged in a frenetic fashion.

For the music, I started with a chord sequence using classical instruments inspired by Philip Glass. Late in the game I changed out the classical instruments for synthesizers, giving it an entirely different feel, although you can still hear the Glass influence.

With plenty of synthesizers and reverb, I think this energetic track would sound right at home in the 1980’s.

I used Plusch’s kit from last week, and the incredible “Wandoo Table” sample from Bassling (heard in two very different registers). Also heard are Ableton’s lovely Analog and Wave synths.

The process I went through is very different than I usually use: After selecting the sounds… I just sat down and played it, part by part. One or two notes got altered on re-listening… fiddled with some reverb and some compression… and done!

Those two kits work really well together! Great!

What are you using to place those sounds in space? I’m listening on headphones and the placement and movement is exquisite.

similar sorta drumdrone to last week

i liked @sarmism 's sounds and also our usernames are similar!

had the first 4 hits running thru iris 2 with arpeggiator, random, vinyl, reverb, ozone imager - various automation espec the reverb getting wetter
decimated a duplicate of that track in audacity (reducing bit depth) and had the reverb of that fading in

It’s basically a mix of panning, and then using clean, short reverbs that I can very the reflection time on without you “hearing it” when I modulate them. Then I use variations of them with slightly different times to place the sound forward and back, and then modulate that to get it to move around. I’ve been working on them for a long time and tweaking.

Sorta prehistoric. Like dinosaurs at a distance. :drum:

Sounds good. I like the drum programming, very contemporary-sounding hats.

I know beats aren’t for everyone every week, but damn this was a fun prompt! Thanks again Matt Nish-Lapidus, Jason Wehmhoener, all the participants and as always, Marc, for bringing all this together!

I have been leaching the Disquiet Junto mailing for a long time now and just yesterday set my mind to jumping in for once, only to discover that deadlines are actually on Mondays. Oh well, here goes my track anyway!

I used samples by https://soundcloud.com/mtnviewmark-bits @mzero, like @Ethan_Hein, loaded them into my Analog Rytm, constructed a drum kit and jammed away. It’s a little heavier than I originally intended! Hope you enjoy it.

Cheers!

Thanks for the prompt.

My track with @mzero’s drums for the last Junto can be downloaded here.

Could you set this as downloadable? I’d like to work with it for this week’s challenge.

Fabulous! Love how you’ve taken the sounds in a completely new direction.

It should be, both from Soundcloud and BandCamp - probably too late now :frowning:
