I’ve reworked the rather nice Insomniac Work by vgmrmojo, which can be found here: Vgmrmojo – Disquiet0350

I sampled selected elements from the original track into the 4ms STS. This was then routed through the Disting mk1 delay into Mutable Instruments’ Clouds, heavily modulated and triggered throughout by ALM Pamela’s New Workout and Malekko Voltage Block. I recorded the output into the Synthstrom Deluge before stretching it and downpitching a few semitones. A little bit more delay, reverb and saturation were added at this stage.

It makes for a rather intense, blurry texture. Sort of womblike in a strange way. Not sure whether it helps one sleep however!

trying to step deeper into nighttime atmosphere, i chose the track “september13th” by @cboulter and dived into heavy time stretching, where i found more details, more special moments and more space.
i sliced several times the harmony to various additional sound layers and also added from time to time the original track as a kind of reminiscent memory.
i guess, the journey could go on for a while, but for now, this is my approach to disqiuet0351. enjoy listening.

The contributions to disquiet0350 gave so many options to start with, it took me hours to even listen to them. I decided to start with “Dorchester Pink” https://soundcloud.com/analoc/dorchester-pink-disquiet0350 from analoc https://soundcloud.com/analoc as the base sound, which had an appropriate lenght for an acoustic sleeping pill. If you don’t sleep after 20+ minutes you should change to chemical help …

In “Wet Peachblossom Lullaby”, “Dorchester Pink” is layered three tracks with different filters, mainly the Cockos Reaper’ RealFIR, to split up the three in different frequency areas and to smooth out the edges as requested.

As a repetitive rhythmic component I would have liked to include the complete “Eighth Inch Lullaby” https://soundcloud.com/untilledsound/disquiet0350-eighth-inch-lullaby from UntilledSound https://soundcloud.com/untilledsound, but it did’nt work out for me in combination (to much going on), so I just took the first 2:40 min and repeated this.

Because I originally wanted to do “something with water”, I added some water sounds recordings. But not the originals, instead the tracks from my own “Delicate Hallucination” submission to disquiet0350. So their use tin time depends on music which cannot be heard in this remix, which gave it a random-like quality while having a invisible link to my own track.

Applied effects on all audio material include HY-Phaser, Rubbadub, OrilRiver, Spaceship delay, Voxengo Tube Amp, KR Delay. Some of the main work here really is done by ReaFIR https://www.reaper.fm/reaplugs/, which I tend to like more and more for its ability to silent unwanted und amplify wanted frequencies and to hear things out of audio materials, that normally cannot be heard.

Thanks to @anatol & @UntilledSound !!!

I chose this excellent track by Larry Frazier:

I processed this multiple times in PaulStretch, with different settings, and then processed each of those versions in SoundForge. I then layered them all up in Reaper, added some panning and EQ, and a few more effects, then rendered the track, and processed it again in SoundForge for another little layer of effects.
Here’s my track:

Love what you did - it’s like being in a concert hall within a dream.

I time stretched Ambient Rushton’s “DohmRushton” to 7 minutes, then incorporated some E352 and a sample from the TG One.

Love everything about this one. The Eno/Lanois vibe, the little hints of Badalamenti, the repetition, the space. Lovely.

This is a brilliant collaboration! I think it would sound great with some Wayne Coyne style vocals, like one of the sweeter Flaming Lips songs?

Thank you Ian, a fine image you paint there, chasing the melody but sometimes leading the melody was the intention… Thanks!

i took a slightly uneven loop [0m48.761s - 1m06.580] from @amelie’s comparatively up-tempo evocation of the joys of over-the-counter medication [User-215090509 – Disquiet0350-high-on-dafalgan] & tried to both honour it’s melody and propulsion whilst paying attention to the project’s injunction to smooth &, uh, de-drama it…

https://soundcloud.com/jmmy-kpple/amelie-high-on-dafalgan-jimmy-kipples-miscellaneous-analgesics-mixdisquiet0351

So yeah, i went straight for the long reverb chains, convoluted granular delay and, y’know typical methods of creating a general haze without quite lunging for the obvious &, to me, ever-appealing slow it down & drag it out options… i also added some rain, 'cause that’s effectively what i do on any given track; be generous & it’s a trademark; be critical & call it a stylistic tic. ; )

Should someone choose to turn up the volume and focus on it? Well, hmm, that’s the question i guess… Hopefully i’ve kept some trace of original’s momentum, even if i’ve sort of made one long implication out of Amélie’s track’s spritely definition…

E D I T

also, on reflection, it’s detuned radio & party next-door sound palette might actually run counter to this project’s quiet music for very late at night for very fragile psyches mission statement. #allapologies

Here’s mine.

I choose Analoc’s epic and fantastic ‘Dorcester Pink’, choose a small loop of that which I processed in various ways using my eurorack system: some granular/tapey stuff using the Make Noise Morphagene and some resonant stuff using the 4MS SMR. And blended that with the sound of rain recorded from inside my house. And used a shed-load of reverb.

I’m fairly certain I have failed in making this more sedate. I’d also suggest that to have any use in helping insomnia, it would need to be played particularly quietly.

Aw thank ye! Maybe @amelie can cook up a vocal? My singing skills have yet to surface lol

A little over halfway through this weeks playlist and a few observations:
-An amazing amount of pieces over these two weeks, that will require some sort of randomizing function for me to enjoy each before drifting off and missing what follows.
-Fortuitous timing as one of my favorite apps ‘Ambiance’ will disappear with my grudging upgrade to iOS 12. The key feature of this ambient noise player was the ability to layer and mix multiple sources from a vast collection of natural, spiritual and mechanical user created soundscapes.
-I am fortunate to have found such an open and talented group of collaborators who let you muck about with their works for your own satisfaction!
Thanks to everyone for the generosity :smiley:

NON-SUBMISSION Hey All, I did something with samarobryn’s Grove and Swoop (Bounds Parameters) by Marc aka disquiet.

Remix of the song “Untitled” by Lazzarello. I put played some guitar notes over it, ending with a note of frustration when nothing works. When I finished recording, I realized that I recorded the sound of the room, not the exit from the desk, so I pushed the whole thing through the reverb and recorded what I had. This is just what happens.

Mine either - and I’m also no lyricist, otherwise I might have done something!

Wow… thanks for choosing my track. I really like the result - great. Just curious: Did you splice longer pieces in the Morphagene or did you go towards micro-sounds?

Thanks for listening!

  • I took a 30 second or so slice of your track
  • Set a medium size ‘gene’
  • Set the Morphagene to it’s smoother gene setting
  • Set Morph to 3/4 intensity (grain overlap)
  • Modulated the slide control with a really slow LFO - so the gene start point was moving around the loop.

So effectively, I was able to move much more slowly across a smaller loop. I also think I played it backwards, and had some subtle random modulation on the gene size.

I then multed this into the resonant filter to add some new harmonics alongside.

So to actually answer your question, probably more towards the larger slices - the gene size wasn’t really tiny or in the microsound space.
