That synth sounds great! Enjoying the rhythm too.

I definitely wanted to make time to contribute to the 400th Junto! :smiley:

I only used Malka’s voice in creating all the sounds you hear. To create my track, I chopped up the audio, reversed it, ran it through a granulator, took some parts and laid them out on a synth for the rhythmic parts and then put them all back together. I feel like everything ended up sounding kind of watery, and I enjoyed that interplay with the text.

Voice to MIDI was a good idea. Enjoyed the jazzy result.

Very good processing of the voice

My first contribution in ~7 years. Last one was #13.

I picked track #7 before listening to the story, for no reason.

I sampled the word “shape” in Ableton Live, filtered and modulated it to create a “background noise”.

:v:

Two contributions in a row… I really wanted to do this one, because of the round number and because it’s science-fictional. Nothing earthshaking but I had fun!

Great stuff this week everyone, I’m working my way through the playlist and very much enjoying it, the repetition in the playlist but with random embellishments and order of text is very engaging. I needed something to cheer me up and this has done wonderfully. Thank you

I have produced a short track for this weeks junto - I though i was being disciplined but i now realised it should have been shorter as it exceeds the length of the voice track part 2.

thanks for listening…

I ended up using part 4, because of the feeling I got when I heard it. I just wanted to create a mish mash og music and sfx, but I didn’t want to be too literal, even though there is a bit about money and power. I fixed the Vox so it kind of existed in an undefined place, but maybe in a small space buried under tonnes of old dirt and rock relaying a story. I processed bits of the lines in multiple instances of Form and Valhalla Room getting a good dronepad going, then I created some rhythms in Battery and sprinkled everything with distortion and saturation.

After listening to all the tracks I almost feel like I could recite the story verbatim. But not in the correct order!

Music and voice works really well together.

Hi,

Here is my submission for this 400th disquiet challenge. Couldn’t miss that one.

Voice was copied/pitched several times
a JX8P synth sound
a reverb

Enjoy,

Thanks to Mark for keeping this thing up for 400 weeks !

I used a granular Max patch and Logic. This is 100% voice, as I love to use.

Congrats on #400 Marc!

All sounds here are Malka’s voice, processed and the piece composed in Borderlands Granular (save the one track of her original reading). I then multitracked individual parts to Sonar and mixed in there.

Happy 400th! Sorry I couldn’t get time to do this one - been away from home a lot over teh weekends, and simply not had time when I did get home. Hoping to get back to music making soon!
