That’s so cool. Million years ago. Glad to have you back.

As @Jet said, it’s just part of the plan.

The top-secret nature of this is driving me crazy. I’m so tempted to work ahead. I guess I’ll simply have to be patient.

Sorry. It’s not intended to feel top secret or anything like that. I’d hoped the original instructions were clear enough. It’s essentially the same project we’ve done two or three times previously. This coming Thursday, people will add a second track, right-panned. The third week, someone will add a third in the center. I may adjust the instructions a little, but that’s essentially the plan. I’m always alert to how these things are rolling along, and I sometimes adjust plans based on circumstances. If there’s energy after the third round, we may make it a quartet, or invoke a remix phase.

For this week’s project I used recordings contrasting where I am at now with where I was at this time last year.
Samples from the now are of audio from transcription jobs I have been completing online. The audio was manipulated by slowing down and speeding up the material within the transcription service’s browser window.
This time last year I was working in Hong Kong (and would be doing so right now, if it wasn’t for you know…) where I made recordings by close-miking the glass of my hotel room’s shower door. Also included are recordings from a portable recorder inside a polystyrene fish box that I checked in as baggage on my way home.
I hope you all are well, you’ll excuse me while I check the news and see what the UK government just announced.

A buzzy drone for a buzzy time.

Stay safe everyone.

Very simple sine waves of 228.8 Hz - a wavelength of 1,5 meters - and the 1st and 2nd harmonics of this. These one and a half meters are not an arbitrary number but the new gold standard for the ‘social distance’ we all have to keep from each other since the outbreak of the pandemic.

The sine wave generators are very simple things built in M4L - with modulation of the volume by tempo synced LFOs while this tempo shifts from 22.8 to 228 BPM. Some delay and echo but no other processing in an attempt to do it purely with these sines.

Hi, Charlie. I think it might be valuable to set up a Git repository for any code any of us write for Disquiet Junto. What do you think of this idea? We’d have to settle on a license, of course. Also, it would make sense to create this repository under some sort of group or team account. I know that GitHub has a Teams feature and I know that BitBucket has one also.

Hi there,

I made a short piece with 2 loops (guitar + eventide timefactor + clouds + eventide space), recorded in Ableton.
The inspiration for this track is the short walk to the botanical garden I’m doing every day as part of my new morning routine.

Can’t seem to get the SoundCloud player to embed for some reason. For now just provided a normal link.

While making this patch on stream, a buddy looked at my modular and said it looked I was patching the Millennium Falcon’s Hyperdrive. Hence the name.

Made in eurorack, relying mostly on the Make Noise Tempi and the Noise Engineering Basimilas Iteritas Alter.

Hey All, I don’t know if anybody ran into this problem but real easy solution if you are using samples of the original track but needed to switch your part to the right channel. I did not know this so I thought someone else might like to know. He gets to it pretty straight away.

Peace, Hugh

I named this piece KAJ after the Armenian spirit of the storm. For this part, I used a Godin multiac nylon string guitar played through a Strymon Magneto using an AA.1 module in a eurorack set up. A simple set up that could be used live once I find out who my new band mates are ; ). KAJ represents the duality of something powerful that could be both beautiful and terrible.

hey I love this idea! what do you think about licensing?

I’m not an expert on licensing, I admit. I was just reading “Choose an open source license”. Maybe GNU GPLv3. Or the MIT License. I really don’t have a strong opinion on that. I’ve always chosen something that doesn’t allow commercial use unless you give permission just on the off-chance that R.E.M. decides to use it.

Wow. I’ve been sick with the coronavirus for the past 10 days or so. It was a “mild” case but that doesn’t mean the symptoms were actually mild. I’m finally recovering, and today is the first day I’ve felt well enough to play music, just in time to submit a track for the Junto! This is an electronic blues piece recorded on a modular synth. The noise-generating modules used are Basimilus Iteritas Alter and E352 Cloud Terrarium.

Hope all of you are healthy and isolating!

I’m so sorry to hear you’ve been hit by this. It really brings it home, I have to say. I hope you didn’t stress your system to get this done in time. Get some rest, and keep us informed as you recuperate.
