Disquiet Junto Project 0433: Kit Bits

duckpow · 2020-04-19T14:18:31.218Z

This was the perfect excuse to finally sample my cheap Erhu:

I experimented with different placements of the mic and then pressed record while tapping away at the snake skin. After a minute of fiddling I started chopping the file into individual hits and saving the ones I liked the best. Applied some post processing (EQ & light saturation).
The file can be downloaded directly from SC and is prepped for Octatrack: One file containing samples at regular intervals. Individual samples is obtained by setting bpm to 120 and splitting every quarter note.

Hi all

I’m playing around with my Linnaeus Eurorack modular filter, and I ran a lot of percussive field recordings through it for some time, and “harvested” some interesting results and did a little editing to create 31 samples. They are available here (but is not a Linn Drum even so… ):

A small demo, with the samples used in a 12 bar loop is here:

I hope someone might find them usefull…

I’m currently away from my hard drive where most of my samples call home, so I took the opportunity to record a selection of containers that were about to be recycled. All 31 samples can be downloaded as a zip file here:

Hi! I finally found some time to make an assignment. Made 7 really basic drum sounds in Drambo: kick, snare, closed hat, woosh, trrr, boing and some distorted voice sample Main focus was to keep things simple and make them play together well.

A few sounds that I edited out of a recent theater project to create a kind of percussion kit. Just a few cast offs: https://soundcloud.com/ktspringer/sets/cast-offs-disquiet0433

My original kit was comprised of:
Guitar
Ebow
Solonoid controlled by Koma Electronic Field Kit

My aesthetic predilections are something akin to a dog glomming on to a specific stick or old tennis ball on the one hand, and a small child collecting cheap toys and tchotchkes in a box or jar on the other; which is to say i took some delight in assembling these eighteen tiny fragmentary sounds.

They’re undoubtedly a chaotic, inconsistent bunch and not really a proper kit but they are all short, mono & percussive enough to be of some use, i hope. Ideally, you 'd be ale to synthesise the sort of tinny rattles that characterise those guys who busk with kits assembled from various pieces of trash & clutter… The sounds are nearly all tiny slips of field recording that caught my ear over the weekend as i skipped through the past ~8 months of recordings on my SD cards, the exception being dumm which is made out of a sine wave; i really wanted a ’ b o o m ', y’know?

Each of the samples on Soundcloud are downloadable; a zip of all of 'em is available here.

These old hose fittings have been sitting in my music box for years. This Junto project was a great opportunity to do make percussion samples with them.

Drum samples, from the Volca Sample factory sounds, played through a tin biscuit box, in the shape of France, converted into a reverb/resonator. Recorded with the biscuit tin lid on and off through a ladder filter with a touch of resonance.

Edit: I’m so kicking myself (pun intended) that I didn’t call this “bits kit tin”.

recorded a noisy bird on top of a hill
these are the isolated clicks and noises that were picked up
i’ve kept in the bird tweeting too.

very little processing. noise reduction, fades, a little eq’ing

A particularly music cardboard box provided the percussion instrument that was struck by my hand in a number of ways:

Glad to finally get something up on Freesound.
Have a good week!

A few days ago when I went to wash the dishes, I found I had a couple glasses stacked so that when the faucet dripped into them there was a pretty long, wobbly resonance. This seems like a good time to offer up those samples for some Hugh Le Caine action. They do seem to sound pretty nice pitched up & down and/or timestretched.

I’m including a bit of room tone since the noise floor is maybe not so awesome.

I’ll get a playlist rolling shortly. There’s a lot of music that’s download-only (not streaming), which is perfectly fine, so folks will need to kinda go back and forth between this thread and the SoundCloud playlist when we do a follow-up project employing the beats. Thanks, everyone!

hey peeps!

“Didn’t have much time to spend tweaking these - but basically spent a good while with our noisy froggies, couldn’t get a lot of tonal variety, though there are different croakers - I tried to listen out for interesting little rhythmical snippets, as they make a bunch of interesting beats, a bit like a shaker or something… I listened to them a good 20 mins, with the bats flying over the pond too - towards the end I became aware of a sympathetic resonance or something in my ear drums: i was hearing a sound they weren’t making, in my ears, a kind of complementary rhythm - they are quite loud and really get the old membranes bouncing! I haven’t done anything to the samples, just snipped at zero crossings, hope someone finds them useful!”

I have a tiny buchla, which consists of a touch sensing note memory, a 258J Osc, and a 292h lo pass gate. I made this kit by just jamming on the tsnm and spinning knobs.

my original idea involving bowed deer antlers and spent bullets didn’t quite work out, so twenty minutes to midnight i picked up an empty cereal box.
