I live next to a highway, not a massively busy one, but still. it ends up sounding like a drone, and that’s where I started. everything else meant to evoke what may be happening outside, though I go out so little these days, who can tell.

@DeDe

That’s cool how you brought so many elements together. My attention was taken by the wide stereo effect on the drums. It made me feel like the drummer.

@sevenism

This city feels chilly. Big gusts of icy reverb.

@euclidian

Feels like a city and I want to go home.

@kn00t

Welcome to the Junto. This is subtle and the pace is pleasant.

@Glitcher

It sounds like the streets are wet and the instrumentation has an effect like rain.

@mdh

It was good to read about your process. That reverse effect does evoke a feeling of remembering somewhere.

@krakenkraft

Love the slow build here and the bloopy bits with intermittent horn. Feels like I’ve had a bit to drink and am being lured onto the dancefloor.

@SussMusik

Nice sense that there’s another surprise waiting around the corner.

@gis_sweden

The rhythm of the train and that hiss is really evocative.

@architecturalstudies

The delay gives good depth. I’m keen to see your graph paper, as that seems like an interesting process.

@Noimspartacus

Lovely textures. The sense of moving through an unseen space.

@Zedkah

Underpass dub is so evocative. The tempo is fast but I could imagine a bassline would fit in here.

@Ben_Levisohn

I can picture this as a highway. The stereo effect gives a sense of that.

Such a great prompt, and one that can keep you going. Was working on a series of vignettes of Japan and here is one of the versions for Tokyo. Combination of classic, almost rural sounds (but artificially generated) and electronic.

Thanks Jason, I think there are 3 drum loops placed on the stereo field, complementing each other. This is the sort of mash-up impossible to make in the analogue years, I brought everything to the tapping bass tempo, stretching, manipulating, quantizing. It was like working with midi, very funny.
Thanks for you words and listening.

Giving feedback is part of the assignment, so let me try;

@ DeDe: Love the bandoneon and how it links Argentina and Germany.

@ euclidean: Metallic sound. Would like to know more about the creation process.

@ sevenism: I had to resist checking all the references and to concentrate on the music. Reminds me of a traing moving by in slow motion - upwards.

@ Glitcher: The Glockenspiel is so gentle. Thank you.

@ mdh: Checked my Ditto Looper. There is a reverse knob there too. Makes me thinking… I do not remember what is in the pedal memory. Need check.

@ krakenkraft: Loved the deep bass sound to start with. There can be cows in Garching!

@ SussMusik: I was wondering where the piano went after 1:20. Only to see it reappearing as violins after 3:00. So nice!

@ bassling: Enjoyed that bicycle ride and spending time outside is a big plus.

@ gis_sweden: I can feel the calmness.

@ architecturalstudies: Elaborating on cyclic nature on graph paper made me thinking. Thanks a lot for the piece.

@ fakeg3nius: This evoked memories of an old children song or melody inside me.

@ ray_cobley Full of nice surprises.

Thank you for the warm welcome in the Junto.

I think the playlist is up to date, but if your track goes missing, lemme know. Thanks, everyone.

Thank you! I just outlined a basic grid of 16 with markers for each 1/4 note beat, and then wrote out each sequenced line with dashes to represent each note. Longer slashes (that go across two boxes) indicate a note tie. It makes it a little easier to keep track of what you’re entering when doing manual step sequencing.

My interpretation of the sound of Seattle. Rain, wind, grey clouds, sadness, and a bit of sun and warmth towards the end.

Used a sample of rain, stuck it in the background and used it to create some windy drone textures. Rest is just me improvising some guitar things and a looped sample run through some effects and smeared around a bit with processing.

Hello, here is my contribution:

maybe a little too literally the sounds of the city, but maybe still interesting.
The process: I combined a few of my field recordings that I collected over the past decade. In Berlin, you inevitably spend a lot of time in public transportation, so these sounds are prominent. But you may also hear some birds or the noises of crowd watching Fußball or something. + Elevator, Door, storm and acoustic traffic lights

Hey All, I went with Berlin as I would love to visit that city someday. I live in a small city so when I visit a big city it is always like another world. NYC is my favorite city I have visited but I wanted to use my imagination for Berlin and of course got a strong techno vibe for Berlin. Hope all are well.

Peace, Hugh
Damn name constant you beat me to the punch.

Last year on a visit to Cairo I walked into a market and heard a catchy tune being played on a boombox. A young man (pictured in foreground) danced while a hawker (in background) exhorted passersby. For this assignment I chopped the audio and added a few musical elements.
