Sounds good! Growling waves.
I’ve never heard of Iris 2 before, it looks intriguing!

My second riff on a randomly selected solo piece from disquiet0472. Original track by @Bleepeater of processed field recordings on a bus.

I used a Max patch with 500 upper (varying) harmonics of a varying fundamental to create my contribution which I edited in Pro Tools, adding some Valhalla Supermassive. Like the first part of the track, this is a stereo mix of stereo tracks. Separate stems are available to download for anyone taking part in disquiet0474 at this link.

Stereo version:

Hard panned version:

This is my second jam this week and chose @hightowersdeepwells awesome track. It gave some nice Jon Brion vibes and sounded sweet. I immediately heard som bellowing instrument that I wanted to add, but I didn’t know the name of it or how to identify it. Alas I recorded some of the other sounds welling up and went to town with Arturia’s Matrix-12 and Farfisa for melody and used Kontakt’s stock symphony flute. I tried to leave room, but I might have gone to vertical with the Matrix-12, but I still think the track is plenty open for more additions :smile: Maybe even som nice birds, @gis_sweden, for next week :smile:

I made a minor edit to the original track, making it a bit longer, but structurally nothing has changed. I just made it loopable in order to work on it.

Second contribution for this week. I used the lovely Reverse Java from @gibbsdavidl as a starting point.

My part, mostly sine tones in Max, is a Derbyshire-esque lead line, inelegantly smeared and distorted.


@melondruie Thanks for Full Stop. Your work is a proper complement to the original (which is a bit of a diva).

took @RPLKTR jammin medusa riff… and made some… jelly?

a fully wet delay, and samples from youtube (the dry of the samples is mixed back in, but not of the original track… which makes the panned version weird to listen to lol… I included a stereo version [in the playlist] of just my part because it was a stereo delay, but by all means use the mono if that floats your boat)

second contribution is @Zeke_B 's from last week added a lil beat using arcologies and glia’s sample pack

So I eventually did my second duet with @Anatol . I selected it randomly, having decided I liked it when listening through but not thinking I could add to it meaningfully without making it worse (and therefore not selecting it). I had a number of thoughts regarding what I might add but in the end I decided to go simple. Having listened through a couple of times I did a one take improvisation on piano. Listening to my part alone I decided it could do with a little something extra, so I added a repetetive bleep pattern in the background which I brought in and out a few times.

Hardware wise, the bleeps were from my modular playing a Euclidean rhythm synced to my MPC which was playing the original piece and the piano. In this case the piano was my MPC port of the free salamander piano. Beyond that there isn’t much to report other than my typical EQ effects and mastering.

You can download a version with the two parts hard panned here. Thanks for another great project everyone.

Oh that’s great! Is there feedback in that patch? Very cool.

This adds to rhein’s track, Safe. And also takes a fairly safe approach. Some piano and later a sequenced Newfangled Audio Gravitate with a little tape effect and some echo and reverb.

I’ve collaborated with @rens by adding a selection of my 2020 haiku to his keyboard piece.

This track can be downloaded here for the next Junto activity

I randomly picked @mattmadd 's lovely guitar improvisation and added some simple loops based only on that first recording, introducing it around the middle of the original sound and extending it for a while, which would give enough space on both sides for a third layer – fingers crossed!

Thank you, @renegog! I love what you did an definitely need to check out glia’s sample pack because those samples are really cool-sounding.

Very nice addition. I had absolutely no expectation about what part 2 should be. Guitar was great.

excellent, the lick with the little chromatic note is perfect! E-D#-E-D-C-B love it, makes the track even more “surf-Tarantino”.

Really nice work! Enjoyed hearing what you did with this & thanks for your kind words about the source material.

Thanks… it was fun to play on. Nice use of electronics and field recording.

Well done! The repetition on the vox pulls against the repetition on the keys nicely. Such much watermelon!

I chose @Xylr’s excellent 0472 submission to do a cover of, from scratch. I then merged the original’s left channel with my right, and this is the result.
