Wax Lyrical [disquiet0010-reflect]

This is a remix for the Disquiet Junto. It is comprised of other projects/remixes from previous entries for the Junto.

I used the following tracks (from the Wax Cylinder remix project a few weeks ago):
soundcloud.com/dustmotes/time-...ge-disquiet0006
soundcloud.com/hightunnels/gen...ns-disquiet0006
a few elements from this (from the 'Subtraction' project, removing elements from a recording of waves):
soundcloud.com/nonwrestler/jet...aguar-tides-out

and quite a bit from this excellent interview with Marc Weidenbaum, moderator/curator/creator of the Disquiet Junto:
SoundCloud Speaks - 001 - Disquiet/Marc Weidenbaum by SoundCloud Community Team

I cut the above tracks up in Audacity, and fed them to my Korg Electribe ES1, which I used to manipulate and sequence the samples. My aim was to deconstruct the interview into a mixture of nonsense and a kind of bizarre comment on the remix itself (i.e. the one I have posted here).

No other instruments were added - everything is sampled from one of the above tracks and played through the Electribe.

I had originally planned to use the above tracks to make a hip-hop track to share with the Disquiet Junto, but I couldn't find (or produce!) any suitable vocals. I had made some small progess in Ardour when this week's assignment was set, so I decided to abandon it in favour of this. I ended up using some of the same samples but doing doing everything else from scratch.

The original instructions for this project were as follows:

"The tenth Junto provides an opportunity to reflect on what the group's participants have accomplished in the past nine weeks. The project is as follows: all participants will produce a remix of any track of their liking from any of the past projects (that is, any of the tracks from projects 0001 through 0009). One clarification: please make certain that the track you select is eligible for remixing. If you're not sure, contact either the musician (via "Send Message" within Soundcloud) or me (at marc@disquiet.com) for confirmation. There is one additional track option; you can remix the recent Soundcloud podcast that was about the Junto."
