B&R (shifting spirits mix) disquiet0358

tried to imagine if i hadnt really heard music before. rhythm i think would be linked to my heart beat conceptually. i looked up the etymology of blue. this too might be linked to the heart: the idea of a bruised heart. since about 1400 blue has been linked to low spirits.

i had some simple flute basoon and tuba samples loaded and those thru a tremolo for a pulse. in audacity i had some echo 5 semitones higher. the emotional tone is a bit more variable listening back

Disquiet Junto Project 0358: Rhythm + Blue(s)
The Assignment: An exercise in genre.

Thanks to Micah Stupak-Hahn for having proposed this project.

Step 1: Consider the term “rhythm and blues.” Not the genre, just the term.

Step 2: Imagine what you might think “rhythm and blues” meant in terms of music had you never previously heard “rhythm and blues” music.

Step 3: Record a short piece of music that expresses the idea of “rhythm and blues” that occurred to you in Step 2 above.
