Other the bell mechanical
a golden sleep beneath a grainy, shiny tree [disquiet0103-tinselsong]

Selected these three tracks:

Sample A: Rauschgold, by L-A-J:
soundcloud.com/l-a-j-1/rauschg...ld-disquiet0102

Sample B: Grains and Pitch, by Jacob Newman:
soundcloud.com/captured-space/...ch-disquiet0102

Sample C: Asleep Under the Tree, by lordofoverstock :
soundcloud.com/lordofoverstock...-under-the-tree

Arranged into ABACABAC as directed. I eventually introduce some harmonizing elements (simple pitch shifts) as the piece goes on. Made a chorus/bridge/break using modified versions of the same loops (in a different “key”).

The “bell” sound that comes in later is from my own disquiet #0102 track from last week:

And please enjoy whatever December-Soltiscey thing your particular culture celebrates right about now.

Disquiet Junto Project 0103: Tinsel Song

This week’s project, the 103rd, is based on last week's, the 102nd. The instructions are as follows:

Step 1: Select three different works from last week's project, as collected at this URL: 

soundcloud.com/disquiet/sets/d...102-sonictinsel

Step 2: Label them Source A, B, and C.

Step 3: Create an underlying foundation for a song by creating a loop-able segment structured as follows: four beats of Source A, four beats of Source B, four beats of Source A, four beats of Source C. 

Step 4: Let that loop repeat twice before introducing any additional elements.

Step 5: Continue to loop the segment and augment/distort/filter it as you so desire, and introduce any additional material, toward the goal of creating an original piece of music.

Bonus Round: If you are inclined, create a chorus for the song by holding Source B for an extended period of time, and create a bridge by holding Source C for an extended period of time. Again, feel free to augment/distort/filter them.

Deadline: Monday, December 23, 2013, at 11:59pm wherever you are.

Length: Your track’s length should be between 1 and four minutes.
