Other the bell mechanical
different winds, rival shores [disquiet0254]

Downloaded the two samples, used these to create five stems:

-The 'sad piano' loop
-each sound turned into an instrument with Sampler (Ableton)
-a 'wavy static' sound for background
-the foghorn itself, barely treated.

Set up the 3 loops, 'played' the two sampler tracks over that, some cleanup/mixing afterwards.

Disquiet Junto Project 0254: Fog and Steam
Make music from two provided samples.

For the 254th weekly project, we’re going to revisit the second project, from back in early January 2012.

Step 1: Download these two samples:

Fog Horn: freesound.org/people/schaarsen...en/sounds/69663

Train Whistle: freesound.org/people/ecodios/s...s/sounds/119963

Step 2: Create an original piece of music utilizing just those samples from Step 1. You can only use those two samples, and you can do whatever you want with them.

Deadline: This project was posted in the late morning, California time, on Thursday, November 10, 2016, with a deadline of 11:59pm wherever you are on Monday, November 14, 2016.

Length: The length is up to you, but three minutes sounds about right.

Title/Tag: When posting your track, please include “disquiet0254” in the title of the track, and where applicable (on SoundCloud, for example) as a tag.

Upload: When participating in this project, post one finished track with the project tag, and be sure to include a description of your process in planning, composing, and recording it. This description is an essential element of the communicative process inherent in the Disquiet Junto. Photos, video, and lists of equipment are always appreciated.

Download: It is necessary, due to the licensing of the source audio, that your track is set as downloadable, and that it allows for attributed remixing (i.e., a Creative Commons license permitting non-commercial sharing with attribution).

Linking: When posting the track online, please be sure to include this information:
