Disquiet Junto Project 0222: Bounded Foundation

Started with a simple rhythm, few bass notes, compressed, side chained noise, added second bass sound, ring modulated, same pattern shifted forward an 8th note. Simple top line derived from bass line, added chords and second top line based on second bass line. Everything except the rhythm fed into pitch shifters and Eventide Black hole reverbs.

The Assignment: Compose a piece for contemporary dance — with a “soft top” and a “shifting bottom.”

This is the second project we’re doing with artist and engineer Paolo Salvagione for an extended piece of choreography he’s working on. The result of the project is intended for potential use as a sonic backdrop for the dance performance, and also as a form of research into the materials and ideas being explored by Salvagione and the dancers.
