Interruptus (disquiet0754)

This track began as a work-in-progress session: an improvised bass line built from simple, repetitive figures evolving through a tempo-synced delay, locked to a steady Motorik drum beat. An electric guitar part followed. Then came this week's Junto challenge prompt: "Create a piece of music by regularly or irregularly interrupting an ongoing process." So I decided to interrupt the process itself. Throughout the piece, I randomly mute the bass and filter the drums in real time, leaving the guitar chords untouched to fill the resulting gaps. The rhythmic flow stumbles, disappears, and reappears, while the underlying process keeps trying to continue. The result is raw: a live snapshot of something interrupted, but not finished. I'll be returning to the full piece soon, but this detour was fun. Composed and performed by DD.
