Episodes

  1. In Security [disquiet0771]

    Happy 90th birthday to Mr. Steve Reich – a great composer. I ran a generative piano track into the two Ciat Lonbarde Cafeteria Stereo loopers. They are differently spaced, their audio overlaps just a bit (so it's not the same as "it's Gonna Rain", where only one loop is a bit longer). While the...

  2. Enchanter

    Short'n (kinda) sweet: Loaded some loops in Spotykach, added some heat and reverb with Elektron Analog Heat.

  3. Fante

    The sister piece to Camus: https://soundcloud.com/analoc/camus. Live Jam with the Ciat Lonbarde Cafeteria Stereo and some piano samples, someday in March 2026.

  4. Driftwood

    To my ears, this sounds like a tension block in an Arthouse movie. What's your take? Where does this thing belong to? Please feel free to comment. Tech info: Just a granulated loop, recorded in one take, with a hint of Valhalla Supermassive reverb at the end.

  5. Cinnabar

    I revisited a drone I made 12 years ago, had Ableton extract the harmonies to MIDI, arranged the MIDI file with 3 piano tracks and a bass.

  6. Chromatic Fields

    Again, it's Monome Norns Dronecaster (what a beautiful script!) sent to the Analog Heat +FX. For me, it's the sister track to Bodily Forms (https://soundcloud.com/analoc/bodily-forms) Sounds kinda sweet and broken, and that’s how I like it.

  7. Bodily Forms

    A Norns script sent to Analog Heat +FX

  8. Kling Klang Rain [disquiet0752]

    This is not a "music track", but a sound contribution for the Berner Musikfestival 2026 (https://www.musikfestivalbern.ch). Read more about it below: A thunder clap plus two beds of "metallic rain" for Musikfestival Bern 2026. Finally, my field recording of a thunderstorm in Munich came to use.…

  9. Torii (for Drone Day 2026)

    It's dr(((((((((((o)))))))))))ne day 2026, and here's my humble contribution. More about Drone Day at https://droneday.org

  10. Pink Meadows [disquiet0750]

    First and foremost: Thank you, dear fellow Disquieters, *and especially Marc Weidenbaum* for having 750 chances of making music and listening to your wonderful tracks. The Junto is something I hold very dear to my heart. Thank you! Regarding my submission? It took me a good day’s work to finish,...

  11. Triple Fruity [disquiet0749] with Daniel Diaz and Hugh G 333.3

    This is part three of a trio. Read more about the process below. I got hooked by the „instant headbanging“ feeling of Hugh G 333.3’s „Will to let go“ (https://soundcloud.com/hugh-g-333-3/will-to-let-go), who, in turn, used used a recording from Daniel Diaz...

  12. Cascade [disquiet0748] with xiiixxi

    This is part two of a three-part challenge. I love piano loops, and xiiixxi’s instantly hit my sweet spot (https://soundcloud.com/xiiixxi/disquiet-junto-and-a-one-1). I doubled the piano, panned it hard, added some distortion (Brut), half-time delay, and a bit of wash with Micro-Cascade. Ableton...

  13. Mbokuyandika [disquiet0747]

    This is a contribution to the Disquiet Junto-Challence 747 (see below). Please feel free to axe any frequencies, cut, splice and make it work for you. I hope it's not too full and polished already. 114 BPM --- Disquiet Junto Project 0747: And a One (1/3) The Assignment: Record the first third of…

  14. Camus

    First experiments with the Ciat Lombarde Cafeteria Stereo. A short generative piano loop, looped, no extra FX.

  15. Bountiful

    Goddamn, did it really take me two years until I was satisfied with this track? It seems so. Started in April 2023 with a highly-treated, noisy, pumping sample from Toby Schay. Bass from Elka, Melody from the ever amazing S&A Choreographs with Arturias Fragments. The breakdown section came from a...

  16. Bountiful

    Goddamn, did it really take me two years to finish this track? Seems so. Started in April 2023 with a highly-treated, noisy, pumping sample from Toby Schay. Bass from Elka, Melody from the ever amazing S&A Choreographs with Arturias Fragments. The breakdown section came from a failed attempt to...

  17. Silver Linings

    ... just having an hour of fun on a Sunday afternoon. Production Notes: Ciat Lombarde's Sidrax goes into Norns excellent "Grainscape". Treated with Silo, LofiAF, Supermassive.

  18. Expectations

    It's been a rough ride in the last months, but slowly, things are falling into place again. Production was simple: I pumped a generative Wotja track into the ever amazing Cocoquantus, and added some Strings'n'Reverb from Slate & Ash at the end.

  19. Colombo

    I'm currently taking a songwriting course, and as usual, I was late for homework. On Friday afternoon, I went straight from my job to a lovely Munich cafe, sat on a table with my notebook, and started observing. - They were playing some kind of easy-listening electronic music in the background....

  20. Carved Out [disquiet0607]

    I had started out with the assignment yesterday… today, I re-read the instructions and found that I might have been on a wrong track. Is it 0-40-60-0 of overall volume? Or the ratio of sound to silence in the overall piece? Not being totally sure about this, I started to carve out bits and pieces...

  21. 643152 [disquiet0601]

    Using an old Norns loop as a drone base, I prepared for a session with Lucid Grain; so I added seven types of sounds - piano, bells, noises, voice and strings, etc – which only play one or two notes at random. I didn’t have an idea how to introduce these blocks of sounds until this week’s prompt...

  22. A Warm Smile [disquiet0600]

    The 600th Disquiet Junto? Wow. Thanks you so much, Marc, and of course all of you participants! The Junto has played a key role in my live, and I can’t thank all of you enough. I withstood the idea to go for pure ambient with the material. Instead I tried to make a mellow piece with a bit of a...

  23. Cosmea [disquiet0484]

    **Production Notes** Life in the city feels can feel monotonous during the pandemic. So my wife and I flee to my parent’s garden over the weekend whenever possible. I recorded Chris Kallmyer’s wind chimes with a plenty of ambience full of birds, bees, and cycling planes overhead. I’m still amazed...

  24. Whatever Comes [disquiet0472]

    **Production Notes** This is a contribution to the Disquiet Junto project (see paragraph below). If you’re interested in the full stereo version, please go here: https://soundcloud.com/analoc/0121-whatever-comes I set up an generative Ableton set just to have it noodling in the background to calm...

  25. 19 Meters Band [disquiet0407]

    This recording was made in Summer 2014 at 2am, sitting on the rooftop on a house in Mallorca. The radio was tuned to the 19 meters band, I didn’t interfere at all... so technically, it‘s a field recording. I am constantly surprised of the musical content you can find in-between shortwave radio...

  26. Eideponmyg [disquiet0363]

    **Production Notes** In 2016, I challenged myself to get make some variations of Satie’s Gymnopedie. For this particular recording I took the MIDI-file recording, reversed it in Ableton, and just added some fairy-dust reverb to it. What I like about it that it somehow resembles the mood, but…

  27. Mommy, Look!

    Lucid Grain is Martha Plachetka (a.k.a. Panic Girl) and myself, improvising mostly on modular gear. Album "Rise & Fall" out on Bandcamp on December, 1rst: http://store.modularfield.net/album/rise-fall

  28. The Loss Foundation [disquiet0293]

    **Production Notes** I can’t help, but the whole Bassel Khartabil case really got to me. I’ve been thinking a lot about him over the last months. Like everyone participating in the Disquiet Junto, I hoped for a happy ending. I was shocked, sad and angry when I heard the news of his murder. Hence...

  29. Bad Glamour

    **Production Notes** Phonogene, Clouds & Cinnamon to Analog Heat. Recorded live. ...oh, and "Bad Glamour" is an anagram of Abul Mogard.

  30. FiftySix

    Contains a sample of the FM3’s Buddha Machine.

  31. Calderon Hondo I [disquiet0284]

    ### 0617 0617 Disquiet Junto 284 Calderon Hondo I Calderon Hondo I disquiet0284 **Production Notes** Edited a short piece from of the original material. Put this in my trusty ambient v03 for some granular base. Added pieces of the original material with some ping pong delays (Objeq Delay from…

    more
  32. Come On [disquiet0249]

    **Production Notes** Found an interesting interview with Steve Reich in which he talked about the origins of his music. I extracted a short piece of the interview, made a even shorter one for looping and arranged the phasing loops in Ableton. It sounded completely mechanical and boring. So the...

  33. Grain Concrete [disquiet0244]

    **Production Notes** Back to my new favorite addiction (and it’s becoming one hell of an obsession), my modular. The Makenoise "Phonogene" behaves like a monophonic tape machine - you can record „tape“, „splice it“ and then play the material by applying modulation, alter starting points etc. It’s…

  34. Putting An End To Culture

    Putting An End To Culture by analoc

  35. Beatrix Oliver [disquiet0237]

    **Production Notes** For this assignment, I used a free Reaktor Blocks Ensemble called „Beatrix Radio“ ([https://www.native-instruments.com/en/reaktor-community/reaktor-user-library/entry/show/9887/]). It’s an interesting sample slicer full with EQ’s, delay lines and a nice saturated reverb. I...

  36. Pepper Please [disquiet0233]

    **Production Notes** A Disquiet Junto Netlabel Remix for me traditionally is about beats and how to get the material in a nice groove. This time, I hit brick walls. After extracting some bits from the source material (mainly from „Pepper Jelly“ and „Bump“), I found my usual approach didn’t work.…

    more
  37. Ghammar Rooftops [disquiet0230]

    # 0516 Disquiet Junto 230 Ghammar Rooftops Ghammar Rooftops disquiet0230 **Production Notes** Whenever I’m on vacation, I try to bring back some shortwave radio recordings. It‘s absolutely amazing what you can get out of the shortwave band - modular morse code, enchanting melodies, tons of…

    more
  38. Bbm11/A [disquiet227]

    **Production Notes** I felt Eno’ish today. Tried some chords, and somehow Bbm11/A stuck. Recorded the single notes or octaves onto different tracks, which all had a different length, so nothing should repeat. As for instruments, I used String Studio V2, Chromaphone, Absynth and Rhythmic Robot...

  39. Saltimbanque [disquiet0222-boundedfoundation]

    **Production Notes** For this piece I took a slowly fading drone („the cloud“), added some Vibraphone/Marimba licks, which went into Augustus Loop Plug-In for a loooong delay treat („Shifting Bottom“). Also added a bass. I’m on a short vacation in Switzerland, relying only on my computer and some...

  40. Smell The Coffee [disquiet0221-morningmusic]

    **Production Notes** There are two sides to this piece. First: I adore Domenico Scarlattis Sonata In B Minor, L 33 - Andante Mosso, especially the interpretation by Vladimir Horowitz - I could listen to it all day long. As my piano capabilities are way too limited to play the piece, I went to the...

  41. Disaster Piece [disquiet0220-rhythmicarrhythmic]

    **Production Notes** I found a sample I recorded in the „Klanggarten“ near Grünwald / Straßlach several years ago. You go through a curtain of wooden poles which then collide and make some sounds - quite nice ones, actually. Normally I’d try to shift the transients to archieve a rhythmic pattern,...

  42. Early Birds [disquiet0218-soundpassage]

    **Production Notes** Some days ago, I awoke at 5:00 a.m.. The birds were singing outside, and as I live right in the noisy city center, that‘s an unusual sound tapestry. The birds weren’t as loud as on the recording, but they sounded very cheerful… so I got up and started my field recorder. To…

  43. Ten Ton Pin [disquiet0217-formsong]

    **Production Notes** I started Thursday night. Robert Lally's „Square Pins in Thin Layers“ [https://soundcloud.com/rupertlally/square-pins-in-thin-layers-disquiet0216-thinlayers] immediately caught my attention. I extracted three four-bar-parts of his lovely piece which served as chords, pads and...

  44. Bed & Crackers [disquiet0216-thinlayers]

    **Production Notes** I went for emi minami’s lovely „tinyrhythms“, a mixture of pins and insects, recorded with a contact mike. You find it here: [https://soundcloud.com/emiminami/tinyrhythms] Picked some tonal parts of a newer drone piece, arranged them. I cheated a bit in the length, it’s not...

  45. 1190 [disquiet0214-microtonalerrata]

    **Production Notes** Ooh, music maths. So, here we go. Gb: 369,99 Hz. Wrong microtone = 409,73 = plus 39,74 ct Corrected frequency = 411,18 Hz = plus 41,19 ct First I went for the sinewave approach, which turned out too bleak, as I couldn’t find a good musical idea. So I fired up iZotope Iris,...

  46. Romeo and Juliet [disquiet0212-484hzlovesongs]

    **Production Notes** Mosquitoes? I prefer cats. But the possibility of adding their highly annoying sound into a love song really got my attention. Surfed the Interwebs and found a recording of an „Aedes Albopictus“ a.k.a. Asian Tiger Mosquito. Pitched the sample to roughly 484 Hz. The little...

  47. Windy Winter‘s Night [disquiet0211-midnightinsideout]

    **Production Notes** At exactly 12:00 a.m. on January 14th, 2016, I pressed „Record“ on two field recorders. One was positioned outside my flat, balancing on the window sill; the second one was placed inside near my desk. First, you hear some of the „outside“ world, then you hear me typing these...

  48. Argentino [disquiet0210-icecoda]

    **Production Notes** Ironic: We have a new fridge, but the ice cubes weren’t ready. So I resorted to the samples I recorded last year. You can hear the ice cubes bit in all drum parts, the pads and also the lead in the middle part. The rest was a self-assembled TB-303, Kontakts Una Corda, Ableton...

  49. Ridante Budho [disquiet0206 - Threeswitches]

    **Production Notes** This assignment was the perfect excuse to give in to my gear acquisition syndrome: I bought the Buddha Machine Collection 1-5. I really love these boxes, have experimented with them for years now and was always keen to get them sampled properly (at least, thats my excuse for...

  50. Inside Out [disquiet0204-underbeat]

    **Production Notes** Quadupled the source material in Ableton Live. Reduced three tracks to their transients, so that they produced audible spikes. Pitched this material +12 and -24 notes. Added several send FX chains, consisting mainly of NI Replica delays. Started the track. First you hear the...
