This is your fretless bass alarm clock. Best way in town for a happy, glorious wake up.
8 tracks of fretless bass guitar recorded on Friday 24th 2017 between 15h and 17h.
Alarm clocks and bells from my vaults.
Love,
DD

Hi, after my track submitted last week to the 429th junto challenge:
a solo Fender Telecaster track, some fellas recorded a second part for a virtual duet, here the resulting tracks:
I’m honoured to have these people for all around the globe taking time to improve my track. Thanks for listening, cheers

Some tracks , experimentations and essays I contributed to the weekly junto challenges during January, February and March 2020:
let’s call this a mess, a collage or an impromtu montage.
It was fun.

Myself
I added orchestral percussions and several synths
Challenge:
Create a piece of choral music from the provided samples. You are encouraged to make music that feels “human,” that feels like it is simply a lot of people singing at once. However, of course, the end result is up to you; you can and should mix, mash, and create as you please.
Twenty steps to the moon.
I usually take the assignment quite seriously, the challenge is the main point for me.
So excuse me to take a free interpretation this week.
The “theme” comes from the upcoming [20+20](www.instagram.com/20x20_project/) mini album I did for @audio-obscura-music ‘s netlabel. I used a rejected variation (the 21st one) from the 20 variations, 20 seconds each, I recorded
I expanded it using a project I’ve been working on these past few days, whose working title coincidentally was “Lunar Soundscape”. I used the 20 sec tracks and the Lunar tracks (not in the same key or tempo, but nobody cares, right?) and combined and moved them all to make this 2 minute lunar vignette.
You’ll hear:
Synthesizers
Ronroco
Fretless Bass

Disquiet Junto Project 0420: Luna Tick
The Assignment: Make music that proceeds according to the phases of the moon, in celebration of Lunar New Year.
Upright piano, synthesizers.
Recorded @ Paris and Buenos Aires over the years…
Created for:
**Disquiet Junto Project 0428: Urban Moss**
*Step 1: Consider how many concert posters have spent time on an old telephone pole before being torn down or succumbing to the elements. Think about the wear on the wood, the rust on the vestigial staples, as time has passed.
*Step 2: Record a short piece of music that pays tribute to the accumulated echoes of past concerts promoted here over the years.*

-The beat is 7/4 with a weird “drum kit” consisted of Argentina’s Bombo Leguero ad finger snaps.
-There’s no clear melody but instead some melodic fragments that never quite repeat and develop but make a “mantra” like melodic pastiche that, well, sticks to you.
-Structure is also quite weird, particularly if you follow the melodies.
-Instrumentation is ridiculous:
Ukulele Bass (Kala U-Bass)
Two Ukuleles
Marimba
Tongue Drum
Harmonica
Lead analog synth
Balafon (x2)
Special guest Miguel Yanover: Soprano sax.
