Disquiet Junto Project 0441: Three Stones. The Assignment: Make music that explores territory sonically. At the seashore of the Côte d'Azur (France) you rarely have a sandy beach, most of the time you have pebble beaches. With every wave the pebbles make an unsurpassable and characteristic noise. Sadly I never managed to field record this sound, due to windy noises, general vacation lazyness, forg...

The Assignment: Dismantle the institution known as A440. Why not forget tuning at all? GleetchDrone seemed like a handy tool for this, because of it's 8 oscillators which can be detuned on many levels. I started with all 8 oscillators droning … and ended with a reduced set of separately recorded 4*tracks, 1*osc each, mixing them manually. The result was intended to maintain a certain balance betwe...

Silver Rain by Krakenkraft

Visit this album on Bandcamp: https://krakenkraft.bandcamp.com/album/strange-rooms Based on a recording of the bells of the St. Maximilian church, Munich, plus some other field recordings.

Another unbelievable collaboration: Gonio & Krakenkraft are heavily tripping on magnetic acid! (As usual: way to long, but social distancing was ensured while recording…) TO BE LISTENED LOUDLY! Visit Gonio: https://soundcloud.com/peter-hostermann

Honestly: A little hard to stand … but give it a try, if you are fearless fan of experimental noise … A recut of an AEmodular session, mostly Algrodrone in different filters…

The Assignment: Compose a piece of music in which something special is situated at the very center. The center of all is our search for the reason of existence, and language is our tool, and language is breathing. We inhale the world to understand it, and if you can't breathe, you will stop talking and it will be the end of comprehension … does anything I write here make any sense? OK, I simply wa...

Visit the full album on bandcamp: https://krakenkraft.bandcamp.com/album/a-trip-to-hades The acoustic base material is mostly a one minute Kawai SX-210 recording from the late 90s, recut. The Kawai SX-210 was ugly and not well-known, but I really like it's warm sounds.

Perception Of Continuation (Reizuberflutung Remix) by Krakenkraft

M22 was one of the first soundulars to be discovered and inside the soundular two black sounds had been discovered, which led to the implication that there may be 5 to 100 more black sounds.

Plushy Aquarians by Krakenkraft

Just playing around with the Korg NTS-1 Kit … you are listening to a 4-track session(recorded track by track)with no additional FX, and really: just playing around with no musical sense whatsoever. Verdict: As an external single voice not bad.

I found an old bootleg tape of early "Gonio" https://soundcloud.com/peter-hostermann Berlin School recordings in a shoebox and tried an extended remix of "session 42" …

multiple layers of fractured strains, based on some modular sessions and field recordings

Recut and edit of a modular session which I liked very much.

If your head is too full, take a walk.

Disquiet Junto Project 0435: Woodshed Report: Share something you’ve been working on (and respond to what others post). - Usually, I try to do disquiet junto tracks within some hours. As this piece of music was a lot of work over a long period, I found it fitting for the Woodshed Report. The music is btw in no way related to Charles-Louis Hanon (image) but he was a lot about practicing … The track...
