Sorry I haven’t downloaded the advance copy of your album yet, but I’m mesmerized by the promotional website’s waveform depictions of your individual tracks.

Cleaning up an old hard drive. Here’s a photo from December 2006 from one of my favorite places in Tokyo, in the Sendagaya neighborhood. Sadly the place has long since closed down. Saw so many good concerts here.
Disquiet Junto Project 0647: Day Drone
The Assignment: Make some daylight drones for Drone Day.
Each Thursday in the Disquiet Junto music community, a new compositional challenge is set before the group’s members, who then have five days to record and upload a track in response to the project instructions.
Membership in the Junto is open: just join and participate. (A SoundCloud account is helpful but not required.) There’s no pressure to do every project. The Junto is weekly so that you know it’s there, every Thursday through Monday, when your time and interest align.
Tracks are added to the SoundCloud playlist for the duration of the project. Additional (non-SoundCloud) tracks also generally appear in the lllllll.co discussion thread.
These following instructions went to the group email list (via juntoletter.disquiet.com).
Disquiet Junto Project 0647: Day Drone
The Assignment: Make some daylight drones for Drone Day.
Step 1: May 25 each year is Drone Day, more about which at droneday.org. This Junto project begins before Drone Day, on the 23rd, and ends after, on the 27th. So, take Drone Day in spirit if not as a calendrical certainty.
Step 2: Think about drones, and the tonality they suggest.
Step 3: Think about making drones that suggest daylight instead of, say, darkness.
Step 4: Record a “day drone” in light of the thinking you did in Step 3.
Tasks Upon Completion:
Label: Include “disquiet0647” (no spaces/quotes) in the name of your track.
Upload: Post your track to a public account (SoundCloud preferred but by no means required). It’s best to focus on one track, but if you post more than one, clarify which is the “main” rendition.
Share: Post your track and a description/explanation at https://llllllll.co/t/disquiet-junto-project-0647-day-drone/
Discuss: Listen to and comment on the other tracks.
Additional Details:
Length: The length is up to you.
Deadline: Monday, May 27, 2024, 11:59pm (that is: just before midnight) wherever you are.

Newsletter: https://juntoletter.disquiet.com/
License: It’s preferred (but not required) to set your track as downloadable and allowing for attributed remixing (i.e., an attribution Creative Commons license).

I love used art. You might say it’s peerless.
