_disquiet0299 by ¶radio hummingbird

this is ¶radio hummingbird's contribution to this week's disquiet junto with the serial number 0299. in short, the requirement for this contribution was to create a dance song with no more than 10bpm for the friendly folks at One Take Records in copenhagen. an additional challenge added to this assignment for the disquiet junto was to execute the desired piece in 3/4 waltz measure. no easy task, to be honest.

for the lack of a physical clock source which i could get down to 10bpm i have been, for the first time, fully diverted into solely using a daw for creating a piece of music. pheeew. and what made matters worse is that ableton didn't allow me to go as low as 10bpm as well so i had to be creative and hope i have been successfully achieving this challenge: using the cyclic sequencer to create 10bpm gates (which in fact also allowed a minimum of 20bpm as ableton)........and here we go. the tools used were ableton's live drum rack, cyclic sequencer, bengal software synth and the granulator II fed with a field recording from within in a moving train carriage.

enjoy the ride, it wasn't an easy one to come up with.
