Disquiet Junto Project 0237: Combination ABCs
Used field recordings of Cicadas at the open air pool, (in loop A only), and field recording of seagulls around morning time on a city street. (There is some indistict human voice in both these recordings, plus some ambient street noise, cars, door slams etc.). Using this source material built up atmos for each loop and cut rhythms out of sounds.
Used a voice recording with some wobbly pitch shift and cut little vocal bits using one phrase. Also used this same phrase reversed audio to make some parts.
used this structure:
90seconds:
A, B, C, A+B, A+C, B+C, A+B+C, A+B, A
96bpm

Disquiet Junto Project 0237: Combination ABCs
The Assignment: Build a 90-second composition from three 10-second segments.
Project Steps:
Step 1: Record three 10-second sound elements. Keep in mind that they will be layered subsequently in various combinations. You might find it useful to set one or more of the elements to loop naturally after 10 seconds, but you might also enjoy the seam where a given loop begins again.
Step 2: Label the three 10-second sound elements A, B, and C.
Step 3: Create a 90-second track of the following sequence of standalone and combined elements: A, B, C, A+B, A+C, B+C, A+B+C, A+B, A.
Step 4: Your track is complete. However, you may opt to go back in and adjust transitions and add effects
