Disquiet Junto Project 0679: Ice Age
The Assignment: Record the sound of ice in a glass and make something with it.
With my Zoom H5 I recorded some Ice Cubes falling into and moving inside a salad bowl made of glass. I made a lot of efforts to get most out of the sound, for example I placed the bowl on a clotheshorse, so that it can swing more freely … but at the end I didn't use these sounds. I applied a lot of diverse stretching and reverb to get some pads and made a Pigments granular patch with some sounds I liked most. What I had planned didn't work and I made a lot of unusable detours. Now it's mostly an improvisation over some kind of instable repetitive structure, and I like it. All sound is based on the ice cube glass recordings; you may assume there are water noises, but it's really (stretched) ice, maybe sometimes with some surrounding meltwater.
The recordings can be found on my Freesound page
