Loop indefinitely.

Slime Damage - Shepard Repeat Variant 8-053 is an unused fragment of an upcoming LP I am currently working on. The original recording this loop is excerpted from was recorded in one take with Eurorack and Bugbrand modular synthesizers. The right channel has been reversed, and two computer synthesized Shepard tones at differing rates, one panning r-l and the other l-r over the length of the loop, were added later.

Note that while this file is intended to be used with Soundcloud's new loop function, the downloaded version will loop much more cleanly than the streaming version.

This loop was created for the Disquiet Junto 0153: Groove Lock Project on December 6th, 2014. The instructions for this project were as follows:

The Assignment: Record a short sound intended to be set on repeat.

SoundCloud recently introduced the ability for a track to be looped on the website. That is, the listener can hit a button (details at disquiet.com/QVvCF) and the track will play over and over. This week’s project will make use of that feature. This week’s project will also, I should note, inform next week’s project. But you can do next week’s without doing this week’s, and vice-versa.

Step 1: Record a short, original piece of music/sound of between roughly 3 and 9 seconds intended to be set on repeat.

Step 2: Upload the finished track to the Disquiet Junto group on SoundCloud.

Step 3: Listen to and comment on tracks uploaded by your fellow Disquiet Junto participants.

Length: Your finished work should be between roughly 3 and 9 seconds long.

Deadline: This assignment was made in the evening, California time, on Thursday, December 4, with 11:59pm on the following Monday, December 8, 2014, as the deadline.
