The Disquiet Junto project this week asks participants to combine a couple of influences.
I'd been playing with a melody that reminded me of the gargle of a wattle bird, then arrived at giving it an accompaniment that I found kinda jazzy.
(Admittedly, jazzy for me lately is electric piano and pizzicato double bass samples.)
Then I added more electronic elements and thought it sounded like early Senor Coconut.
And, before long, I was imagining the winter that Uwe Schmidt spent in Melbourne before he moved to Santiago.
Then I wondered if he had a lonely afternoon jamming with a wattle bird.
