Disquiet Junto 0416 Time Laps
The Junto instructions this week outline a process of improvising parts, which are then reversed.
I decided to use some drums I'd recorded earlier as the first part.
After reversing those I recorded the chord progression on the electric ukulele, then turned to the bass.
By the time I reversed everything again, I'd gotten confused about the progression but managed to record a take when I stayed in key.
The result has moments that catch my ear, so I can see how this could be an interesting process for composition.
