Jet Jaguar - Slow Night [disquiet0541] by Jet Jaguar (NZ) published on 2022-05-13T08:54:26Z For the Disquiet Junto this week, I chose the option to "Record what you imagine it would sound like to attend a club event of 10BPM techno, including crowd noise." I wrote a sequence at a normal-ish techno tempo, then slowed down the master tempo in my DAW to 10bpm. Techno typically evolves slowly, in blocks of 16 or so bars, and while I didn't quite stick to that, I thought it wouldn't feel really like it was 10bpm if I messed with the structure. So I decided to focus my efforts on making it sound at least a bit like being in a club. I used convolution to feed the whole mix through a night club's PA, using these free impulse responses. http://www.balancemastering.com/blog/free-funktion-one-impulse-responses-ir-irs-convolution/ I mixed the music with a couple of crowd / bar noise recordings from freesound. https://freesound.org/people/Pfannkuchn/sounds/457606/ https://freesound.org/people/Tomlija/sounds/100904/ I faded the thing in and out, to give a bit more of a feeling of just a captured recording of a club night. I don't think the result is convincing, but it was fun to do.
