Disquiet Junto Project 0331: Born Under a Bad Sine
What does it sound like when a robot has the blues?
--
I think if a robot was to have the blues, it would firstly turn to Google to identify the specific emotions that goes into feeling sad, and the reasons for sadness. It wouldn't surprise me if, during Googling, one phrase that will consistently show up is "anger turned inwards".

So I thought the music then created would be slow, replete with mechanical and metallic sounds [because I think a robot would take the idea of "inwards" literally and will reflect on its own body], with a noisy, smouldering core.

Layer 1: Drums
Layer 2: Field recording of squeaking metal, with reverb
Layer 3: Bowed cymbal + reverb, panned left
Layer 4: Bowed cymbal + reverb, panned right
Layer 5: Distorted guitar
Layer 6: Field recording of an MRI machine, slowed 400%
