Disquiet Junto Project 0721: Well Weathered – Disquiet

Each Thursday in the Disquiet Junto music community, a new compositional challenge is set before the group’s members, who then have five days to record and upload a track in response to the project instructions.

Membership in the Junto is open: just join and participate. (A SoundCloud account is helpful but not required.) There’s no pressure to do every project. The Junto is weekly so that you know it’s there, every Thursday through Monday, when your time and interest align.

Tracks are added to the SoundCloud playlist for the duration of the project. Additional (non-SoundCloud) tracks also generally appear in the lllllll.co discussion thread.

Disquiet Junto Project 0721: Well Weathered
The Assignment: Play along with a storm

Step 1: On freesound.org, find a recording of a bad storm. Or use one of your own.

Step 2: Listen to the recording from Step 1.

Step 3: Select a section of the recording from Step 1, perhaps 3 to 5 minutes in length.

Step 4: Listen several times in a row to the section selected in Step 3. Get to know its sounds, and the overall shape of the recording.

Step 5: Record a track in which you play along with the storm.

Tasks Upon Completion:

Label: Include “disquiet0721” (no spaces/quotes) in the name of your track.

Upload: A person participating in the Disquiet Junto should post only one track per weekly project (SoundCloud account preferred but not required). If on occasion you feel inspired to post more than one track (whether to a single account or across multiple accounts), you should clarify which is the “main” rendition for consideration by fellow members and (if on SoundCloud) for inclusion in the SoundCloud playlist.

Share: Post your track and a description/explanation at https://llllllll.co/t/disquiet-junto-project-0721-well-weathered/

Discuss: Listen to and comment on the other tracks.

Additional Details:

Length: The length is up to you. How bad is the storm?

Deadline: Monday, October 27, 2025, 11:59pm (that is: just before midnight) wherever you are.
