Disquiet Junto Project 0694: 5/4ify
Dear Members of the Disquiet Junto,
I hope this note finds you all well. Not much to report. Just finding my way, and in the process mapping out the upcoming projects. The 700th consecutive weekly Disquiet Junto project is coming up, in 6 weeks, and in the meanwhile we’re exploring 5/4 time this week.
Thanks, as always, for your generosity with your time, creativity, and curiosity.
Best from San Francisco,
Marc Weidenbaum

Disquiet Junto Project 0694: 5/4ify
The Assignment: Add a beat to a pre-existing piece of music.
There is just one step to this project: Take a pre-existing piece of music that is in 4/4 — either your own or something in the public domain — and add a beat to each measure, transforming it into 5/4.
Tasks Upon Completion:
Label: Include “disquiet0694” (no spaces/quotes) in the name of your track.
Upload: Post your track to a public account (SoundCloud preferred but by no means required). It’s best to focus on one track, but if you post more than one, clarify which is the “main” rendition.
Share: Post your track and a description/explanation at https://llllllll.co/t/disquiet-junto-0694-5-4ify/
Discuss: Listen to and comment on the other tracks.
Additional Details:
Length: The length is up to you. Maybe 25% longer than usual?
Deadline: Monday, April 21, 2024, 11:59pm (that is: just before midnight) wherever you are.

Newsletter: https://juntoletter.disquiet.com/
License: It’s preferred (but not required) to set your track as downloadable and allowing for attributed remixing (i.e., an attribution Creative Commons license).
