Disquiet Junto Project 0656: Soothing Sounds II RMX
Dear Members of the Disquiet Junto,
I have no idea where the summer has gone, or at least is going. I thought we’d make it to Scotland, and then stuff kept piling up, and now it’s almost August. Somewhere along the way I caught and recuperated from Covid, and now I’m playing catch-up. No matter, as the 656th Disquiet Junto project is ready to go!
Please note: If you participated in last week’s project (the “soothing sounds for babies” one) and are cool with your track being remixed, please set it as downloadable, and alter the license to allow creative reuse. Because that is the basis for this week’s project.
And that covers it. Thanks, as always, for your generosity with your time, creativity, and curiosity.
Best from San Francisco,

Disquiet Junto Project 0656: Soothing Sounds II RMX
The Assignment: Make music for babies’ parents.
Last week’s project involved making soothing sounds for babies. This week the plan is to transform those sounds into something for parents (where Creative Commons licenses or other agreements allow).
Step 1: Listen through and locate a track from project 0655 that (a) is something you’d like to rework and (b) is available for reworking. If it doesn’t have an evident Creative Commons license allowing for re-use, consider contacting the musician for permission. Or just find another track. You’ll find them at disquiet.com/0655 and in the llllllll.co thread.
Step 2: Take the piece of music from Step 1 that was intended as soothing sounds for babies and transform it into something intended as Soothing Sounds for Parents. (Yes, yes, parents might certainly enjoy the original material, but please push it beyond the bassinet.)
Tasks Upon Completion:
Label: Include “disquiet0656” (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-project-0656-soothing-sounds-ii-rmx/
Discuss: Listen to and comment on the other tracks.
Additional Details:
Length: The length is up to you.
Deadline: Monday, July 29, 2024, 11:59pm (that is: just before midnight) wherever you are.
About: https://disquiet.com/junto/
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).
