Disquiet Junto Project 0721: Well Weathered
Dear Members of the Disquiet Junto,
Hello from Long Island, where I am visiting to attend to my mom, who took a bit of a spill. Maybe I’ll get into the city? Hard to say. I can be hopeful. Meanwhile as the weather seasonally turns, for this project we turn to the weather.
And that covers it. Thanks, as always, for your generosity with your time, creativity, and curiosity.
Best,
Marc Weidenbaum

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.
