Disquiet Junto Project 0697: First Third
The Assignment: Record the first third of a trio.

Please note: While this project is the start of a three-part sequence that will unfold over the course of three consecutive weeks, you can participate in any or all three of those parts. 

Step 1: This week’s Junto project is the first in a sequence intended to encourage and reward collaboration. You will be recording something with the understanding that it will remain unfinished for the time being. Your part will be done, but more will happen. Read on.

Step 2: The plan is for you to record a short and original piece of music using any instrumentation of your choice. Conceive the piece as something that leaves room for something else — other instruments, other people — to join in. (Keep in mind that your piece resulting from this week’s project will be panned to the left in the second and third weeks of this sequence.)

Step 3: Record a short piece of music, roughly two to three minutes in length, as described in Step 2. 

Step 4: This is important: be sure to make your track downloadable because it may be used by someone else in the next Disquiet Junto project, and the one after that.

Deadline: Monday, May 12, 2025, 11:59pm (that is: just before midnight) wherever you are.

Dropped his .wav file into Granulator 3 in Ableton 12 then played some notes into the track while listening to the original track. Notes were an octave lower than original track and panned to the right.

A groove in Dm @ 104 bpm played on a mahogany guild parlour guitar with a figure overdubbed. A foundation on which to ground your energy for the long struggle ahead.

Solo ronroco, 2 microphones, a great sounding room, some convolution reverb added.

This is  a simple idea I've been practising today, recorded Thursday 8th may 2025 at noon, first and only take.

Ronroco Lulaby (disquiet0697)

The strangest things happen when walking down the stairs at Bolsover Castle in Derbyshire, UK ... and all the sounds you hear here are from that odd little trip downwards ... see the video at https://youtu.be/TH2gczMinQ8

Thanks to the little kid who provided the vocal snippet! 🙏

So, this is the first third of a trio for the Disquiet Junto ... It's deliberately incomplete - simply a beat track ... Want to add another layer? What does it need to your ear? Check out the Disquiet brief for the next two weeks ... ❤️ Download this audio and have a play! 🎶🎡
