Disquiet Junto is a weekly musical challenge posed by Marc Weidenbaum of the Disquiet website. Hundreds of composers and sound enthusiasts have participated in this project, which is hosted on the SoundCloud platform. The 68th Junto, lasting from April 18th to the 22nd, 2013, was titled “deriv.deriv.cc“. The challenge was to remix three tracks from the first release on the Derivative Netlabel, “The Conjuncts“, by C. Reider. Here are some of the instructions given to the artists by Weidenbaum:

“This is a shared-sample project. Create a single new piece of music by employing the selected material (see below) of each the following three tracks. All three were initially released on the new netlabel deriv.cc, and were posted to the Internet with a Creative Commons license encouraging derivative reworking. In fact, the impetus for the label, which was founded by C. Reider, was to draw attention to the intrinsic benefits of allowing for derivative works. Like deriv.cc, this project — one in an ongoing series of netlabel remixes undertaken by the Disquiet Junto — is intended to address the unfortunate popularity of “ND” (i.e., “no derivatives”) licenses among netlabels. Please only use the following material in your piece; you can transform in any way you choose, but do not introduce any new source material:
1: The final 20 seconds of “The Find Beauty, Even in the Mundane”:
2: The first 20 seconds of “Immaterial Girl”:
3: The portion of “Libertarian Entertainment Automaton” that runs from 1:10 to 1:30
Per the spirit of a Creative Commons license allowing derivative work, set your track in a manner that allows for attributed, commerce-free remixing (i.e., a Creative Commons license permitting non-commercial sharing with attribution).”

Upon the arrival of the deadline for the project, 37 artists had chosen to engage the challenge to remix the chosen 60 seconds of “The Conjuncts“. All completed remixes are presented here in a single downloadable package.

Cover art is adapted from the original painting by Anna Guseva.

Artist statement:

“It was really fun putting the tracks together. Somehow, not creating the music or sounds myself was really liberating. And yet, I think I came up with stuff that sounds like just the kind of stuff I would do. It also got me thinking about my own releases. I’ve never really paid much attention to the licenses–I just left it up to the labels. Now I want to make sure it all goes out without ND. D is fun.”

This one remixes three artists from the Nowaki Netlabel, originally made as part of the 39th Disquiet Junto project titled “Netlabel Derivations”. Visit Nowaki Netlabel to download each of these albums, they don’t allow deep linking, so I can’t link directly to the albums.

  • “Irise” from Summit by Barascud
  • “Sumatra” from Archipel by André D / Christophe Meulien
  • “She Likes to Look at the Sky” from No Love Please by Kluge

Nowaki also has released a compilation album of all of the remixes from the 39th Disquiet Junto, check it out.


– Immaterial Girl


– Second Nothing

  • “number none v.01r” from selected dubs, vol. 1 by Nofi (R.I.P. Jeffrey Melton. I planned this release in secret, and looked forward to surprising the artists whose work is used as source material. Jeffrey never got to hear this remix.)

– Libertarian Entertainment Automaton


– Juggalo Bear Fap


This track was originally recorded for Disquiet Junto project 28 “Netlabel Net”, in which participants remixed tracks from Xesús Valle’s great 2012 album “Gently Annoying”.
