Album-a-Day
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Album-a-Day is a project run by Tom 7, as part of his Crap Art movement, that was founded in 2001. Musicians must write either 20 minutes of music or 30 total songs within a 24 hour period, taking no ideas from before that period, and not allowing any re-writes of any music once recorded. It is a project set up to reward creativity and quick thinking, instead of the usual musical process of rewrites and polishing.
When the project is over, the songs are uploaded to the internet, the artists reports to Tom 7, and he puts it up on the main Album-a-Day page.
So far there are over 300 Albums-a-day.
