Album-a-Day
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Album-a-Day is a project run by Tom Murphy VII, 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.
Murphy collects the completed albums on his web page, and has accumulated more than 300 to date.
