RPM 2009


This month is Record Production Month. During the month of February, people all over the world will be recording their own albums.
From the official site:
• Ten songs or 35 minutes of recorded material, on a CD, mailed or hand-delivered by noon on March 1 (since March 1 is a Sunday, items mailed on March 1 will receive a March 2 postmark, which is acceptable). Make at least two copies, one to send to RPM HQ here:

RPM HQ
10 Vaughan Mall, Suite 1
Portsmouth, NH 03801
USA

...and then the second copy is for your regional listening party, if you plan to attend one. Listening party details will be announced soon!

• Recording can only be done in the month of February – no prerecorded songs.

• All material must be previously unreleased, and we encourage you to write the material during February too.

So, if you're so inclined, you should probably do this. I may post mine at the end of the month, but it's up in the air. Remember, it's ten songs OR 35 minutes, so you could do a bunch of really short things. Or you could just record some stories and not even bother with music (this is called spoken word). Really, it's whatever you want to do. You can sign up at the site.
