the substars

I’ve traded copies of my RPM albums, Buildings and Real Time, with various other RPM Challenge participants. Since I feel like I should be writing more here, I’m going to briefly review profile the albums I’ve received. We’re not really giving out grades here, since everyone gets an A for finishing, naturally.

I should also point out that you can find all this music in its entirely on the RPM Challenge Jukebox.

Artist: Broken Promise Keeper

Album: The Avocado Age of Radio

So, this site has been so neglected to the point where even spambots aren’t commenting anymore, but I am excited nevertheless to announce that the substars will again compete in the RPM Challenge in February 2008.For those who haven’t been following along, the Real Time LP is the product of the 2007 RPM Challenge, which dares participants to record an album during the month of February. Last year was a blast–we highly recommend it–and hopefully this year will be similarly fruitful, and maybe even see us coming up with some music that you might find pleasant to listen to. So stay tuned!
