$12, 12 hours, 12 musicians

I'm sure you've all heard about the 48 Hour Film Fest and a few of you may have heard of 24 House Comic Day, but I'm pretty sure not to many have heard of the inaugural Crate Digger Deathmatch, a 12 hour contest that challenges contestants to spend $12 on supplies and produce an album in half a day.




I love this kinda creative pressure cooker experimentation. The results aren't always stellar, but they're always fun. You can read all about one contestant's experience here and check out the tune-age here.
