Beck's Record Club
Record Club sets out to record an album a day. They pick an album, play it and document it in the knowledge that they won't get a second shot. They say:
"There is no intention to 'add to' the original work or attempt to recreate the power of the original recording. Only to play music and document what happens."
which I think is a pretty upstanding idea. They're developing quite a back catalogue which is definitely worth having a flick through and all their videos are on vimeo. If you're thinking this sounds a little amateur then don't panic. They've got some old hands onboard to steady the ship like Nigel Godrich whose produced albums for Radiohead, Travis and Beck himself. A particular favourite of mine is Tom Tom Club-esque cover of The Velvet Undergounrd and Nico's Run Run Run...
