![[Indie] 8in8 – Nighty Night](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/3413831_lg.jpg)
When you involve Amanda Palmer in a discussion, don't expect her to sit at the back quietly. Coming up with the question: 'how quickly could an artist record an album?', she set to work. Getting husband Neil Gaiman , Ben Folds and Damian Kulash (of OK Go! ) together to form 8in8, they recorded 6 tracks in 12 hours, working chaotically into the small hours. Now the finished album, 'Nighty Night' has been released to help raise funds for Berklee City Music Network . Highlight track is 'One Tiny Thing', a lo-fi ballad [...]

But my love for the medium of bloggin' supersedes my sense of justice....Plus, can you think of a better time for a party? LINK PARTY! Let's kick it off with a Cat Power bootleg courtesy of Captains Dead, whose also got a few Leonard Cohen boots as well. Fabolous' new mixtape, The Soul Tape, is pretty darn good. Fab has always been one of those just-bubbling-under rappers [...]

Reunindo Ben Folds , Amanda Palmer , Damian Kulash (vocalista do Ok Go ) e o escritor Neil Gaiman (marido de Palmer), o projeto 8in8 previa a gravação de 8 músicas em 8 horas.

8In8, comprised of Amanda Palmer, her husband Neil Gaimon, Ben Folds and OK Go's Damian Kulash, is "tomorrow's supergroup today." The foursome got together to write and record eight songs in eight hours. You can buy six of those songs as a record for the low, low price of $1. How great would it have been to watch the live stream of this event? Too bad it's not available on YouTube, or at least a highlight reel.
