There are over twenty fifty-second tracks from the upcoming “50/50” compilation featured in this week’s episode. We started collecting these short audio collages in 2009, on the occasion of Some Assembly Required’s Tenth Anniversary, and with a little help from mnartists.org, plan to release a limited edition CD in the very near future. I’m really excited about the quality of the tracks we received. Stay tuned for more information about the 50/50 collection, and in the meantime, check out a generous sneak preview in this week’s episode (#254) HERE.
