The RPM Challenge - Marvin Berry and the Starlighters

About

Description:

Basically, this music is completely improvised. There is a theme about a certain movie from the eighties dealing with time travel that we have in mind, but by and large- this album is being recorded live to a two track CD burner in a basement- enjoy the low-fi vibes. We have changed the name from the original idea (The Flux Capacitors) due to the fact that we discovered a couple of bands with the same name already in existence. We are now MARVIN BERRY AND THE STARLIGHTERS.
