Ten Pound Soundclash

10-pound-soundclash

The £10 soundclash. The most fun you can have with £10!

What you need:
• Two to four players, each with ten pounds (or equivalent in your currency).
• Record shop with a good bargain basement (eg. 50p per record or less).
• Venue (eg. someone’s house) with a decent soundsystem.

Players spend their £10 budget on the biggest tunes they can find in the bargain basement, keeping the selection secret from the other players. Back at the venue, each player spins one tune per round, then all players vote on the biggest selection. As well as the tune, other elements may influence the vote, including record condition, cover artwork, etc. If the tune is on a Telstar compilation that’s going to knock off some points.
