Another episode of Overcast by Overman (Zarathustra Studios)

"This week I discuss the latest happenings in the independent artist revolution / music industry implosion (and why we should care), and review a number of new web destinations of interest to machinima makers. Recorded in an odd location this week, my apologies for less than the usual sound quality, as I had no means to pad the room to control reverb.

Thank you for listening! Your feedback is the sustenance of this show, so please bring it on!
