BEYOND THE GOLDMINE STANDARD An exhibition of LPs and 12" Singles reworked by artists. Join us for a special Super Saturday instore at RPM Music LP Sale and Publication Launch TODAY 9:30-19:00 RPM Music 4 Old George Yard, NE1 1EZ Newcastle upon Tyne https://www.facebook.com/events/924485260905137/ Every Monday for the last six weeks a new batch of artist re-worked LPs have been released in RPM Music, Newcastle as part of Beyond the Goldmine Standard. Involving 59 artists and totalling a collection of 67 records, the walls and shelves of RPM Music are now brimming with an ecclectic selection of these re-imagined albums. Whilst we might recognise certain symbolic, personal and cultural value in the presence of writing or other visible interventions on the surface of record covers, another register of value, the Goldmine Standard, sees such 'residue' as marring or detrimental to a record's corresponding worth. Beyond the Goldmine Standard deems differently, and has been an invitation to think beyond such regimented classification. In the spirit of Beyond the Goldmine Standard RPM Music will be celebrating second-hand records throughout the day with drinks, nibbles and exclusive discounts on second hand vinyl from 9.30am. From 5pm a large selection of the artist re-worked LPs will be for sale at a fixed price of £50 alongside the launch of a very limited 12" x 12" publication cataloguing the project. As well as the last chance to see all the records and maybe purchase one for yourself,  there will be a special performance by artist Nicola Singh of her response to Prince and The Revolution, Around the World in a Day.
