thom yorke | tomorrow’s modern boxes lp

Thom Yorke is known to surprise as much as he is known for pushing the boundaries of what a song can be. On Friday, September 26th he did the unexpected, he dropped the Tomorrow’s Modern Boxes album! This is monster! And for Radiohead fans, diehard and casual alike, the joy is evident and immediate. And it isn’t just the 8-track release that is pure joie de vivre. It is the method of madness that is groundbreaking! Mr. Yorke has chosen to disseminate the album to the masses through “the front door” in a way that is pretty innovative and totes badass too.

Don’t let the black and white photo fool you Atoms For Peace is a polychromatic wonderburst of kaleidoscopic proportions.

When it comes to modern contemporary pop music Thom Yorke has the Midas touch. Or so it seems. Mr. Yorke has a penchant for dance (the video for Lotus Flower anyone?. The Flea/Yorke project known as Atoms For Peace is anything but another permutation of Radiohead, it stretches and shape-shifts into ever interesting and enjoyable plateaus …well, let me shut-up and just let your ears & eyes enjoy the music. If you haven’t known the pleasure, you can cop the Atoms For Peace’s album AMOK here. Peace. Continue reading “atoms for peace // ingenue”

atoms for peace // default

Atoms For Peace is indeed playing peek-a-boo with our feelings, and we love it.

Since 2009 Thom Yorke (Radiohead) has been baiting us, perhaps not intentionally but nonetheless we’re baited. Atoms For Peace to date has only revealed two songs, “Default” and “Judge Jury And Executioner,” there are rumors of war (in the studio) of a February 2013 full-length album ‘Amok’ of which you can pre-order via iTunes. Until them check out the Dazed Digital Mixtape by none other than our favorite conjurer of radiantly elliptic music Mr. T. Yorke. Peace. Continue reading “atoms for peace // default”

Radiohead – TKOL RMX 1234567


I get real touchy when folks try to mess with the music of my favorite band. So, I was pleasantly surprised to hear the Radiohead TKOL 1234567 Remix, and I actually love it (well, most of it). Here’s the thing though, this retooling of Radiohead’s music has more highlights than lowlights because it was reworked by DJs who I admire and/or listen to (and who know what the hell their doing). Maybe that’s why it turned out so well. Who knows? Right out the gate the album opens with a stunner; with Caribou laying down hypnotic beats and a tingling piano/harp thingy on “Little By Little”. From across the pond we have UK supa’ producer Lone turning “Feral” inside out and sprinkling space dust on the remains. Then there is Pearson Sound/Ramadanman creating something salacious and utterly wicked with his take on “Morning Mr Magpie”. I also have to give an honorable mention to Four Tet‘s lush mutant clone of “Separator”, which I can’t seem to stop listening to. All in all there are no duds here, but like most LPs you like what you like. Also, you can preview the entire album at Radiohead‘s webpage.

And make sure you check out Thom Yorke spinning at the Boiler Room, this was a live feed for the October 3rd premiere of Radiohead’s TKOL RMX 1234567 release.
