New U2 “Window In The Skies” Video

Filed under: ,

I may be becoming soppy in my old age, but I do believe I count U2’s latest video for Window In The Skies as being somewhere up there in my list of their best video clips.

Go watch it. Tell me it doesn’t bring a smile to your face. So many quality arists paid tribute to!

Even your mother will love it.

(Yes, I like the song too. And yes, I’m aware it’s created a divide in the U2 community)

Thom Yorke Eraser Remixes

Thom just posted on Dead Air Space that he’s posting some recently commissioned remixes of The Eraser up on the album’s website. So far, Analyze and The Clock are up – they’re dark, brooding, intense reworkings and I do believe I’m a fan.

Get ‘em while they’re hot, because Thom suggests that they won’t be there for long:

They may start appearing soon. Gradually. Briefly.
Just a taste. And then gone.

Random track

Filed under: ,

OK, here’s today’s track. Featuring some Aphex-y skittering beats and a driving bassline. Again, done in Audiomulch, it samples Bloc Party (Positive Tension) and Hendrix (Freedom, Voodoo Child).

Audio clip: Adobe Flash Player (version 9 or above) is required to play this audio clip. Download the latest version here. You also need to have JavaScript enabled in your browser.

It’s a *very* rough mix, and a bit rambly, with a few mistakes. See what you think – comments always welcome.
