OK Computer Coming up.
i knew you’d have good taste
would you consider them post rock? I have a lot of post rock, but I find post rock usually more experimental.
btw, I have OK Computer, The Bends (and perhaps more) if you want, but I have a feeling you already have.
thanks for this forum, it was needed
Yeah, I have all the Radiohead stuff.
I would say this is one of their more experimental albums, though I’m not sure it’s quite experimental enough to be ‘post rock’.
Either way, it’s great music.
definitely
I remember I had many good times listening to this album (in the car visiting the colorodo ski resort comes to mind)
btw, can you tell me how you manage to post this stuff so quickly?
I’m currently uploading some Godspeed and Mum, and it’s taking an hour on yousendit
is there a way to compress?
Well, I post to my own server, which allows faster uploading than yousendit does. Plus, I rip all my stuff in OGG Q3 or 4 - which sounds like MP3 192kbps but is only 128 kbps, so about 25% smaller.
I wouldnt advise converting MP3 to Ogg. Not that it
s a big deal, but each time you re-encode, your quality diminishes. But if you need to do that, go for it. I doubt anyone here would care or notice.
Of course this is more experimental, Thom Yorke listened to Warp records exclusively during the recording of Kid A and Amnesiac… Very noticable in a lot of tracks.
Take Idioteque for an example of the experimental aspects of this record. It samples two tracks of 1970’s electronic music, some of the first ever written. One of them was Paul Lansky’s “mild und leise” which as far as I know was one of the first pieces ever created entirely by computer. And they turn that into one of the hardest rocking songs they have, and it uses practically no guitars.
And plus the lead guitarist uses an electronic replica of an ondes martenot on quite a few of the tracks…how cool is that
haha tru da JONNY iz fuckin wicked. Randomly he iz da house composer foh da BBC orchestra foh da next 2 or 3 yearz. I have sum stuff da he wrote, really fuckin weird, I can post it if u guyz want it
