Happy Monday! Kick off your day (aside from you, Dr Conrad Murray, soz!) with the following new music streams, as hand-picked by BitCandy.
Radiohead - TKOL RMX 1234567
On October 11th, Radiohead will release 'TKOL RMX 1234567', a two-CD compilation album set to feature a bunch of shit-hot producers remixing tracks from the 'The King of Limbs.'
Radiohead front man, Thom Yorke, recently said of the remixes: "I was really curious to see how the people I was listening to so much would use what we gave them. I didn't just want floor fillers and all that shit, I just wanted to see how the songs could really branch out and mutate. I love that there is such a culture of remixing at the moment, all this flow of ideas. It may come outta the club scene but to me there is a lot more to it than that. I think it appeals to us as a band at the moment that ideas and versions are not so fixed and set in stone, it feels kind of healthy for music."
Rustie - Glass Swords
Glasgow-producer and Warp-records signed Rustie will release his debut LP, 'Glass Swords' on October 10th. The abrasive electronica record attacks from all directions with its razor-sharp synths, low-slung bass and 8-bit quirk. Note: not an album for those with weak hearts.
Stream 'Glass Swords' over at The Guardian, now.
Future Islands - On the Water
Baltimore trio, Future Islands, release their third LP, 'On The Water,' October 11th. The album is a darn romantic statement of sound, as front man Samuel T. Herring's deep croons blissfully kick back atop a pillow of lush synth ambiance. Dreamy!
