Radiohead+Zion-I+Too Short

December 7, 2007 | 3 Comments

remix radiohead

Yes you did read right. It is amazing how many people love the new Radiohead album, In Rainbows (including me). Amplive from Zion-I is no different. He loves it so much that he creating a remix album called Rainydayz Remixes. This 8-track record will feature various collaborations including none other than Too Short!

This remix album will be released in early Janurary and it will be free. However, there is a litte catch according to Pitchfork. You will need your email receipt from In Rainbows store to get the remix record.

On January 10, Amplive will release the online-only album for free as a .zip file with 320 kbps mp3s and high-resolution artwork, but to get your digital hands on it, there’s a bit of a catch. You need to forward any email from Radiohead’s W.A.S.T.E. online store (like but not at all limited to the ones confirming the purchase of In Rainbows) to amplive@onesevensevensix.com. It’s fairly simple, but a little tricky, especially considering that the In Rainbows download option ends December 10. Better hop on the free train while you still can, folks! -Pitchfork Media

I love this idea and I think this is the future of music marketing. So go grab In Rainbows, before you have to get it the old-fashion way (which is not that bad either).

Check out this real cool fan video to the song “All I Need” from In Rainbows. It is a  mashup with the film Microcosmos
