No Surprises
We bring you an extremely ambient take on the Radiohead classic to finish the album. Fair warning: you...might not sleep tonight if you listen with headphones or good speakers/monitors (which, of course, is best). [more inside]
The Tourist
From the beginning to the end; after this track we have only one track left in this absurd amalgam of noise before the whole of OK, Computer? is finished. I hope you've enjoyed this bizarre ride, which has destroyed my voice and changed forever the way I sing, seen the birth of at least one new Gyrophonic instrument, and helped me really develop my comfort and style as a producer and arranger. [more inside]
Airbag
Since everybody's in the midst of posting their completed tracks for this year's album challenge, I thought what better time than to post another track just finished for last years? This track and its accompanying video features the public debut of our newest homebrewed weapon of sonic destruction: The Macroharp. [more inside]
Climbing Up the Walls
Only three tracks left until we've finally finished the full album of OK Computer. The idea here is pretty simple--since we've made basically every other track super creepy, it was time to make the creepiest track on the album something completely different. Presenting rock and/or roll. [more inside]
Fitter Happier
The Lonely Karmic Cop
Cover of Radiohead's "Karma Police" for the major/minor challenge. [more inside]
Karma Police
Last minute entry. This was supposed to be, and will eventually be, an a capella/choral twofer with Fitter Happier, but I wasn't able to finish it in time. [more inside]
ian curtis' bathroom surprise
Oh shit. I lost the power supply to the br-532 in the move, so to be econimical i got a br-800 which arrived this week.. i recorded all this within the last 2 hours and about a half hour ago realized i had no idea how to get it off the damn thing. turns out it was the same way as the 532 but to make a short story short used the mixing on the 800 and um.. here we go.. straight off the br-800.. also played bass for the first time in 500 years
Fitter, Happier, World Famous
Like all supergroups, the OK LA MeFi Action Band sometimes pares itself down to a solo performer and producer arrangement. Nobody leaves the room, you understand, but everyone takes a drink and everyone but me holds their breath. [more inside]
Let Down
Lofi Computer stumbles on.
Exit Music (for a Film)
Another track from Lofi Computer. [more inside]
Karma Police
Well, here it is. I just couldn't pull off any of the ideas I had to make my cover unique, but I really didn't want to fail the challenge completely. So here's my crappy, iPad recorded version of the tune. [more inside]
Karma Police
Here there be sludge. [more inside]
Electioneering
Not my favourite Radiohead tune, I'll tell you that much. [more inside]
Paranoid Android
The epic second track off the Roddy's O-Face record. It's pretty hefty compared to the rest of the songs, so make sure you can handle a solid minute and forty five seconds. [more inside]
Climbing Up the Walls
My submission, just under the wire. Improvised into my phone just now, while fighting dizzy spells and having just submitted to a biopsy procedure. This is also my first Mefi Music submission.
Fitting.
Fitting.
Airbag
My contribution for the July challenge. Just a few pianos and vocals. Thanks JaiMahodara for singing. [more inside]
Airbag
Sweet, I tracked down the opening track off Lofi Computer. [more inside]
No Surprises
I really have no explanation for what I was thinking on this.
Polyethylene [parts 1 & 2]
A cover of a B-Side from Radiohead's OK Computer. [more inside]
Subterranean Homesick Dylan
It's well known that Radiohead went to Bob Dylan for inspiration on the title of Subterranean Homesick Alien; it's less well known that they actually lifted the song structure and lyrics themselves from this rare demo recording. [more inside]
Fitter Happier ((Russian language version))
My assigned tune from OK Computer. For mouth bow and Russian vocal. Video here.
Subterranean Homesick Alien
Version # 7248 of this song. My entry into the OK Computer MeFi Challenge. [more inside]
Airbag(ft The Dev Cave)
My cover of Radiohead's Airbag for the July 2012 MeFi Music Challenge. [more inside]
(half) lucky
As sang by the paranoid android. Right before running out of battery.
SubHoAl
MeFi Music Challenge July 2012 cover of "Subterranean Homesick Alien" off of Radiohead's OK Computer. [more inside]
Electioneering
After many failed attempts, here is my contribution to the project. [more inside]
Exit Music (Again?)
It's time to come clean... [more inside]
Electioneering
If any of our previous posts for this challenge have been successfully creepy, then hopefully, this will be the stuff of nightmares... [more inside]
Let Down
Time for a short break from the creepy. Turns out, all that needed changing was one word, and this was actually a bit of Mississippi Delta Blues in disguise--mostly because nobody in Mississippi has ever heard of the word "drivel." Sit back on your front porch with a cool glass of lemonade for this one. [more inside]
Airbag
I learned how the play the song the proper way, but then I threw it all out the window for... whatever this is. [more inside]
Lucky
From sort of creepy to really creepy. From cover/arrangement/orchestration to abstraction. This is not your Major's Lucky. [more inside]
Paranoid Android
My attempt at the Bohemian Rhapsody of my generation. [more inside]
Exit Music (for a Film)
It's probably a different film now (could still be Romeo & Juliet, but they might have to use chainsaws now). Headphones are best, for maximum crunchification. [more inside]
KARMA
take a trip with me... inside your mind [more inside]
Exit Music
Not a part of the Monthly Challenge, but the first song I recorded on my tenor ukulele. [more inside]
Subterranean Homesick Alien
In the six months they were together, Roddy's O-Face went through three bassists, the last of whom insisted on being called "The Colonel" at all times. This was a song about the town they were all going to high school in. [more inside]
Karma Police
Here's another Roddy's O-Face track off their Lofi Computer album! If I remember right, Ned wrote this one, and it's about his ex-girlfriend's cop dad and the time he drew a magic marker Hitler stache on her at a party when she passed out, or something like that. [more inside]
Paranoid Android
My allotted song for the July Metafilter Music Radiohead Extravaganza. [more inside]
No Surprises
As recorded in Tom's mom's garage by the infamously unfamous punk ingenues Roddy's O-Face. From their first and only album, Lofi Computer. [more inside]
Exit Music (For a Campfire)
So, y'all know that Thom Yorke has a ridiculous power and range to his singing right? Well I don't. [more inside]
Subterranean Homesick Alien
Radiohead's Subterranean Homesick Alien, the mariachi cover. [more inside]
Climbing up the Walls
It's always best when the light is off. [more inside]
