After releasing three original tracks, Chark Mu has decided to focus his attention on reinterpreting some more well known works with his own chilled out flavour. His first remix was Coldplay's "Viva La Vida", available here. He has just created his second; Radiohead's "Reckoner."
Unlike many hundreds of other remixes entered in Radiohead's contest, Chark Mu's does not try to be too clever, and retains the laid-back vibe of the original while still enlarging the backing instrumental with keys that melt into gentle synths and a swirling ambience.
Kid 17 is nothing new, but if you haven't heard of it you should definitely try it out: play certain Radiohead songs from two sources (ie iTunes and WMP) at the same time with a 17 second gap, and when they overlap they sound pretty crazy.
Tried and tested songs from Kid A are: Everything in its Right Place Idioteque How to Disappear Completely The National Anthem Kid A (The gap varies slightly on some of them, a second or half second longer/shorter, you might have to experiment a little bit to get them in sync)
From In Rainbows, try the 17 second gap on 15 Step and Videotape.
Also, a video for House of Cards has just been released, apparently it was made without cameras or lights, only lasers.
