fradleybox's Radiohead Live 1992-1996 Mix!



Crossposted from Deadlyboars:
So, I just finished this live Radiohead mix I've been working on for a very long time. Almost two years, in fact. Here's some background:

There will be four mixes highlighting different periods in Radiohead's live performances over the course of their career. Radiohead are somewhat unique in that most songs tend to evolve constantly and slowly the more they are played, some more drastically than others. As a result, some songs will appear more than once over the course of the mixes because they are performed in such vastly different ways over the years. Each mix is set up to be mock-concert length and should feel sort of like any given show in the time period (at which they play a truly absurd number of awesome b-sides and new songs, of course).

Just in time for the 90's to be retro, this first mix covers 1992-1996 (with Talk Show Host wrangled in; it wasn't debuted live until early 1997 but there were good reasons to include it here). 29 songs, 2 hours. I did my best not to choose specific performances lots of folks may have already heard (for example, Lift performed at Pinkpop in 1996 does not appear on this mix, instead, Lift performed on JBTV will appear), though this was not always possible. Early shows were never this long, but I decided to go by current show length as a guideline. I also have only used the dates as a cutoff for what songs to include; I allowed myself to use performances of those songs from later shows, which I did in some cases where I do not plan to feature the songs again in a later mix. Some of these recordings are almost two decades old, and others are from shows as recent as 2006.

The mix is available as both a lossless (flac) and mp3 (V0) download. Additionally, I have bundled the lossless version with a program that will play flac files; foobar2000 for windows users and vlc for mac users, just in case you are new to the format. The mp3s sound great, but of course, I suggest you get the flacs. Only slight remastering was performed on most tracks, and nearly one-fourth of the tracks are taken from audience recordings. The date and venue for each track is part of the file name, in case anyone decides they want to find the bootleg that a song came from.

In sum, this is a must-have for Radiohead fans and perhaps a good thorough exposure to the band's early work for anyone who only knows the later albums. At the very least, it's something to listen to until the new album comes out!

Please enjoy with my best regards, and please, for the love of all that's holy, leave comments!

2010 Communal Mix: Gambling With Souls!



This year has been a veritable roller-coaster ride of emotion on the RHMB, not that I would know since I'm rarely given over to sentiment or "feelings." Personal relationships can be chaotic, beast-like things, better left to the more swarthy races. It gets so confusing you never know just whom is doing what to whomever! One thing is for sure though, people do have opinions about music! What better way to get all these thinkings about musics out in the open where they can be debated, bitterly, leading to the shredding of friendships, than on a somewhat democratic list or "mix" of sorts? Also, as you can plainly make out from the picture, this path may also lead to waywardness and spotty morality ---> OR EVEN COMMUNISM.

Try this: track #, artist, title, (boardie who picked it):
1. Blank Dogs - Goes By (~Harri)
2. Sl**** B***s - Tell 'Em (Buck Sexington)
3. Antoine Dodson - Bed Intruder Song! (Okely)
4. Boy Eats Drum Machine - ABQ (Nymphadoratonks)
5. Oneohtrix Point Never - Stress Waves (rich)
6. Sex Bob-omb - Threshold (lindy lou who)
7. Säkert! - Dansa, fastän (pocki)
8. The Walkmen - Angela Surf City (Sarah Juice)
9. Electric President - Mr. Gone (Clarabelle)
10. Dum Dum Girls - Jail La La (hamdy)
11. Kitchen's Floor - Twenty-Two (witches hat)
12. Gonjasufi - Holidays (revilo)
13. Kurt Vile - Invisibility: Nonexistent (swan swan hum)
14. Small Black - Hydra (fradleybox)
15. Tunng - Hustle (The Grolsch)
16. Typhoon - Starting Over (Bad Habits) (strack)
17. The Bird And The Bee - Maneater (Romi & Wesley)
18. Tap Tap - Codeine (Completely Unhinged)
19. L** S********* - D*nce Yrs*lf Cl**n (really dizzy)
20. Beach House - Lover Of Mine (Miss Modular)

Thanks for submitting the tracks, folks! *MOST* of the songs are from 2010... most of them. Listening party @ 7PM EST this Friday but there might also be a mid-thursday one, around 1PM EST (and I should have a streamable version up by then).

~Harri

P.S. whoever gave me the Glenn Richards track I'm sorry. I didn't write down your name so I just left it off the mix. So in honor of this person, please reader, listen to Barfly Prometheus by Glenn Richards!
