Filed under: Concerts and Tours , News , UK Radiohead 's Thom Yorke and Jonny Greenwood made a surprise appearance onstage tonight at Glastonbury festival. Crowds gathered at the remote Park Stage, as rumours swelled that either the Strokes or Radiohead would appear for the now customary "special guest" slot, which has in recent years played host to Klaxons , Franz Ferdinand and the Dead Weather . Organiser Michael Eavis introduced the pair, saying, "Welcome to [...]
Jonny Greenwood es, en mi opinión y junto a Thom Yorke , de los miembros más importantes de Radiohead y que sabe –y mucho- de música nadie puede negarlo. Ahora el guitarrista del grupo inglés, decidió hacer una lista de 10 videojuegos que, para él, tienen la mejor música de la industria gamer . Para presentar la lista, dejó una pequeña frase en el blog oficial de Radiohead, llamado Dead Air Space y listó las canciones en cuestión. Estos son los, para él juegos que mejores temas tienen: [...]
On today's Rock it Out! Blog episode, we ask the very debatable question: who is today's best guitarist? Is it based on technique? Familiar songs or riffs? Relevance? Genre of music? Experimentation? Who do you think is the best guitarist in this day and age.
I was sitting around earlier this weekend and asked myself a puzzling question. "Sami," I said. "When will you try that new Double Down Sandwich from KFC?" After nearly throwing up in my mouth, I moved on to the more puzzling question; who is today's best guitarist? Apparently, my question was answered twice over the weekend. Former Red Hot Chili Peppers guitarist John Frusciante was recently voted "Best Guitarist" of the last 30 years according to listeners of BBC 6 in the U.K. Rounding out the top five [...]
Some Book Links: Jonny Greenwood's new score. Patti Smith & Style Patti Smith & playwright/actor/writer Sam Shepard (via BabyGotBooks )
Filed under: News , UK Two years on from winning the Best Composer Awards at the Critics Choice Awards in the US and the Best Film Score gong at the Evening Standard Awards for his work on the soundtrack for the Oscar-winning movie 'There Will Be Blood,' Radiohead guitarist Jonny Greenwood 's latest score, 'Doghouse', has been debuted by the BBC Concert Orchestra at London's renowned Maida Vale studios. As reported on Spinner , the instrumental will form the basis for the score of a [...]
Jonny Greenwood has come a long way from being that lanky, flannel-clad boy who accidentally wrote the punkish "chu-chug chu-chug" guitar riff on "Creep," Radiohead's first hit and possibly biggest song to date. Since then, he's grown up and evolved into a world-class composer, having done the Iannis Xenakis and Krzysztof Penderecki-influenced film score for Paul Thomas Anderson's There Will Be Blood . Now, he's got another film score lined up for a film adaptation of the pop culture-influenced, coming-of-age novel Norwegian Wood by Japanese author Haruki Murakami. He recently debuted "Doghouse" (a piece from [...]
Though we like to think otherwise, the news doesn't stop during South by Southwest. Instead, everyone (aka bloggers, publicists, bands, etc.) just divert their attention for a week in favor of the endless supply of free music, alcohol, and beer koozies. In an effort to catch everyone up to speed, we took some time to put together a recap with bullets points on all of last week's headlines. So, now you can both brag about going to SXSW and pretend like you didn't miss anything (or just the latter if you weren't one of the lucky ones). The [...]
As we previously reported , Radiohead's Jonny Greenwood premiered his latest orchestral composition, "Doghouse," for an intimate crowd at Maida Vale Studios last month. The performance by the BBC Concert Orchestra was recorded for a later broadcast on Radio 3 , as well as a short Q&A with Greenwood and conductor Robert Ziegler in which they revealed that the piece will also be used as the score to a forthcoming film based on Haruki Murakami's novel Norwegian Wood . Stream the interview and premiere of Greenwood's new [...]
Seems like nowadays, a lot of musicians are getting in the film scoring or soundtrack filling business . But if you're Radiohead's Jonny Greenwood , your compositions are already tailor-made for movies . Last month, Greenwood, who is also the composer-in-residence with the BBC Concert Orchestra, debuted his newest creation, "Doghouse", at the BBC's Maida Vale Studios. In an 20-minute interview after the performance, attendee Adam Bowie noted that as Greenwood's "Popcorn Superhet Receiver" was the genesis for the score to There Will Be Blood , "Doghouse" will also [...]
Radiohead's Jonny Greenwood, the composer-in-residence with the BBC Concert Orchestra, unveiled the world premiere of his new composition "Doghouse" for an intimate crowd at the BBC's famous Maida Vale Studios last month. That's newsworthy enough, I say, but thanks to a couple online reviews from the lucky few in attendance, there's more… According to attendee Adam Bowie , Greenwood and conductor Robert Ziegler also had a 20-minute interview after the performance and—just as Greenwood's "Popcorn Superhet Receiver" inspired his lauded There Will Be Blood score —"Doghouse" will inform parts of [...]
This week the nominations for the 82nd Academy Awards were handed out in L.A. in advance of the March 7th award show. With ten nominations for Best Picture this year and all but locked up races for the Best Acting awards it was difficult to be too upset with all the nominations. Every year it seems the Academy does a fairly piss poor job of recognizing the music in movies, opting to nominate every ridiculously happy Disney tune over the darker entries in movies that are a little more adult oriented. Why this is I suppose we'll never know but [...]
The unlikely collaboration of über cool co-conspirator of Roxy Music and the musical hooligans of Groove Armada has prompted me to delve back into my music catalog to reach for "Country Life". The single has been on the Internets for about twelve days (which is two eternities in the blog world), but I had dismissed the track because I deemed it cheesy as a train-wreck waiting to happen. I regret my hasty judgment because this single has been etched in my head since listening to it this past Friday . I love how effortlessly the [...]
It seems like this November is a month of superstar collaborations. Them Crooked Vultures self-titled album was released. Rumors are swirling around about a Jimmy Page/Eric Clapton/Aerosmith supergroup. Kanye West and 30 Seconds to Mars became friends . What's next? Well, if you're Bryan Ferry, what's next is a massive collaboration with Radiohead guitarist Jonny Greenwood, Chili Peppers bassist Flea, and acclaimed producer/musican Nile Rodgers. According to Rolling Stone , the Roxy Music frontman has teamed up with the aforementioned cast of characters for the followup to 2007's [...]
Bryan Ferry , el legendario líder de Roxy Music , anunció que está trabajando en un nuevo disco solista que contará con la participación del guitarrista de Radiohead , Jonny Greenwood, y el bajista de Red Hot Chili Peppers , Flea. Asimismo, Ferry confirmó que el productor del álbum será nada menos que Nile Rodgers, uno de los fundadores de Chic . La salida del álbum está programada para el verano europeo del 2010. Como aperitivo al disco, Ferry lanzará un single conjunto con DJ Hell [...]
Allora, ricapitoliamo. Flea suona con Thom Yorke . Sì. Anche Greenwood? Sì, ma solo nei Radiohead . Quindi Flea non suona con Greenwood! Sì. Come sì? Sì, e tutti e due suonano con Brian Ferry . Quello dei Roxy Music ? Proprio lui. Dall'ultimo disco di Brian Ferry (quinto nella classifica inglese) sono passati due anni e, l'ex (?) leader dei Roxy Music è al lavoro sul successore di "Dylanesque". L'album è previsto per l'estate del prossimo hanno, ma stanno già trapelando indiscrezioni. La più interessante riguarda le collaborazioni previste. Saranno [...]
Use a pirate dictionary. LAUNCH Exclusive Interview (Syndicated) @ Yahoo! Video My latest obsession has been researching lawsuits of music piracy, which I'll be posting about regularly in the near future. For now I thought I'd put up a related video on the subject-starring two Radioheaders. By the way...does the opposition think it an insult to call us pirates? We relish pirate mythology (yo-ho-ho)!
Και ναι κυρίες και κύριοι, η στήλη που εγκαινιάσαμε πέρυσι τέτοια μέρα προκειμένου να ευχηθούμε «χρόνια πολλά» στην Αυτού Πολυμουσικότητα τον Jonathan Richard Guy Greenwood, και μας άρεσε τόσο που έμεινε, έκλεισε αισίως έναν ολόκληρο χρόνο και ήρθε η σειρά της να τής πούμε «χρόνια πολλά»! Από την πάνω δεξιά γωνίτσα του some beans ευχηθήκαμε στη διάρκεια αυτού του έτους σε ένα σωρό κόσμο, αν και ομολογουμένως για ορισμένες περιόδους την αφήσαμε έρμη και ανενημέρωτη. Υποσχόμαστε τακτική ανανέωση στο δεύτερο χρόνο της, καθώς θα παρελάσουν απ'αυτήν όσοι δεν «χώρεσαν» στον πρώτο γύρο - και ήταν πολλοί (στις 4 [...]

This digital 123 by Radiohead frontman Thom Yorke sounds of a piece with much of his band's post-Y2K work: funky basslines, time-signature-shifting glitch-hop backbeats, and Yorke's sweet, overdubbed crooning. If the work he releases under his own name often seems to borrow from his band's sonic palette, it should come as no surprise to die-hards: According to a statement Yorke posted to the band's official website, "'FeelingPulledApartbyHorses' is written & played by Jonny [Greenwood, Radiohead guitarist/multi-instrumentalis t] and I and is a radical rework of an old tune that's been kicking around without a home [...]
