| Lenta, 2012-01-30, Две песни Radiohead переделают в классическую симфонию | ||
 adio/ -->Американский композитор Стив Райх планирует создать симфонию, в основу которой будут положены два трека группы Radiohead, сообщает NME.За основу будут взяты песни "Everything in Its Right Place" (из альбома 2000 года "Kid A") и "Jigsaw Falling into Place" (с пластинки 2007 года "In Rainbows"). Работа Райха получит название "Radio Rewrite". В первые она будет представлена публике во время концерта, который состоится 5 марта 2013 года. В исполнении "Radio Rewrite" примут участие 13 музыкантов коллектива London Sinfonietta. Представитель London Sinfonietta заявил, что Райх не просто подготовит каверы на песни Radiohead, а напишет вполне самостоятельное произведение. Вышеупомянутые композиции станут для него всего лишь отправными точками. Последней на сегодняшний день студийной пластинкой Radiohead является альбом "The King of Limbs". Эта работа поступила в продажу в цифровом формате в середине февраля 2011 года. Причем группа анонсировала альбом всего за несколько дней до релиза. Позже "The King of Limbs" был издан на физических носителях.

| NME, 2012-01-29, Two Radiohead tracks set to be reworked into classical symphonies Radiohead Tickets | ||
 Two tracks from Radiohead's back catalogue are to be reworked into classical compositions. Steve Reich, the world renowned minimalist composer, has announced that he will be reworking 'Everything In Its Right Prize' from the band's 'Kid A' album, and 'Jigsaw Falling Into Place' from 'In Rainbows' as part of a piece called 'Radio Rewrite'. 'Radio Rewrite' will be performed by 13 musicians from the London Sinfonietta on March 5 2013 as part of the UK capital's Southbank Festival.  Speaking about 'Radio Rewrite', Andrew Burke, who is chief executive of the London Sinfonietta, told The Guardian that the pieces would not simply be covers of the Oxford band's tracks. He said: "I don't think Steve will be quoting these songs directly – I don't think that's his style. How he uses the songs as a starting point for what he does is going to be part of the excitement." Burke also revealed that Reich was inspired to carry out the work after he met the band in Poland in September and heard that Jonny Greenwood had played one of his compositions. Burke added: "It was the first time he'd met them as musicians and spoken to them at length. Jonny Greenwood played [Reich composition] Electric Counterpoint – Steve saw this guy was seriously interested in his music and Steve became seriously interested in theirs." Radiohead are currently preparing for their 2012 world tour in support of their latest album 'The Kings Of Limbs'.

| NME, 2012-01-24, Radiohead contribute 14 songs to new documentary 'The Island President' soundtrack Radiohead Tickets | ||
 Radiohead have contributed 14 songs from their back catalogue to the soundtrack of new documentary The Island President. The band, who are currently preparing for their extensive world tour in support of 'The King Of Limbs', have allowed a large number of their songs to be used in the soundtrack of a new documentary which looks at the plight of the Republic of Maldives.  The documentary, which won 'Best Documentary' at the Toronto film festival and will be screened this week at the Sundance film festival, tells the story of the struggle the island's leader President Nasheed is going through to raise awareness about the effect that climate change is having on the island. Among the Radiohead songs featured on the soundtrack are 'Idioteque', 'Everything In Its Right Place', 'Reckoner', 'House Of Cards' and 'How To Disappear Completely'. Radiohead frontman Thom Yorke has also posted a message on the band's official website, pledging the band's support for the film. He wrote: "'The Island President' is a film about the Maldives, and the struggle of President Nasheed to get the voice of a small nation heard in the climate change debate. Unless something is done to stop rising sea levels they will lose everything. The country will be under water. Some of our music was used to help tell the story."
