Remix-A-Day, part 2: DOOM – Gazillion Ear (Thom Yorke Remix)

Click on the turntable on the left to listen to a continuous stream of music featured on Pretty Much Amazing - updated every day. For more, you can check out the Best Songs of 2011, or our Best Albums of 2011.

Because we are focusing more on upcoming musical releases around here, new remixes get the short end of the PMA stick, sadly. I am determined to devote one post a day on new remixes, instead of bunching 10+ remixes in bulk. That has become somewhat tacky. Click here to read all of our Remix-A-Day remixes.

If you haven’t heard DOOM’s new album, you are certainly missing out. “Gazillion Ear” was always one of my favorite DOOM tracks, and Thom Yorke transforming it into what could easily be Radiohead’s most experimental b-side ever. It’s a marvelous remix, even if it does sound like it was made for Radiohead’s upcoming LP — I have found that emcees doing their thing over Radiohead works quite well.

I keep waiting for another Danger Doom album. It seems Danger Mouse has kinda dissapeared recently.

Yeah where is Dangermouse? I hear rumors of a Sparklehorse project that’s being kept a secret. I’d rather hear another Madvillain.

according to wikipedia: “”NME” also reports that Danger Mouse is going to produce The Shortwave Set’s third album. Upcoming releases include a collaboration with Sparklehorse entitled either Sparklemouse or Danger Horse, and a follow-up to Ghetto Pop Life entitled “Kill Your Heroes.” “KYH” was scheduled to be released in summer of 2006, but its release has been pushed back to an undetermined date. A collaborative album with Black Thought of The Roots is said to be in the works.He was also working on an album with The Black Keys and Ike Turner. Turner’s death was expected to cancel the album, but The Black Keys and Danger Mouse released Attack & Release in April 2008. Some songs must have been recorded by Turner, however, as a posthumous Danger Mouse produced album is scheduled to be released this year, as well as another collaboration with MF Doom. Danger Mouse also produced Beck’s album Modern Guilt, which was released in July 2008. Danger Mouse’s official website now lists “Joker’s Daughter” as a group he is working with.”
