Thom Yorke performs ‘Analyse’ live

Inspired by the recent release of remixes from Thom Yorke’s ‘The Eraser’ album by Burial, Modeselektor and Various, we dug for this video of a live television broadcast of the song ‘Analyse’ performed solo on piano.

No matter what the instrumental backdrop, the song seems to work for all occasions.

Felix Da Housecat ‘Radio’ (alternative cut)

The video for ‘Radio’, the new single by Felix Da Housecat, is essential viewing.

Unless you watch a lot of Peter Greenaway films, you won’t have seen anything quite like it in a long time.

Filmed in Mexico City by Mexican director Michel Franco, the surreal clip features Felix as a ancient-times king strolling with his Cleopatra among scenes of beauty and debauchery.

The video depicts a shameless, decadent world where there’s no difference between beautiful and ugly or rich and poor, and everyone cherishes their radio.

‘Radio’ is one of the highlights of Felix Da Housecat [a] fantastic third album, ‘Virgo Blaktro & The Movie Disco’.

It’s a shimmering three-minute synth-soul reverie.

With its cascading “I can’t live without my radio” chorus and dippy goosebump melody, ‘Radio’ could be a kissing cousin of Buggles’ 1980s hit ‘Video Killed the Radio Star’.

Needless to say, it’s tailor-made for the airwaves and is already picking up strong support the board.
