Monday Fun Links

  • UK producer Mark Ronson is the first to officially remix Bob Dylan; check out a clip on his MySpace page.

  • Led Zeppelin will finally allow their music to be (legally) downloaded. Your move, Radiohead.

  • The Guardian gives us a brief history of Shoegaze, in which Creation Records founder Alan McGee calls My Bloody Valentine a "joke".

  • A fascinating look at Michel Gondry's slightly, erm, obsessive process creating the mind-blowing video for the Chemical Brothers 2002 single "Star Guitar." Watch 'til the end to see the prototype video made with oranges and shoes and stuff.

    You can already download all of Radiohead's back catalogue, legally, from WarChild Music at http://www.7digital.com/stores/default.aspx?shop=15 A percentage of sales go to projects which benefit children in war zones-- you can get more information from the main site, http://www.warchild.org.uk/index.asp

    They just prefer to sell their albums online in their entirety, rather than have them available for track by track download, which they would have to accept at iTunes. You can, however, buy Thom Yorke's solo album through iTunes, and perhaps the upcoming one will be available as well. We'll see...

    Thanks for the War Child links -- but yes, album-only downloads, and OK Computer will set you back £7.99, which is $16.18 at the current exchange rate.
