Thom Yorke has written an 18 day long track

http://consequenceofsound.net/2015/05/thom-yorke-composed-a-soundtrack-of-new-music-thats-18-days-long/

Anyone in Sydney gonna go see this?

Read into it more last night. It's not a single 18 day long track, it's three separate tracks of different lengths looped which are played in unison (so there are >18 days of permutations).

Looks/sounds really beautiful! Not surprisingly it's like jumping directly into the Radiohead album art and wandering around in it.

when brought down to 2 seconds, it spells out the word 'pretension'

probs just Thom ripping a fart put through paulstretch.exe

Not before I finish watching Andy Warhol's Empire and listening to Cairbou's month long mixtape. Thank god for amphetamines.

Would love to actually see this btw.

If you make 2 one minute loops with a single sample difference in length you can play them for 30 days before they loop.

yeah, it's funny how he's doing something so many of us have experimented with and all of a sudden it's news.. I'll never tire of that technique though.

psh amateur...

"On 10 July 2014, the band released 305: Hostages are Human Beings. On 12 July 2014, 303: n(k), 304: 0(2^18×5^18) and 306: It is Not a Lack of Love were released. On the very next day, they released several other tracks of various lengths. By the time, 310: ΩΣPx0(2^18×5^18)p*k*k*k is their longest release, and lasts for 3.343 quindecillion years."

None of the dudes in Radiohead seem to care about Radiohead anymore. They had a good run though.
