PREVIEW DOOM ft. Thom Yorke & Jonny Greenwood :: “Retarded Fren”" (MP3)

We’ve been waiting for this one for a long time now—veteran villain rapper DOOM teamed up with Radiohead’s Thom Yorke and Jonny Greenwood to create this track for Lex Record’s Complex 10th Anniversary compilation. The label plans to release one track a week every Monday for the next 10 weeks, starting Nov. 7, before finally dropping the physical product around the holidays.

This may not be the only RadioDOOM (DOOMhead?) music in the pike. DOOM was quoted last spring when discussing working with Yorke, ““[It's] just like preliminary shit, but we’ll probably end up doing a whole record together.”

HEAR Thom Yorke BBC 6Mix (MP3)

Radiohead seem to have come to a new point in their storied career, where their own music seems almost secondary to the fact that they bring a constant awareness of new sounds to a mass audience that might not otherwise invest the time in finding new music themselves.

To that end, Thom Yorke took to the mixing board for this week’s BBC 6Mix with a two hour selection of songs that are “inspiring” him right now. And while there’s a lot of obvious selections in the set—J Dilla, Caribou, Jamie XX, Flying Lotus—the real tresures are found in the inclusion of artists such as Dabrye, Ricardo Villalobos & Max Loderbaur, Tapes and Steve Poindexter, whose music flies under all but the most dedicated music fan’s radar.

There is also of course selections from the recently released TKOL 1234567 remix collection, as well as a not before heard “club” mix of Jamie XX’s version of Radiohead’s “Bloom.”

You can glance the tracklist after the jump and stream the full session on the BBC website.

On Tuesday, Radiohead celebrated the release of their TKOL RMX 1234567 album with an event in London that featured DJ sets by TKOL remixers Jamie XX, Caribou, Lone and Illum Sphere. The evening started off with a brief set by Thom Yorke, who has been spending plenty of time behind the decks lately—including a surprise set at Low End Theory last spring. You can download Yorke’s set, which featured tracks from Headhunter, Madvillian, Aphex Twin and Ramadanman, and watch the singer play records on The Boiler Room website.

Next up for Yorke is a mix he did for the BBC’s 6Mix, which will air on Sunday, Oct. 17th. The show features Yorke playing and discussing some of his favorite current records, including Zomby, Low, Emika and James Blake. He also plays a few Radiohead remixes that didn’t make it onto the TKOL RMX 1234567 record. Check out the tiny teaser for the show.

Watch Radiohead On Fallon + Live DJ Set + TKOL Remixes (Video)

If Radiohead saturation hasn’t kicked in just yet, this might be the post that does it for a while. The group wrapped up an extended stay in New York—which included performances on SNL and Colbert, plus two concerts at Roseland Ballroom (photos) and a rumored appearance at the Occupy Wall Street protest with one last TV stop on Jimmy Fallon. Why bother you might ask? Maybe because none other than Michael Stipe showed-up to sit silently next to Fallon while he introduced the band (or at least Thom Yorke and Johnny Greenwood) who performed a gentle version of “Give Up The Ghost.”
