Jay-Z + Radiohead = Jaydiohead
Dec 3rd
My past few posts have all included remixes. Most of which are bands which I like but don’t particular love, until now…
This cross Atlantic collaboration, and by collaboration I mean a mashup without their permission, consists of 2 of the biggest artists of the past 10 years. In one corner we’ve got the king of the remix Jay-Z, and in the other we’ve got the melodic beats of Radiohead.
There’s been several attempts over the past years to remix Jay-Z with varying results. Dangermouse’s Grey album is probably one of my favourite albums (Jay-Z and Beatles – whats not too like!). Jay-Zeezer was a decent but mostly unsuccessful mashup of Jay and Weezer.
The Jaydiohead attempt is actually pretty good. Nothing seems forced and it seems to flow really well. I’ve got a couple of previews below (as well as some of the other attempts) but if you want the full albums you can download them here: Download
UPDATE: should really give a shout out to the guy behind it, Max Tannone. You can find more of his work at the above link.
