There’s a great article about Jonny over at The Independent. He goes in-depth into the making of the Bodysong score, discussing methods of recording and some of the very obscure instruments he used.
Read it here.

NME reports that Nigel is producing the new album by underrated indie heros (and formed RH openers) The Beta Band.
From NME–
The Beta Band have revealed that Radiohead producer Nigel Godrich will work on their new album.
In a message posted on the band’s website, singer Steve Mason explained that the band are happy with the results. “He’s (Godrich) working at Mayfair Studios in London. Me and Rich (Greentree, bass) went down at the weekend to see what he’s doing to our LP and its all good!
“Looks like 12 tracks will go on the record out of the 17 we recorded,” he explained. “Mixing will be done in two weeks and the LP will be out in February.”

Happened upon a friend who had received the newly released Radiohead documentary “Homework” for his birthday. I know many of you (myself included) are completists who’ll pick up anything and everything Radiohead related, but the picture on the cover is about as much Radiohead as you’ll find in this thing. It is literally an interview with three Oxford record store owners set to some random (non-RH) music. Unauthorized indeed…
