Absolutely loving the new The Smile track as well.
Getting far too impatient waiting for the album to drop
Both tracks are sublime. Hyped for more

Absolutely loved the subtle strings, horns etc. in the track!
This is becoming a straight up super group.
I love these players they used in the studio! So many killer players. Iāve been obsessed with Chelsea Carmichael and Theon Cross for the past few years.
I love this song. Transports me back to In Rainbows.
The Smile also released 4th single.
Surely album imminent
Iām done listening to these singles. Theyāve been so good I donāt want to burn them out before the album.
This has probably been posted before, but it certainly couldnāt hurt to see again. Lovely use of his euro for accompaniment.
these sessions were wonderful
Thom played an acoustic set at the weekend in Zermatt in Switzerland, which sounds like it was amazing.
Apparently it was recorded by the venue but there are already quite a few videos dotted around. Itās an insane setlist. According to Stereogum, it was:
- Has Ended
- Free In The Knowledge
- Bodysnatchers
- Everything In Itās Right Place
- Suspirium
- Pana-Vision
- Daydreaming
- Decks Dark
- I Might Be Wrong
- These Are My Twisted Words
- Bloom
- Unmade
- Open Again
- Present Tense
- The Clock
- Videotape
- Idioteque
- Rabbit In Your Headlights
- Exit Music (For A Film)
- Spectre
- The Eraser
- House Of Cards
- Weird Fishes / Arpeggi
For Idioteque he looped some chords on his piano and then sang the song, it was great!
Wow that setlist is insane for a full band let alone Yorke Solo
looks like heās using a Make Noise Shared System to capture and modulate loops in some combination of Morphagene + Ecophon + Erbe-Verb. hard to say for sure, of courseā¦ but the patch looks pretty simple.
a quick google did lend some weight to that theory though:
anyway, thatās a cool clip. likely he could do the same performance with a Blooper now though
Yeah I think heās got the piano micād and amplified through the Shared Systemās input, then using the āFreezeā button on Echophon to capture/loop bits of his playing, then sending all that through Erbe Verb. Also appears to be some clocking from Tempi and maybe an LFO from Maths.
I love this man so much.
Iām more impressed by the Britishness of having his cup of tea next to him
