Radiohead’s Thom York to DJ at London event to celebrate release of remix albumTKOL RMX 1234567

Thom Yorke is hosting a one-off show later this month to mark the release of Radiohead’s new remix album ‘TKOL RMX 1234567‘.  The event will take place at London’s Corsica Studios on 11th October 2011.

This latest release is a collection of remixed 12” tracks taken from the band’s eighth studio album ‘The King of Limbs‘ (which originally was released earlier this year) and will be available on a compilation double-CD (and to download) on 10^th October 2011.

Thom was quoted as saying:

“The remix 12″s came out of us wanting to experiment with the tunes further. I was really curious to see how the people I was listening to so much would use what we gave them. I didn’t just want floor fillers and all that shit, I just wanted to see how the songs could really branch out and mutate. I love that there is such a culture of remixing at the moment, all this flow of ideas. It may come outta the club scene but to me there is a lot more to it than that. I think it appeals to us as a band at the moment that ideas and versions are not so fixed and set in stone, it feels kind of healthy for music.”

Radiohead’s lead singer will be making a personal appearance, behind the decks, sometime during the evening and will also be joined by Jamie XX, Caribou, Lone and Illum Sphere all of whom feature on the album.

Unfortunately tickets are not on general sale as this is an ‘invite only’ event but will however be streamed online to fans via The Boiler Room.

Radiohead are playing two live shows in New York and will then return to tour the UK sometime in 2012.
