Remix "Nude" for Radiohead

I'm curious to see how bad I can butcher this amazing song.

Radiohead, iTunes and Garageband are giving fans the opportunity to remix the band's new single "Nude” at http://www.radioheadremix.com

To make remixing easy, the separate ‘stems’* from the song will be available to purchase from iTunes. The ‘stems’ available are bass, voice, guitar, strings/fx and drums. Fans can mix them in any way they like, either by adding their own beats and instrumentation, or just remixing the original parts.

Fans who purchase all five ‘stems’ from iTunes during the first week they're available, will be sent an access code to a GarageBand file ready to open in GarageBand or Logic. However, you don’t need GarageBand to do a remix, all the stems are available in iTunes Plus and compatible with several music software platforms.

Finished mixes can be uploaded to http://www.radioheadremix.com where the public will listen and vote for their favourite remix (voting ends May 1st). Fans can also create a widget allowing votes from their own website, Facebook or MySpace page to be counted as ‘mix votes’ back on radioheadremix.com.

Nude is out now in the UK on CD, 7” and worldwide as a download.

*‘stems’ are the component parts of the song.


Anyone have any suggestions as to what software to use.

    Best song on the record. One of their best ever. This song is haunting. Though it reminds me of my most recent breakup so I can't listen to it anymore. DAMN YOU MICHELLE!!!

    I really hope that one of the "stems" is the lead guitar from later in the song, I'd like to try that out as an into

    don't get me wrong, it's pretty cool that they're doing that... and I like Radiohead.
    but you actually have to pay for the, howdotheycallit, 'stems'?
    Kids! Bringing about Armageddon can be dangerous. Do not attempt it in your own home.

    Nothing like ripping off something Trent Reznor did 2 years ago for free, and turning it into something that has to be paid for

    what a lame band.

    Could someone give me a suggestion for a program that would work for this? I'm not a MAC user so GarageBand is useless to me. I have both an XP and a VISTA machine.

    He was by no means the first person to do this.

    no, but he was the first one to do it with a band people actually care about remixing.
