Remix Radiohead in iTunes
A couple of years ago, Trent Reznor released fully editable GarageBand versions of a few Nine Inch Nails songs. Others have followed suit (like Burger King), and now Radiohead joins their number.They've made all five tracks (or "stems") of the song "Nude" available in iTunes for $0.99 each [iTunes link]. The tracks are in DRM-free iTunes Plus format, so you can pretty much manipulate them however you'd like.
Purchase all five before the end of this week and receive an access code for the full GarageBand file. Once you've finished your remix, you can upload it here. It definitely sounds like fun, especially for Radiohead fans (like me).

Please don't hate me...
As a Tuaw reader, check me out. I was in the Top 10. Now I'm number 11. The Clip Hop Strip Mix.

I am a *huge* Radiohead fan, but come on, making us pay for the different audio files? Meet the new boss, same as the old boss.

NIN makes several multitrack versions of their songs available for free on remix.nin.com (and you will find more on the Year Zero remix album and Ghosts I-IV). They are also available in multiple formats: Garageband, Ableton Live, and raw WAV files.
April 03 2008 at 9:44 AM Report abuse Permalink rate up rate down ReplySo, they are asking me to pay 5 bucks for a song that I can edit? That's a fantastic idea and all, but that's just too expensive for one song. This is a great sign of things to come, though.

And now that their totally ripping off NIN, my respect is at its lowest point since the lead singer had blonde hair.
Not only do they want you to do the work of a remixer (who gets paid for this) - their actually going to sale you the privilege?
