"As an experiment we are using a new version of BitTorrent to distribute a new Thom Yorke record.
The new Torrent files have a pay gate to access a bundle of files..
The files can be anything, but in this case is an 'album'.
Itโs an experiment to see if the mechanics of the system are something that the general public can get its head around ...
If it works well it could be an effective way of handing some control of internet commerce back to people who are creating the work.
Enabling those people who make either music, video or any other kind of digital content to sell it themselves.
Bypassing the self elected gate-keepers.
If it works anyone can do this exactly as we have done.
The torrent mechanism does not require any server uploading or hosting costs or โcloudโ malarkey.
It's a self-contained embeddable shop front...
The network not only carries the traffic, it also hosts the file. The file is in the network.
Oh yes and it's called
Tomorrow's Modern Boxes.
Thom Yorke & Nigel Godrich!
gimmicks on gimmicks on gimmicks when will these stupid pale island people stop trying to appeal to the anti-establishment truisms of boring, aging Gen Xers and let the music speak for itself?

Fuck why can't anyone I care about suddenly drop an album? Why does it have to be U2 or Death Grips or Thom Yorke solo, why can't I have a sudden Stereolab reunion album?

Who are you referring to when you say 'stupid pale island people'?

there wasn't another good over-the-top joking way to refer to both Bono and Thom Yorke since Ireland is sovereign but the joke wasn't entirely funny or anything
