Today I came across this article. If you don't want to read it, it basically says that the Radiohead albums OK Computer (1993) and In Rainbows (2007) complement one another to make one complete mega-album. Did Radiohead intentionally do this? Who knows. But I'm about halfway through trying it out, and it sounds great so far. If you want to try it, here are the steps:
1. Starting with "Airbag" from OK Computer, alternate tracks between the two albums in sequential order.
2. When you get to "Karma Police" (which will be track 11 on the playlist), put "Fitter Happier" next. This is the turnaround, because OK Computer has 12 tracks and In Rainbows only has 10. [Hint: The screenshot at the top of this blog shows the right order.]
3. Set the crossfade playback to 10 seconds. If you're using iTunes (and I hope you are), do this:
4. Go to Preferences, Playback, check the box that says Crossfade Songs, and drag the slider to the next to last hash, then click OK [Computer].
If you don't have these albums already, shame on you! And also you can get them here:
OK Computer
In Rainbows
