The singer of Radiohead will update it regularly, distilling it with classic envy and discoveries. Users will have access to tens of thousands of stations, sometimes powered by renowned artists, such as David Byrne, the legend of the Talking Heads, or even Jack White.

The walls are getting closer

Thom Yorke gave some clarifications in a press release relayed by GQ . “(…) Gather what I recently found and which fascinated or moved me, what obsessed me, amazed me, opened new doors for me or reminded me of what I had perhaps forgotten, what which is horribly complex or elegantly simple, which is violent, funny, messy, heavy or bright. In fact, everything that piqued my curiosity, wrote Thom Yorke. With all this time we have to be locked up, I hope it will provide a welcome escape… and maybe stop the walls that are coming together so quickly. "
