For anyone in New York City right now, I hope you can see how perfect Amplive's timing is on this one. With the whole city sogged up and dripping, its only fitting that Amplive picked today to get his Radiohead 'In Rainbows' Remix album, "Rainydayz" onto the internet for all to share.
He was originally slapped with a cease and desist from the band, but no doubt Radiohead sees the benefits of windowing their marketing plan, hopefully realizing that the release of this remix record will spit a little new life into the substructure that keeps this record moving long past the traditional release curve. So the cease and desist has ceased and desisted, and its a good thing, because everything I have heard on this is damn damn good.
ENJOY

EDIT: I wrote that before I heard most of it, and really, its amazing. If you've spent any considerable time with 'In Rainbows' (I'm sure many have...Ogre?) or if you have internalized any of the songs in any way, 'Rainydayz' is satisfying - its respectful enough to the original work that it makes you "re-love" elements of the source material (which is what remix albums should do in the first place) that you may have overlooked, while at the same time its easy to appreciate the new work that Amplive has created with the source material. Does that make sense? More simply. THIS=GOOD
