I stumbled across a recording of a weather report from the Burns’ Day storm of 1990 during which more than ninety people lost their lives. It inspired me to make this latest Deep Folk Mixtape.

Tarta Relena som la Marta Torrella i l'Helena Ros.
Gravat, mesclat i masteritzat a Caballo Grande Estudios excepte Tou Votanikoú, masteritzat a Vacuum Mastering.
Portada de Clàudia Torrents.

Ma ezevgarósan és una melodia de Creta que ens va ensenyar l’Evgenía Toli a Creta mateix. Tota Pulchra és una polifonia tradicional de Còrsega. D’ençà és la unió de Polifonia CDG de Maria Arnal i Marcel Bagés amb D’ençà que ella partí de Toti Soler. Morenika és una melodia sefardí. Cecília és una cançó menorquina. Votanikoú és una cançó de rebetiko que vam escoltar cantada per Tomas Karamazakis. Figues és la Björk collint figues a Mallorca. So de Pastera és un copeo mallorquí.

There have been a lot of whispers and rumours about Thom Yorke's Atoms for Peace project since the band formed in 2009 to play The Eraser live. In the new issue of Dazed & Confused, the fabled frontman clears up the speculation surrounding Amok, his first group album outside of Radiohead, with one of his most in-depth interviews to date. He also talks frankly about his life and work, discussing his uneasy relationship with fame, that video for "Lotus Flower" and why he's still intent on bending people's heads of out shape. 

Also, stay tuned to Dazed Digital over the next fortnight, as we'll be enrolling 14 of today's most innovative producers, including Actress, Machinedrum, Flying Lotus and Arca, into "The University of Yorke". They'll be asking Thom a series of burning questions, plus much, much more.

Until then, we thought we'd get you in the mood by asking the man himself to make us an, ahem, A-Thomic mix of some of his favourite tunes. Little did we realise that he would go into the studio with Nigel Godrich and emerge with 25 minutes of unreleased solo material and remixes. Suffice to say, it's essential listening. Check below for the tracklisting, and make sure you pick up the issue, which hits the shelves today.

Thom Yorke – exclusive Dazed Digital mix

@Vargkvint Contemplative Classical Guest Mix:

This playlist features songs that inspire me in my music and that I’ve in many cases have had the pleasure to enjoy live. I think all of them has a roughness and honesty about them, that’s really suitable to the weather and mindset of Stockholm right now, where winter is long gone but spring never seems to arrive.  I see this mix as a journey that starts in a dreamlike state with the nostalgically haunting ”Come wander with me”, that then moves through delicate piano songs, some melancholic acoustic guitar pieces and evolving into more electronic soundscapes. The mix also features a premiere of Aisling Brouwer’s rework of Jakob Lindagen’s ”In the Machinery”. 
I’m imagining this mix working wonderfully while sitting in a remote cabin in the woods listening to this as the night slowly falls. 

Vargkvint is the musical project of Swedish multi-artist Sofia Nystrand. Her first full-length album ”Hav” is scheduled for release on April 5th through Piano And Coffee Records. She has on several occasions toured internationally, and will perform at Q3Ambientfest in Potsdam, Germany on April 14th.
