Thom Yorke
2006-present
Laptop Deconstruction
2006-2014
Solo emergence from Radiohead's electronic experiments. Laptop-based glitch, skeletal beats, and climate anxiety stripped of band context.
Radiohead's electronic conscience extracted and isolated: climate dread and political anxiety rendered as glitchy laptop pop, beautiful and uneasy in equal measure.
Atoms for Peace: Yorke's electronic anxiety given a physical body. Flea's bass and Afrobeat polyrhythms collide with glitch editing, making paranoia danceable.
The sound of a man disappearing into his own laptop: Yorke's most skeletal and isolated work, where beats dissolve into static and vocals retreat to whispers.
Cinematic Electronics
2019
The most fully realized solo vision. Dense, propulsive, cinematic electronics with dystopian imagery and surveillance anxiety.
