I thought this clip of an 8-bit “OK Computer” might be a clever and amusing idea for all of about a minute, at which time it’d quickly become tedious (not to mention sacrilegious!).
Instead, I’ve found myself listening to it 5 times all the way through - in the space of as many hours - marvelling at the mashup of low-fi game console sound with one of the most iconic albums of all time (I realise it’s boring to say this is my favourite album, too, but nevertheless it is). Two of my favourite things blended perfectly.
If you missed it last month as I did, at least listen through Airbag, Paranoid Android, then Let Down & No Surprises. It’s genius.
