"15 Step," Radiohead

Song: "15 Step"
Album: In Rainbows
Artist: Radiohead

Yes, I bought the Radiohead album In Rainbows from their web site. I love Radiohead and this album does not disappoint. I'm always willing to pay for good music. I paid 7 pounds (about $14) after reading a review from a guy who successfully downloaded it for $.02. I'm a fan of the honor system and I'm a fan of anything that helps bring about changes the music industry.

15 Step is my favorite song on the album. The production of Radiohead songs has been a fascination of mine. I love the contrast of the chant-like, sampled hand clap percussion which begins the song and then is consumed by the lazy guitar. I love the sampled yells of children too. For me, this is the height of popular creativity in music production now.
