[Watch] James Murphy and Nick Zinner Tinker in the Studio
James Murphy has been keeping himself busy since the disbanding of LCD Soundsystem, from coffee shops to DJ sets on the S.S. Coachella. Today, though, we see the DFA cofounder back in the studio with none other than Nick Zinner of the Yeah Yeah Yeahs. In a London loft-turn-studio, the pair tinker with various instruments and audio machinery. The footage makes sense, given Murphy previously stating he was planning to record with the band. Check it out below to see Murphy and Zinner as excited as a couple of kids on Christmas morning.
[Watch & Download] Nick Zinner - 41 Strings
In celebration the 41st anniversary of Earth Day, Nick Zinner of Yeah Yeah Yeahs fame led an orchestra ensemble to perform an original piece which he composed called 41 Strings. You can check out a documentary which details the complete making of the composition via the video above. The composition was created in collaboration with Hisham Akira Bharoocha and Ben Vida of Soft Circle, and seems to honor the classical tradition of concertos but with a more modern, rock 'n' roll feel that you would expect out of a guy like Zinner.
You can have a listen to the full arrangement below. The Creators Project was also nice enough to offer downloads of the individual tracks which you can grab as well.
