I so want to go play
Trent Reznor has released his new single (”The hand that feeds”) for free on-line. This, by itself, is hardly big news (although it’s cool). The really spiffy part is that he’s released it in Garage Band format, so people can remix, fiddle, and rearrange to their heart’s content. Kinda like what Jay-Z did with his Black Album (hence the excellent Grey Album), but even more open.
The possibilities here are really huge. The trick, though, is to let the artists do their art thing with minimal crap from the record companies, and that’s not gonna be easy.
Thanks to Aaron I. for pointing me to this way nifty factoid.
