Thom Yorke’s new radio mix has been made available to stream

The Radiohead frontman previously shared the playlist – featuring James Blake, Oneohtrix Point Never, and more – via Sonos Radio

Last week, Thom Yorke shared a new mix via the radio streaming service Sonos Radio. The set was originally available to listen to until May 27, but has now been shared as a public playlist by the Radiohead frontman.

The playlist – titled “In The Absence Thereof… v1” – represents the first of three one-hour sessions for Sonos, featuring some of Yorke’s influences from past and present. 

James Blake and Oneohtrix Point Never feature, alongside Hereditary composer Colin Stetson, Floating Points, and more.

Thom Yorke has recently had to reschedule solo tour dates due to coronavirus, while Radiohead have been streaming some of their classic shows as part of an ongoing archival concert series.

You can now listen to “In The Absence Thereof… v1” on streaming services including Spotify, Apple Music, and Deezer.
