[Watch] Chris Martin playing new Coldplay track "Wedding Bells"

Apple launched some new products yesterday (September 1st) which is no real surprise but to launch the new gadgets they enrolled the help of Coldplay's Chris Martin and Lady Gaga. One of Gaga's videos was played while The Coldplay Frontman played hits "Viva La Vida" and "Yellow", but also introduced an entirely new track entitled "Wedding Bells". Before playing the track he stated that "this could be the only time you hear it", adding "This is a new song, this is called the Coldplay 2.6, this features seven different types of chord, including a new one that even our closest rivals know nothing about."

As well as this at the convention Apple launched a new Music based social network called Ping along with iTunes 10. Ping allows you to add Musicians and friends as well as following what they are listening to and gigs they are to attend. I'll let you be the judge of how innovative this new Social Network is. I'm still unconvinced, but then Apple do have a pretty successful track record with their products and apps.

[Download] Jason Cox - Dither Seafood (Beck - Sea Change Remix Album)

So as I was on my quest this afternoon to see if I could conjure up any new Beck b-sides, I stumbled across this.... I don't even know what to call it. It's too much for my brain to handle right now.

This isn't exactly a new project, so I'm not sure how I missed this before. Regardless, it's just one of those things you have to share. Not too often you hear something and you feel your brain shout "WHAT IT GOING ON!?"

Jason Cox has taken one of my favorite albums of all time, Sea Change, and sliced it up, chunked it up, and sped it up into something that I vaguely recognize but still find myself enjoying even with the constant stream of chipmunk-sounding vocals.

I'm not even sure if I could come up with anymore of an explanation than that at this moment, other than that al the song titles on this album are the same as Sea Change but terribly scrambled up.

Have a listen and tell me you guys think! Also, if there are other Beck remix albums like this (that aren't Guerolito) that you know about, send them my way!

[Listen] Linkin Park - "Wretches And Kings"

All hope is not lost for Linkin Park! Fans that preordered the new album, A Thousand Suns, received a special email today containing a new track titled "Wretches and Kings." This track is pretty heavy, the production reminds me of Nine Inch Nail's Year Zero but it brings back the feel of the old Linkin Park except for Chester's Rasta accent. Now if this only could have been the first single.
