Radiohead Remix

Always thought it would be awesome to work with Thom Yorke's voice. Radiohead offered the track NUDE (from "In Rainbows") for everybody to remix. Listen to OFFCMD's remix from the widget to the right and vote (hit the + sign). (Voting is now closed)
I think the art of remixing has a lot of faces. I usually like remixes that respect the original track in its essence and carry on the theme to a new level (tempo, style, mood, etc..) and I really don't get remixes that take just a bit of the original to create a new, totally unrelated track that just bears the name of the original, is just not fun, or is simply just not a remix anymore.

Offending Material Flyers

Offending Material is an online radio show I used to do at radiolislanegra.com. Every Tuesday I created a new flyer to announce the show, now looking back I feel creating the flyers was one of the best parts of doing the show... Just minutes before going live I did this exercise of coming up with a representation of the word "offensive" without being too graphic, in a more subliminal way. Here is the full collection.

I surrender...

ok, I said it sucks... but nevertheless I had fun editing OC's myspace page.

pods

It takes time to render a live mix recorded analogly into an MP3, specially if you got 2 hours per set to record, compress, and publish. So this is something:
Here are 4 podcasts.
A live mix of recent favourites, and an enhanced podcast with album art, and bookmarks (m4a format, iPod only) and retroactively I am adding two live mixes of offender's root classics with pop inserts . Enjoy

"Pindar" Video Released

The correspondence of image and music is a longly discussed, debated and experimented but still magic relationship. By means of synaesthesia, narrative, or even pure timing, music seems to get another sense.
Here is a quick-and-dirty new video for Pindar, one of the three tracks that have been put on a video production list.

Pindar at Google Video
Pindar at YouTube (if you wanna rate it, comment, etc)
Note: The quality on google video is somehow better than YouTube.

Offending Command at LAST.fm

Why spending time in a crap like MySpace? If we already have an amazing resource as LAST.fm...
Offending Command just signed as artist at last.fm. Follow the link to listen OFFCMD's Singles, and download some free mp3's.
Last.fm must be the BEST and most innovative social network tool online. I don't want to sound preaching, so better explore by yourself.

"Puro Chile" @ Pueblo Nuevo Net label

More free releases online. Offending Command appears on Pueblo Nuevo's first year anniversary compilation. A 60 track compilation available on the chilean net label for download as mp3.
The multi sided album is inclined towards minimal, IDM, and electroacustic realms, but there are a few rarities, like "Puro Chile" which is a housey, nintendo-like free version of Chile National Anthem.

Backward MP3 Releasing

I've had some tunes for too long sititng on my hard drive, and they are not going anywhere unless I share them, so this is the first in a series of free download mp3's I will be publishing here.
This time is "I can't go 4 that (offcmd reenactment)", a free version of, based on samples of Hall & Oates classic pop tune: "I can't go for that (no can do)".
A couple of years ago, my version got broadcasted in Radio Concierto (Chile) and since then I have been recieving emails from people I don't even know, asking for this track... well is time to share
click here to listen, or hold your mouse over here pressing "option" at the same time and choose "Save as" or something like that to download.

Information about music is as important as music itself

Offending Material (see previous entry) has come to its 5th session at RINFM.com
I am having a lot of fun with the programming and I have remembered how great is the "art of playlisting" (as Mixtapes used to be). Some people has been asking me about the track names and artists I play, and I think is important to share this information. This is the way I find new music myself, reading tracknames on the streams and researching them on the web, most of the times you get a preview, or a myspace link (oh no!). One of the sites I frecuently search for info on music is Discogs.com, great resource.
Here I have collected the track names and relevant info of every track I have played so far at the show, I think its important to share this info with info freaks (as myself).
