The Circle of Needle & Thread as Radiohead songs

Inspiration has struck! I am obsessed with Candela Chapter 2 and also really like Radiohead so I kinda just had to. Dunno if this is for anyone but it fits so well!

1. The whole circle:

Pyramid Song

I jumped in the river and what did I see? Black-eyed angels swam with me

This one fits on vibes alone but also bc of the river in the last ep and the black-eyed angels could be the creatures if you squint.

The Gloaming

Murderers, you're murderers We are not the same as you When the walls bend with your breathing They will suck you down to the other side To the shadows blue and red.

We are not the same as you? I mean c'mon! The walls bending at the Fourth Pharos, They will suck you down to the other side, blue and red light! It just fits!

Spectre

I'm lost, I'm a ghost Dispossessed, taken host My hunger burns a bullet hole A spectre of my mortal soul

Because of the 'host-thing' and the romance themes, this feels like it leans more towards Marion. But it kinda is too dark for his hopeful personality. We also got lines like "anger is a poison" which feels very fitting for Sean. Sidenote: I still get so angry thinking about how they rejected this song for the Bond-movie wtf?

4 Minute Warning

This is just a nightmare Soon I'm gonna wake up Someone's gonna bring me 'round Running from the bombers

It's PTSD innit?

2. Jean "Jinnah" Basar:

Everything In Its Right Place

Everything in its right place Yesterday, I woke up sucking a lemon

This one is a given! Not much to say except that it speaks to Jean's exact and analytic nature.

House of Cards

I don't want to be your friend I just want to be your lover No matter how it ends No matter how it starts

Jean's balancing of Candela and EONS being like a house of cards. Her initial denial of her own guilt and relationship to magick. Her feelings towards Marion.

3. Marion Collodi:

Daydreaming

Dreamers, they never learn Beyond the point of no return

Also a given! This was honestly what inspired me to make this post in the first place. Both the vibe and the lyrics fit very well!

Desert Island Disk

Born of a light, born of a light The wind rushing 'round my open heart An open ravine with my spirit wide Totally alive and my spirit light

Marion and his soul, especially the speech in ep 3 where he says he feels whole without one.

4. Sean Finnerty:

2+2=5

It's the devil's way now There is no way out You can scream and you can shout It is too late now Because you have not been paying attention

Gaahh I am unable to be normal about Sean Finnerty! Can I appropriate a song written about George W. Bush to be about Dr. Oliver Nero? You betcha! To me this song speaks to the lies told by authority figures and how they have destroyed Seans life.

Ful Stop

You really messed up everything If you could take it all back again Strike up the tinderbox Why should I be good if your're not?

Why should I be good if you're not! Very much giving Sean in ep 3!

5. Beatrix "Auntie Bea" Monroe

No Surprises

Such a pretty house and such a pretty garden

Bring down the government, they don't speak for us! The rest is self-explanatory.

Give Up the Ghost

Gather up the lost and their souls into your arms Gather up the pitiful into your arms

Auntie Bea and all those she takes under her wing.

6. Nathaniel Trapp

Go to Sleep

Someone's son or someone's daughter Over my dead body This is how I end up sucked in Over my dead body

A song about the dehumanizing effects of war. Trapp's guilt over Marion and the Finnerty boys getting sucked into the military.

Glass Eyes

Hey, it's me, I just got off the train A frightening place, the faces are concrete grey In the oh-so-smug glassy eyed light of day

Get it? Because of his eye? And also anxiety... and trains!

Bonus: The Creatures:

We Suck Young Blood

Are you fracturing? Are you torn at the seams? Would you do anything?

The Candela vibes are strong with this one!

Tinker Tailor Soldier Sailor Rich Man Poor Man Beggar Man Thief

The ones you light your fires to keep away Is crawling out upon its belly And all you have to do is say yes

Both these songs remind me of the son trying to convince Sean to let him in.

Update! How could I forget:

Suspirium (By Thom Yorke)

When I arrive will you come and find me? Or in a crowd be one of them? Mother wants us back beside her No tomorrows, at peace

An anthem for the son!

The problem with Marxism is that oversimplifies things by having only two main classes. I prefer the far more useful 8-classes model.

Tinker

Tailor

Soldier

Sailor

Rich Man

Poor Man

Beggar Man

Thief

(In the US there are 11 classes: the 8 already mentioned plus doctor, lawyer, and Indian Chief)

Radiohead’s Crumar

A cropped portion of the cover of Minidisc 117, from MINIDISCS [Hacked]. The third track is a very early demo of Melatonin, listed here as Crumar Song.

One small but notable revelation of the MINIDISCS [Hacked] is that the song Melatonin was initially called “Crumar Song”. The studio recording of Melatonin begins with a stripped-back arrangement of just two string synthesizers panned left and right, and these synths form the foundation of the song. The MINIDISCS version (at 7:19 on track/disc 7) is even more stripped back – just Thom and the string synthesizer. It’s a recording that feels much too personal to listen to, giving a glimpse of Thom shakily throwing down the barest sketch of song to review and refine later on. However, the title lets us know that the particular string synthesizer which Thom used for Melatonin is the band’s Crumar Multiman-S (marketed in the United States as the Crumar “Orchestrator”). If the Crumar was purchased while Nigel was building Radiohead’s studio in 1996, then perhaps Melatonin was inspired by this new bit of gear.

Jonny playing the Crumar Multiman-S with his left hand and a Moog MiniMoog Voyager PE during a performance of Myxomatosis in London on May 26, 2016.

Though Jonny has scored parts for the real string sections since The Bends, Radiohead has kept up an interest in string synthesizers throughout their career. This does not come as too much of a surprise, since songs by Jonny’s favorite band, Magazine, frequently feature string synthesizers, as do later tracks by Joy Division, whose records Thom and Colin passed around when they were at school. In truth, these instruments sound only vaguely like a strings section (especially when their built-in chorus or phaser effects are active), and it’s perhaps better think of them as a different instrument altogether – rather than as a poor replica.

Unlike polyphonic subtractive synthesizers, which have a set number of voices with an oscillator (or more) per voice, string synthesizers make use of a frequency divider architecture. These instruments have a single master oscillator at a high frequency, the output of which is precisely divided to produce every note on the keyboard. This means that all keys can be played simultaneously and will produce sound, as on a piano or organ. However, what really gave these instruments a distinctive sound was the built-in phasor, chorus, and vibrato circuits. These lush effects were meant to better emulate a string section, but they give more of a warm, spacey sound.

In this screenshot from a video of Radiohead recording 2+2=5 at Ocean Way Studio B in September, 2002, the Crumar Multiman-S can be seen on the right, resting on top of the Rhodes piano (youtube). It’s hard to make out the name on the Crumar, but the distinctive spacing of its letters (“C R U M A R”) belies its identity.

Radiohead’s Crumar Multiman-S first appeared in a video of the band recording 2+2=5 at Ocean Way Studio B in September, 2002 (see photo below). It’s unlikely that it was used on that particular song, but it’s very likely that it was at least one of the primary string synths used on Hail To The Thief. The band tried to record that album as a “live” performances as much as possible, making it more likely that the string synth in the room with them is the same one heard on the album (as opposed to an album like Kid A, where heavy overdubbing was used). Almost certainly heard on Myxomatosis (1:09 onwards), and possibly on Where I End and You Begin.

In Rainbows – Disk 2 heavily features string synthesizers on tracks like Go Slowly, Up On The Ladder, and 4 Minute Warning (during the outro section). Live, Jonny and Colin have always played those parts on MIDI controllers connected to samplers, and photos from the recording of In Rainbows mostly show subtractive synths, which made it difficult to identify which string synth was used. However, a screenshot of Radiohead’s Kontakt 3 sampler from the 2008 tour revealed that the Crumar was used for Up On The Ladder. Perhaps the Crumar was used for the other songs as well.

A cropped portion of the screenshoot of Radiohead’s Kontakt 3 sampler, showing the preset titled “UP ON THE LADDER crumar” (pmtonline.co.uk).

Jonny might have been feeling nostalgic in 2016, because Jonny decided to bring the Crumar Orchestrator and his student-model ondes Martenot (instead of his Fatar MIDI keyboard and French Connection) for the band’s tour in support of A Moon Shaped Pool. But in spite of bringing a “string” synthesizer, Jonny more often used guitar, ondes Martenot, and the DSI Prophet 08 to reproduce the London Contemporary Orchestra’s string parts from A Moon Shaped Pool. During the 2016 tour, Jonny played the Crumar on Planet Telex, Street Spirit, Talk Show Host, Climbing Up The Walls, Myxomatosis, Desert Island Disk, and Tinker Tailor.

But although the album is full of string recordings, the heavily-processed “strings” panned left on the recording of Desert Island Disk sound more like a string synthesizer than real strings. Since Jonny brought the Crumar on tour in support of the album, perhaps it was used on the recording of that track.

Radiohead have occasionally performed with other string synthesizers, but only for one-off performances. Jonny used a Solina Strings Ensemble instead of a MIDI keyboard for the 2010 Haiti Benefit show, and Thom and Jonny a brought Korg Poly-Ensemble for their 2010 Glastonbury surprise show.

Some of Jonny’s Crumar settings can be seen in this screenshot of the band’s performance of Talk Show Host at NOS Alive on July 8, 2016. Looks like all sliders are set to 11...

A photo which Nigel posted on his twitter account on March 25, 2013, after purchasing Native Instruments Komplete 9 (twitter). The Crumar Orchestrator can be seen behind the Korg Poly-Ensemble P PE-1000, to the right of the Sequential Circuits Prophet 5. Nigel joked that he was selling all of these keyboards after purchasing the software, but the use of the Prophet 5 on A Moon Shaped Pool and the Crumar on the 2016 tour shows clearly that he was just poking fun.
