This is only a remix album but is sponsored by Nike so James has been called out. I see Pitchfork gave the album an 8.0 rating as is only available via iTunes. Not putting out $9.99 for this 128K rip but wouldn’t even if it was at 192+, still want to hear it though. Anyways this is on LCD’s message board because he has been called a sell out to that sweatshop corporation known as Nike Shoes:

everybody relax. i'm on a major label in most fucking territories anyway! didn't i already sell out a million times already? jesus.

anyway, i don't like nike, and when i was asked, i was totally not into it. it really wasn't a ton of money or anything either. the truth is, it was straight up a good challenge, musically. i thought it was kind of funny that it was workout music etc., and so i made something to distract me from the LP and give me a new perspective on it. it totally did, and now the record is way better.

i'm seriously not here to be anybody's fucking indie poster boy. i'm 36 years old, for fuck's sake. i measure what i do, my ethics, my success or failure on terms like "is this good music?" and "am i getting out of my comfort zone to do something real?" i think we make better music than other people. i know it's not cool to say, but i do. we work really hard and fucking try to balance making music that works as well as pushes things forward every day, and that's my life. if that's not good enough for you, there are plenty of fucking boring indie bands out there sucking the life out of music, but, most assuredly, NOT doing anything that could be considered "selling out". go buy their records, then call me in 5 years and tell me if you give a shit about a single thing they made.

well--great. karma's a whore. someone just smashed the rear window of my beat-ass volvo 240 wagon, so there's $150 in the toilet. and it's raining.

i would have kept blathering on about this, but it seems i have to go cover the hole with a garbage bag or something.

shit.

Now I just feel stupid for asking. I should have just assumed.

I'm actually really excited to run to this seeing as my run is usually round 45 minutes

. I'm not so sure about the 20 min of cool down

but we'll see.

it's good if you're into the indie dance/electronic type stuff. it's not a remix album, just a mix by lcd.

and it was a strategic marketing promo deal between nike & lcd. it happens.

I've ahemed before, and I've been ahemed before.
I think they were both Radiohead-related.
