London producer Joy Orbison went viral for playing a baile funk remix of Radiohead’s classic Creep during his recent DJ set at Brooklyn Steel in New York. The remix, crafted by DJ Lukinhas, transformed the original’s haunting vibe into a rhythmic, upbeat baile funk track with Thom Yorke’s vocals echoing in the background. Fans’ reactions were mixed, with some praising the unexpected twist and others feeling it didn’t quite capture the essence of the original. Radiohead’s most energetic songs have also been revealed.
Orbison is scheduled for two shows in London at EarTH on November 23 and 30, where fans can catch more of his eclectic style.

Meanwhile, in Radiohead news, Thom Yorke recently shared his indifference to fan speculation about the band’s future, saying they feel free to follow their own path without external expectations. Bassist Colin Greenwood also gave a rare update, mentioning summer rehearsals, as he promotes his new photo book How To Disappear.
“I am not aware of it and don’t really give a flying fuck.”
“No offence to anyone and err, thanks for caring,” he continued. “But I think we’ve earned the right to do what makes sense to us without having to explain ourselves or be answerable to anyone else’s historical idea of what we should be doing.”
