R.E.M.hq: EXTRAS-REMix

When the last REM album (Around the Sun) came out a couple of years ago, I saw the video to the first single, – ‘Leaving New York’.

It was nothing startling or different, but then why would REM want to do that when they have a formula that works. As with much of their best work, the lyrics tug at a melancholic feeling that connects us together. After watching the video I visited their official website for the first time. And found that they have a load of remix downloads available which are worth a listen. They can be downloaded for free – just follow the link.

REM have just finished a series of dates in Ireland to test out new material and are now in a studio in that country working on the new album.
