Shaltis-Reich in Rainbows (Solo version) (SP)-B/M/ prerecorded audio (download from publisher)

Composer William Shaltis says the following of his work Reich in Rainbows:
"The music of composer Steve Reich and the later music of the band Radiohead have a lot in common. In fact, around the time I was writing this mashup of their music, Steve Reich heard Radiohead guitarist Jonny Greenwood perform his Electric Counterpoint. Reich was so blown away that he himself wanted to write a piece based on the music of this band - what became his Radio Rewrite.

Both Reich and Radiohead seem to support remixes of their music, based on the sheer number of commercial recordings of remixed songs/works available for both. My idea was to take three tracks off of Radiohead's In Rainbows album and create remixed versions using compositional processes developed by Reich. Some of these processes are found in Reich's Drumming, Electric Counterpoint, and Mallet Quartet, among others. The Radiohead tracks selected - "Weird Fishes/Arpeggi," "All I Need," and "Jigsaw Falling Into Place" (coincidentally used by Reich in his piece) - all have interesting harmonic progressions that I feel are characteristic of both Radiohead and Reich."
