Digital Digest: MJ's jacket, Radiohead's remixes, Apple's iCloud and more

Martin Rushent, the producer who worked with Fleetwood Mac, T-Rex, the Stranglers and most famously the Human League'sDon't You Want Me? has sadly passed away. Aged 63, a number of sites including Contact Music and Pitchfolk have tributes to him. 

Radiohead are releasing a series of remixes as 12” singles. It has already been announced Flying Lotus will cast his web over some of the tracks from King of Limbs, though this latest announcement has confirmed Caribou (Little by Little) and Jacques Greene (Lotus Flower) will be the first producers to take on the Oxford band’s latest work. Clash have more.



And speaking of Flying Lotus, his track Do the Astral Plane is the opening track on a Warp sampler which can be downloaded for free via Amazon. The 10-song collection also features production from Bibio, Hudson Mohawke and Jamie Lidell.



As expected, Apple announced their iCloud – the service which allows users to stream all their iTunes purchases via Apple devices. Steve Jobs also announced iMatch, which for $24.99 annually, means users can have their iTunes library scanned and matched with music in the iTunes store which can subsequently be streamed.
