Digital Digest: Flaming Lips, Battles, Wilco and more

Producer Will|12:00 UK time, Friday, 9 September 2011

I’ve run out of ways to describe Wayne Coyne and The Flaming Lips – what you need to know is they are recording a 6-hour song and your name can be in it for $100. Don’t believe me – go to Some Kind of Awesome.

There are a lot of new videos up:

• Gary Tweeted about it on Friday during the show, and now the video featuring Mr Numan with Battles for My Machine is up to watch on YouTube.

• Justice’sAudio, Video, Disco has found pictures on Daily Motion.

• The Ash Eliza Smith directed video for Love Ink’s cover of David Essex’s Rock On is on YouTube.

• Wilco’s video for Born Aloneon YouTube.

• While Jeff Tweedy has covered the Black Eyed Peas', I Got a Feeling.
