Spheres of Reflection: David Gilmour and The Orb's "Metallic Spheres" Reimagined, Listeners Invited to Remix Selections
Much has been made lately of Artificial Intelligence (AI), from the new "machine learning" program that made The Beatles' "Now and Then" and further stereo remixes of mono material possible, to the more eyebrow-raising applications proliferating around the media landscape.

Just Like Joe: Meek's "Tea Chest Tapes" Series Welcomes Heinz, Glenda Collins, More
In a short, tumultuous life and career, Joe Meek (1929-1967) moved pop into the space age with his innovative use of the studio. The producer-engineer experimented with overdubs, reverb, and sampling in an era when it wasn't commonplace; his 1962 composition and production of "Telstar" for The Tornados became the first record by a British rock-and-roll band to reach No. 1 on the U.S. Hot 100. The Ivor Novello Award winner crossed musical paths with such artists as Tom Jones, Petula Clark,

Greatest Hits Watch: New Compilations Coming from Bush, The Blasters and Johnny Marr
