Primavera Sound
Primavera Sound (commonly referred to as simply Primavera) is an annual music festival held in Parc del Fòrum in Barcelona, Spain that takes place between the end of May and beginning of June.

The National Anthem (Radiohead Song)
"The National Anthem" is a song by the English rock band Radiohead, released on their fourth album, ''Kid A'' (2000). The song is moored to a repetitive bassline, and develops in a direction influenced by jazz. Background and recording Radiohead's singer, Thom Yorke, wrote the "National Anthem" bassline when he was 16. In 1997, Radiohead recorded drums and bass for the song, intending to develop it as a B-side for their third album, ''OK Computer'' (1997). Instead, they saved it for their next album, ''Kid A'' (2000). Yorke played bass on the studio recording. Jonny Greenwood added Ondes Martenot and sampled sounds from radio stations, and Yorke's vocals were processed with a ring modulator. In November 1999, Radiohead recorded a brass section inspired by the "organised chaos" of ''Town Hall Concert'' by the jazz musician Charles Mingus. Yorke and Greenwood directed the musicians to sound like a "traffic jam"; according to Yorke, he jumped up and down so much during his condu ...
