Dj-ing and activism … it’s no surprise, right? So much of the music that DJs spin has its roots in protest. The latest example took place on Sunday. As part of Greenpeace UK’s People’s March for Climate ahead of the climate talks in Paris this week, Thom Yorke put on a show to remember.
Originally the frontman for Radiohead, Yorke has been dj-ing for a while. He has long been an activist fighting for human rights, the environment, fair trade and anti-war initiatives.
Listen to some sound bites from the March here. Here he is at the Boiler Room. What do you think of his set?
