Each release in the
Rockabye Baby!
series takes the best-known songs of a particular artist and places them in a
lullaby
processor that involves chimes, bells, and vibraphones -- renditions that are slightly more involved than the music that comes out of the average baby mobile. Whether the original versions are heavy and aggressive or light and subdued, these
versions are uniformly appropriate for their purpose. And, in some cases, they even happen to tease out an unlikely amount of melodicism not apparent in the originals. The
Radiohead
volume features versions of
"Everything in Its Right Place,"
"Karma Police,"
"Knives Out,"
"Subterranean Homesick Alien,"
"Paranoid Android,"
and
"Sail to the Moon."
What, no
"Morning Bell"
or
"Go to Sleep"
