History of origin

In 2009, the band members met to perform songs from Thom Yorke's album The Eraser . After the tour ended in 2010, the band spent three days jamming and making sound recordings. Yorke described his role in the jam sessions as "conducting," showing the band electronic music he had composed and then re-playing it on live instruments. Thom Yorke and producer Nigel Godrich edited and arranged the recordings of the jam sessions over a period of two years.
