in this film i take a look at radiohead’s gear in the typical pedal partners way, exploring the sociological impact of the bands music & the gear they’ve used over the years. in this video i look at gear all the way from the band’s inception in the 90s, through albums like ‘pablo honey,’ ‘the bends’ & ‘ok computer’ through to the band’s groundbreaking music in the 21st century: ‘kid a,’ ‘in rainbows,’ ‘a moon shaped pool’ & more. i’ll look at what jonny greenwood has being using for guitar as the smile live, as well as gear used by the band’s other guitarists thom yorke & ed’obrien. in this video we explore jonny greenwood’s pedalboard, jonny greenwood’s guitar tone, ed o’brien’s pedalboard, ed o’brien’s guitar tone & thom yorke’s pedalboard. this is a great video for those looking to get the radiohead guitar tone & learn all about radiohead’s guitar pedals & radiohead’s pedalboards. all music & visuals are an original production by pedal partners. all rights reserved, 2023.

[@patchiezero]

5 months late but fuck, you deserve 10m subs the quality is impecable great job team keep gazing

[@pedalpartners]

ayyy thank you we just out here gazing

[@patchiezero]

@@pedalpartners would love to have yours guys pedal too sadly its unavailable loved the sounds

[@danielhaed]

Your videos is a pure art! My favorite radiohead songs is "Let Down" and "How to Disappear Completely", but I like more listening the whole albums of them, especially "Kid A"

[@pedalpartners]

thank you! ☺ yep, me too. i struggle to listen to singles, full albums tend to be the way!

[@skipper6528]

I float down the Liffey!!

[@sherwintavarez8539]

Ed is one of the most underrated guitarists oat

[@pedalpartners]

yep

[@raulfigueroa588]

Agree, we often praise shredders but pedal/tone/texture masters need to be appreciated just as much. What they do is often much harder to replicate and execute

[@ioncewasmikey]

​@@raulfigueroa588I got no interest in shredders unless it's the one fighting the Ninja Turtles

[@Toddcleave]

LOL no he's not, he's well enough recognised.

[@RJValdes09]

I love in rainbows. weird fishes and bodysnatchers are my fav radiohead tracks

[@pedalpartners]

in rainbows is great, check out scotch mist if you haven't

[@blakewicklein8571]

No Surprises is my favorite, the simple arpeggio's are just so beautiful and have influenced my playing so much.

[@pedalpartners]

a classic

[@LightningJosue]

Go to sleep, Palo Alto, Blow out, and Knives out

[@coreyrenstrom]

I love the album hail to the thief There, there. Where I end and you begin. Sail to the moon. The whole album is so rad.

[@pedalpartners]

great album (but all of them are) ;)

[@ezrashanti]

HTTT my fav too

[@JohnWoodcatOld]

My space echo is the RE-20, nice little pedal, one of the first ones I got when I was trying to recreate the Radiohead sound in my music.

[@pedalpartners]

we love the re-20, the 20 series pedals are all really cool. you should check out the dd-20 as well if you haven't.

[@JohnWoodcatOld]

@@pedalpartners I really want a DD-20 as well, I know Interpol uses them and I love their sound but alas there’s no room on my board

[@Toroidalzpe]

Top notch content

[@pedalpartners]

cheers geezer!

[@devinklanderson]

I’ve always been drawn to Motion Picture Soundtrack, Life in a Glass House, or Spinning plates.

[@rorschach1]

My favorite Radiohead songs are Airbag, Jigsaw falling into place, and My Iron Lung

[@pedalpartners]

great picks brian!

[@assortedstitches]

truly love lemon, my favorite citrus to use while playing

[@alvarodeathstarr]

its crazy how treefingers was made all by guitars

[@pedalpartners]

love treefingers

[@Zoo719]

Bodysnatchers, The National Anthem , and True Love Waits are my top 3 right now, but it changes depending on my mood. They have too many good songs haha.

[@pedalpartners]

i'm the same tbh, i've been leaning more into the kid a material recently

[@jumpingman8160]

Pyramid Song There there Morning Bell (amnesiac) You and whose army Knives out

[@pedalpartners]

great picks, go check out the slowed down version of pyramid song if you haven't already

[@jumpingman8160]

@@pedalpartners I have. I prefer Lynch's slow down Bethoven in Twin Peaks

[@accult]

i love 'blow out' by radiohead

[@pedalpartners]

yes, great song!

[@bassdrummer9849]

Love that one too! Imo their most shoegaze like song

[@michelvondenhoff9673]

My fav pedals are Boss RE-20 (space echo & reverb, echo as reverb can be used indepently of eachother) and Warm Audio Jet Phaser (phaser & fuzz if desired).

[@gcleeter2261]

Just is my favourite

[@mestayno]

okay I had to hit the like at the lemon part

[@Bewar3them00n]

I’m pretty sure I saw Jonny Greenwood using a Korg Kaoss pad to create the glitch effect on the Jools Holland show

[@pedalpartners]

yeah jonny uses a korg kaoss & a computer for max/msp glitching, very cool to have these max/msp glitches in pedal form now!

[@dbkarp]

kaoss pad is to glitch thom's vocals on Everything In Its Right Place (tho Nigel did that on a computer on the album). for guitar stuff on Go to Sleep and 2+2=5 he uses max/msp on his laptop.

[@pedalpartners]

@@dbkarp mini glitch is based on the max/msp glitching see 5:41

[@IndieRocknRollRadio]

Paranoid Android; just is the best, full stop.

[@bapharom]

full stop (pun intended)

[@cactus-mcjacktus]

idk what my top 3 songs would be, but Packt Like Sardines In A Crushd Tin Box would be #1. probably something from The Bends at #2. Airbag, Subterranean Homesick Alien, The National Anthem, Optimistic, Bangers + Mash or 15 Step could be #3.

[@pedalpartners]

it's too hard to pick right!

[@henryhayth3303]

My Radiohead song is probably "Nude" or "In Limbo".

[@pedalpartners]

both great tracks :)

[@alexyoungbased]

Mini glitch is great, but infinite jets might do it a little bit better!

[@pedalpartners]

i have both, the mini glitch is more musical to my ears & a lot more affordable!

[@davemish4163]

Kevin Shields allegedly used a Shredmaster. What do you think of the Oxford Drive for MBV style distortion?

[@pedalpartners]

yes, i believe he did. i think it can work for that sound, even better for radiohead stuff. never had a drive get so close to their sound, i actually did a take playing 'electioneering' but kept it out as we try to avoid covers! probably prefer oxford drive over the og shredmaster, really love the voice & diode switches. asymmetrical (mix of both diodes) is my favourite setting.

[@shaneliddy7315]

Airbag, iron lung, and India rubber

[@delivrance3961]

no space echo on my board...shame on me!!! btw, great job as always!!!

[@pedalpartners]

you should grab one!!!! thank you :)

Subterranean Homesick Alien

[@BrunoOfCanada]

What was running through the Microcosm and Infinite Jets to sound like that? Was it all guitar?

[@pedalpartners]

just guitar :)

[@BrunoOfCanada]

@@pedalpartners Wow.

[@pedalpartners]

@@BrunoOfCanada they're a lot of fun! here's some more videos on them kzbin.info/www/bejne/jnPJfIyma7WEmdU kzbin.info/www/bejne/gaW7dGWwndyFg9kfeature=shared kzbin.info/www/bejne/q365YaaXhJ53htkfeature=shared

[@kurtcleary6794]

Literally not a single Radiohead riff in the whole thing?

[@pedalpartners]

we only play original compositions as i don't own the copyright to radiohead's music & find it more artistically fulfilling anyway :)

[@henryhayth3303]

Also, is it possible to hook a mini glitch up to a microphone? I feel like it would be good for some really lofi sounding stuff.

[@pedalpartners]

there's no xlr input but there are ways around it. i'd personally just hook it up to a vocal pedal, like one of the boss or tc ones & have mini glitch in chain.

[@LewWelchThePoet]

👍🏿🤘

[@pedalpartners]

thanks! 🩷
