LCD Soundsystem Composes Nike Jogging Anthem

LCD Soundsystem Composes Nike Jogging Anthem

According to Pitchforkmedia.com, post-punk electronic auteur James Murphy, aka LCD Soundsystem, has composed a 45-minute song to accompany workouts at the request of Nike. The song, titled "45:33," will be available for download on iTunes through the Nike+ store for $9.99. Murphy was apparently inspired by the prospect of producing a piece that deviated from the more marketable pop song format, similar to the longer work he had done while remixing Gorillaz and UNKLE as DFA.
