Red Hot Chili Peppers' Flea was influenced by touring with Radiohead singer Thom Yorke. The bassist played with the British singer in supergroup Atoms for Peace - which also included punk singer Patti Smith and Gorillaz frontman Damon Albarn - and said it really helped broaden his musical horizon.
"It influenced me being around Thom. He's an unbelievably great musician and a beautiful man. He's so pure as an artist. It's less that I would try to copy him and more that just being around someone who channels really powerful energy is beneficial. It's a relationship I will always hope to nurture."

Singer-and-actor Justin Timberlake spends 14 hours at a time in the recording studio. The 30 year-old penned some tracks with British star Jessie J, and the "Do It Like a Dude" hitmaker was astonished by his work ethic.
"When he's in the studio, he is in the studio. We would literally spend 14 hours in there and not leave. I would be like, 'Where is the toilet please? I'm going to wet myself."

Linkin Park Back in the Studio
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Artist News, Collaborations, Upcoming Releases, Pop, Rock,
Linkin Park have started on the follow up to A Thousand Suns with Rick Rubin. The "Shadow of the Day" group have "been in the studio writing" with the legendary producer, coming up with new ideas and revisiting material they started during sessions for their last album in 2010.
"Typically we'll have a once a week meeting to go listen to the songs that they're coming up with and talk about them. For so early in the project, they are much further along than they have been on the last two albums we did. On A Thousand Suns there were still a lot of irons in the fire. We knew, 'OK, we can't do this forever. Let's leave this batch and we'll come back and address it when we start up again," Rick said.
Linkin Park recently headlined Download festival in the UK, although their set did not feature any new material.

Ne-Yo Hopes to Collaborate With Beyonce
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Artist News, Collaborations, Upcoming Releases,
Ne-Yo has been "talking" to Beyonce about doing a duet. The "So Sick" hitmaker - who is currently working on his fifth album Love and Passion, which will be released in September - has a number of collaborations in the works but has no confirmed singles coming out with big-named stars.
"There's a couple of people who I might be collaborating with on the next album, I don't know exactly who right now, but I've talked to a couple of people, Chris Brown and Dr. Dre, Beyonce about some stuff. But nothing is set in stone right now."
In addition, the 31-year-old singer - who penned Beyonce's hit single "Irreplaceable" - also has a soft spot for UK artists, including troubled singer Amy Winehouse.
"What do I like most about the UK? The weather! No, no, I like the vibe out here. It's a really cool vibe. I really like Plan B or Amy Winehouse and Adele."

Adam Levine and Christina Aguilera have recorded a duet together.
The singer and the Maroon 5 frontman are set to unveil the track, "Moves Like Jagger," on talent show The Voice - in which they are both judges - on Tuesday. Adam explained it was "great" working with the 30-year-old beauty, and he admitted he's looking forward to debuting the song.
"We are excited to perform it for our fans on The Voice this Tuesday and on the road this summer. The guys and I recorded this track in Los Angeles last month and it was great getting to work with Christina on it as well."
Adam recently admitted the pair - who sit alongside Cee Lo Green and Blake Shelton on the TV show's panel - row "like brother and sister" on the show: "They fabricate a lot of that - a lot of that's reality television fodder. She's fine, we bicker like brother and sister."
