Dutch contemporary dance company Nederlands Dans Theater (NDT) is now showing a Radiohead-inspired piece. “Proof,” which is choreographer Edward Clug’s first piece for NDT, is part of the theater’s touring program Side A: Split into One. You can watch two previews of “Proof,” which features The King of Limbs’s “Feral,” below. “Radiohead is more than just my favorite band; they are the soundtrack to my other side,” Clug says. “Listening to them feels like I’m finding a self that I haven’t met yet.”

Radiohead recently released a brand-new music video for a long-lost song called “Lift”—the track was released as part of their 20-year anniversary reissue OKNOTOK along with “I Promise” and “Man of War.”

Earlier this year, Sufjan Stevens scored the New York City Ballet’s The Decalogue for choreographer Justin Peck.
