Nemone sits in

Nemone sits in for Lauren Laverne and talks to James Murphy about LCD Soudsystem's final gig and their documentary Shut Up and Play the Hits.

On April 2nd 2011, LCD Soundsystem played its final show at Madison Square Garden. LCD frontman James Murphy had made the conscious decision to disband one of the most celebrated and influential bands of its generation at the peak of its popularity, ensuring that the band would go out on top with the biggest and most ambitious concert of its career. James Murphy joins Nemone to talk about "Shut Up and Play the Hits" which has been described as both a narrative film documenting this once in a lifetime performance; and an intimate portrait of him as he navigates the lead-up to the show, the day after, and the personal and professional ramifications of his decision.

Plus, Nemone welcomes in the weekend with all the latest movie news in Friday Film Club and Memory Tapes features five top songs taken from a listener's old and much loved mixtape. And, some brilliant free music in MPFree.
