Mark Ronson on New Projects and At the Drive-In: Video Interview and Radiohead Cover Footage Mark Ronson (of Bob Dylan remix and Amy Winehouse-producing fame) and his band hit New York’s Webster Hall Friday night with a crew of special guests that included Breaking Artist Santogold. Rock Daily cornered the British musician in his dressing room to get the latest on his upcoming projects and a window into his recording process. Click above to check out the interview, plus footage of Phantom Planet’s Alex Greenwald joining the band during soundcheck for a warm-up of their cover of Radiohead’s “Just.” And keep reading for our Six-Pack Interview with Ronson, where he reveals bands he’d like to cover next (the unlikely list includes At the Drive-In). What’s the most rock-star thing you’ve ever done? I know I did something really rock-star the other day, but I can’t remember what it was. Probably drugs. Who’s the most famous person you’ve ever met? Unfortunately George W. Bush, at the White House What’s on your current playlist? Richard Swift, I’m still listening to the Arcade Fire record because it’s amazing, and I like The Pipettes. When will it be time to retire? When I’m 52. What was your favorite album when you were fourteen? Appetite for Destruction. If you had to cover another song right now, what would it be? There’s good songs all the time, but I kind of wanted to do “Down In It” by Nine Inch Nails, from their first record. I like that song “Don’t You Evah” by Spoon. I wanted to do an At the Drive-In song too, but their stuff is so proggy and complicated, but I do love their first record.

The Pipettes Delay U.S. Debut ReleaseDespite the fact that the European version of the girl-pop band's debut came out ages ago, and the buzz surrounding their SXSW performances has already long dissipated, Cherry Tree/Interscope has delayed the domestic release of the

"We Are the Pipettes" by The PipettesThe Pipettes' debut album, We Are the Pipettes, was originally released in the United Kingdom back in the middle of 2006, resulting in a tidal wave of hype that carried over to American shores. The band, known for its stylish update of classic girl-group pop and its trio of adorable singers in polka dot frocks, garnered copious internet buzz, and the record became a hot item in import bins. It's tempting to suggest that a proper release of the album has come far too late in the United States, and that the Pipettes' momentum is already on the wane, but that assumption would have to be based on the insulting notion that the group's appeal is strictly limited to net-savvy hipsters. Not so! Every track on We Are the Pipettes gleams and sparkles with crisp string arrangements, groovy beats, slick harmonies and meticulously crafted melodies that appreciate with each listen, leaving tracks like "Pull Shapes," "ABC," and "One Night Stand" feeling like familiar

LISTEN UP: Some D-Licious Music You need more Christmas songs that rock. From Otis Redding to Johnny Cash to The Pipettes, Who Needs Radio? has them all. To celebrate The Rolling Stones and Madonna making more money than God in 2006, The Music Slut has some classic mp3's from both of them. Tenacious D thinks "The Goverment Totally Sucks." I don't know if You Can Take The Boy Out of Brooklyn agrees, but they have the mp3 of it anyway. You Ain't No Picasso has a great mix posted today, complete with tracks by Interpol, The Mag

LISTEN UP: iPhone Might Be Too Cool to Hang Out With MeApple's iPhone apparently has some good taste in music, sporting the likes of Beck, Lily Allen, Feist, and Nine Inch Nails, among others, in its newest commercial. I wonder if it'll also have my iPod's bizarre sense of humor and go out of its way to play the same three Dinosaur Jr. songs every time I put it on shuffle. (Music For Kids Who Don't Read Good) Extrawack! has an interview with Vince DiFiore, the trumpet player from Cake, along with an mp3 of the band covering Black Sabbath's "War Pigs." Next up on their series of exclusive interviews: the dude from Mighty Mighty Bosstones who only dances. The weather forecast for the East Coast is looking awfully Nico-ey for the next couple days. Prepare your tunes accordingly. (Art Decade) I think listening to The Pipettes and Smoosh back to back might be intensely sugary enough to actually give someone diabetes. In a good way, of course. (Information Leafblower) Finally, Pittsburgh's own Gregg Gillis - aka Girl Talk - throws down this ridiculous remix of a Tokyo Police Club song. I haven't been this proud of a band from my hometown since Rusted Root did that Peter Bjorn & John remix. Man, now I'm kind of wishing that were real. (I Guess I'm Floating)
