Paul McCartney insists he’s not going to write anymore new songs. Totally fine with us, Paul. Totally fine. [NME]

(VIA TECHNO & DUBSTEP) Daft Punk will be releasing a Random Access Memories deluxe box set which will cost $275. I guess Dubstep and I will be working overtime the next couple of weeks.
