In a statement on Radiohead's official website, he said: 'You may have heard that I have a new project called Atoms For Peace.
'The name comes from some shows of The Eraser that happened a couple of years ago with Mauro, Joey, Nigel and Flea.
'We got a big buzz from them and discovered loads of energy from transforming the music from electronic to live, and so afterwards, we carried on for a few days in the studio and decided to make it a loose, ongoing thing.'
He added a 12-inch vinyl version of Default would be released next month and 'an album will eventually follow that next year'.
