Today's Morning Edition music is from Modest Mouse with "Ansel," a track from the new album "Strangers to Ourselves." The album was released this week.
In conjunction with the album, the band has also launched a fun new interactive website. It's called the "Strangers Linguistic Remix Generator."
You type in a phrase and an algorithm picks samples from the album to go with the words. It also analyzes the sentiment of the text to determine the beats per minute and the images you see.
