Kanye West 'Blows Up' Keane's Mixing Desk, Reworks Band's SingleDecember 1, 2008
 US rapper Kanye West blew up a mixing desk at a studio in Paris while he was playing Keane his new album.
West previewed '808s and Heartbreak' for the group after he had watched them perform in the French city. "What a strange week in the life of Keane,” Keane's keyboardist Tim Rice-Oxley wrote on the band's website. “Exactly a week ago I was sitting on the Eurostar in a half-sleep, having just played the last gig of our European tour in Paris, and then I spent the entire night in the studio with Kanye West. “He played us the whole of his new album, which sounded truly awesome - the bass was so fat that eventually the mixing desk blew up." West, who was in Paris on his Glow in the Dark European tour, also re-worked 'Spiralling', the lead single from Keane's latest album, Rice-Oxley revealed. "I was especially pleased when he picked out a line from 'Spiralling' ("When we fall in love, we're just falling in love with ourselves") as being a personal favourite, as it's my favourite line I've ever written. Hurrah,” he wrote. "Then Kanye did some work on one of our tracks, and after that I sat in a corner and watched him do his thing on a song for Jamie Foxx. "The whole thing was a real privilege and I learned a lot. I wish I had Kanye's energy...and his dress sense!" '808s and Heartbreak' charted at number eleven in the UK charts last weekend.
