James Murphy, of LCD soundsystem, has teamed up with US Open to turn tennis matches in to music. A computer programme has been created that will instantly convert data from matches in to sounds to create a piece of music. The producer of the latest Arcade Fire album is expecting to record over 400 hours worth of music over the course of the tournament. He says, "speed, ace, fault, double fault and second serve would be one instrument." The following piece of music was from Andy Murray's second round match against Matthias Bachinger. This clip is originally from Drive on Friday 29 August.
