Mash-Ups!
Just in time for Valentine's (Ok, I'm a little late. Your consolation is that it's a massive post).Mash-Ups. What da drilly yo? Songs that should never be put together have unnatural coitus and a bastard song pops out...that's a mash-up. Sometimes the mashes are scarier than the alien-baby from Eraserhead. But once in a while, the mash really works.
I think this is one such example. Even if you don't like it, it's still worth hearing for the curiosity factor.
Dunproofin' - MIA vs. JAMC - Galang Reverence
I'd like to hear from you which ones you like!
- Others available on the web:
- Kylie vs. Massive Attack - Slow Angel
Kylie's vocals mesh well. - Radio Ga Ga vs. Queen - NY At Last
Wow, sounds like a bona fide 80s release. - Le Tigre vs. Missy E - Deceptafreak
One of my favorite mash-ups. - B-52s vs. Snoop - Rock It Like It's Lobster
This one is just plain strange. - Ciara feat. Missy E vs. Coconut Monkeyrocket - Stepping On Explosives
No comment. - Dizzee Rascal vs. Prodigy - Stand Up Fool
Damn, this mash-up is slammin'! - Blur vs. Beyonce - Naughty Dover Girl
This one mashes together extremely well. Must be heard to be believed. - Golden Boy feat. Miss Kittin vs. P.J. Harvey and Thom Yorke vs. Corey Hart vs. Human League - The Night Of Kittin's Messy Dream
I cannot comprehend such disparate elements forming a coherent whole.
Edwyn Collins vs. Chicks On Speed vs. John Wink - Wordy Girl
The Josh Wink sample is a little scary and unnecessary. Otherwise, this one is a precious little curiosity. - Devo vs. Missy E - Pass That Whip
Almost works, but Missy is slowed down too much here. You hear some speed slowing artifacts.
Usher vs. Queen - Usher Bites The Dust
This one is kinda boring. - 50 Cent vs. Joan Jett - I Love Da Club
Ditto. - U2 vs. Way Out West - Vertigo (Breaks Mix)
Starts out promising but does not succeed in the end. - Christina Aguilera vs. Velvet Underground vs. The Communards - Girl Wants (To Say Goodbye To) Rock and Roll
I don't know if I like this or hate this. It's very well done, especially the ending. But I'm sure Lou Reed would not approve. - Destiny's Child vs. Devo - Lose My Freedom
Well done again, but it's missing something. I think it's too fast. - Britney Spears vs. The O'Jays - Backstab Me One More Time
Wow, this mash's togetherness is uncanny. - Basement Boys - Hold Your Rendezvous Now
Beastie Boys vs. Basement Jaxx - Basement Boys - Check Your Red Rump
- Missy Elliott vs. Joy Division - Love Will Freak Us
I'm speechless. - Basement Jaxx vs. Missy E vs. Dee Lite - Groove Is A Bitch
This one almost works. - Ice Cube vs. Beck - Turntables Are Ice
Easy mash, and it works pretty well. - Jay-Z vs. GNR - Dirt Off Your Shoulder In Paradise City
Wow. - Lil' Kim vs. Commodores - Lil' Brick House
- Modest Mouse vs. Grandmaster Flash - Float On The Message
- G-Unit vs. Motley Crue - Shorty Wanna Feelgood
I don't think words can describe this unique experience. - Jay-Z vs. Nena - 99 Luft Problems
- Jay-Z vs. The Verve - Brush Off Your Bitter Sweet Shoulders Off
Damn, this mash holds together much better than I thought it would. - Unfortunately, my favorite mash is offline: DJ BC - The Flaming Lips vs. Snoop Dog - Yoshimi Battles Snoop Dogg. You may be able to find it somewhere out there.
MP3s were shamelessly culled from these sites. Much respect guys and gals. Your well-honed craft is tickling my ossicles.
