Mash Ups

[StevieBee]

There's some cleaver sods out there.

How can you blend AC/DC, Led Zep, Queen, Crowded House and the Beatles into one song?

Check it out

[evilmunkey]

dj z-trip is pretty much the king of doing this stuff, mixing things like pat bennatars love is a battlefield with things like passing me by by the pharcyde. if you can check out his uneasy listening series.

[Mojooo]

AWhat is the guitar track that starts at 3:07 - I assuem it is crowded hosue or outkast as I knwo all of the other songs.

[jds32]

Yeah its crowded house.

[Chimune]

not seen many but i absolutely love these by wax audio:
Thunder Busters (AC/DC vs Ghostbusters)
and
Stayin' Alive In The Wall (Pink Floyd vs Bee Gees)

[Seeker UK]

Go Home Productions do some good stuff

Smells Like Rockin' Robin (Nirvana vs Jackson 5)

Finally Did You No Wrong (Sex Pistols vs CeCe Peniston)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=do3ZcYN7bVI


The one that prolly started the whole thing, "Get Ur 9lb Cock On" by Jacknife Lee (Missy Elliot vs The Strokes)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wnq1KEtXPkk


Freelance Hairdresser is less serious - "Bring the Bean Bag" (Public Enemy vs Herb Alpert & the Tijuana Brass)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dBs_owaJRXI

Eternal Spades (Motorhead vs KLF)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-qz6KUegSM8


But probably the best 2 in this Genre are:

Soundhog his "Take it Easy, Marvin"
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DoramcVbEWA

And Futuro's "Breathe With Me Till Dawn" (Pink FLoyd vs Judy Tzuke)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ptY6u7q7v7M

Gary Numan v Sugababes, Are Freaks Electric (Are Friends Electric vs Freak Like Me). Clearly it helps that the second track is a direct derivative of the first anyway, but even as an oldschool Numan fan I still love it.

Benn loving mashups for a while now. Gary Numan one is great, also the ACDC/Ghostbusters one has been a fav for ages.
Used to download them from Youtube and put into a CD when I was taxi-driving.
The Saturday night pissheads loved them.

Another to try is Smalltown Stranger-Madonna v Bronski Beat. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AGbvcB6-bwA

My fav is Nirvana v Dead or Alive http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-EmnNRw-cHE mash by DJ Faroff.
Check DJ Faroff website for some cracking mashups.

[realjv]

There is some good stuff on Stereogums formerly annual MySplice albums
http://www.stereogum.com/category/mysplice/
Band of Horses / Guns n Roses & Taylor Swift (shudder) / U2 mashes work particularly well.

[NBTBRV8]

If you are in to more contempory stuff, check out the Yacht Club DJs. Their mash ups are excellent.

Was going to mention this, as it's been played to death in our house. Love the variety and the fact it lasts a good hour plus. Shame it's not on vinyl, but that would kind of disrupt the flow. One of the best mash-ups ever in my opinion.

Sgt Pepper's Paradise (Beatles vs Guns N Roses)

Smells Like Bootylicious (Beyonce vs Nirvana)

That's a good one

One of the best I come across - Judas Airbourne: You Got Another Thing Runnin' (Judas Priest: You Got Another Thing Comin' / Airbourne: Running Wild) - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_34tOlXyVn0

[irocfan]

another thread to save!! I've not seen it mentioned here but the GreenDay/Travis/Eminem/Aerosmith mashup of Boulevard of Broken Dreams is (IMO) great
