The Mash Tape Vol.1 + Back to School Minimix

Hooray. I think I’ve posted enough mashups by now to justify a little mix-tape comp of sorts. Not all of them are in it, just my favorites and those that I thought would work well together, in one glorious continuously mixed shot of an mp3. Also included is a “Back to School Minimix” for you to blare loud enough to drown out the awkward “Oh HEY! So…. how was your summer? Yeah, mine too. Ready for classes?”. Not to mention a little intro mash thing made just for this mixtape. I know, I know, you can barely contain your excitement. Well, you can grab that thing-kind-of-thing here:

Intro Action (Yo Majesty vs. Justice vs. Mary Lou Retton)

And the whole shebang in .zip form riiiiiight here:

Mash Tape Vol. 1 + BK2SCHLMNMX

Oh, and in case you’re wondering, PBR Street Gang is my DJ name I guess. As opposed to my blogging name. This will undoubtedly result in massive confusion and my mp3s being lost in your iTunes forever. Well, if they made it there in the first place then I guess I’m doing alright. Later.

Big posts mean big…

… mashups. So here goes with the “two posts a week” thing. Here’s to me not running out of crap to put up here. Anyway, about this next mashup:

a) No I am not on Vampire Weekend’s collective dick like so many others seem to be. Has anyone here listened to Paul Simon?

b) I do, however, enjoy them. Sue me. I think they’re pretty good. Don’t hate.

c) I know the last mashup I posted involved Missy Elliot, but so does this one. Deal with it.

Get Y/UR A-Punk On (Missy Elliot vs. Vampire Weekend)

d) What the hell, I might as well get this off my chest in one fell post. Here’s the last of the Missy-ups (for now).

She\’s A Lotus (Missy Elliot vs. Flying Lotus)

Note: If you’re a fan of J Dilla, Madlib, Oh No, or anything that is beautiful in this world, please check out Flying Lotus. And then join my letter writing campaign urging him to collaborate with MF Doom.

So those are the mashups for this post. Here’s the part of the post where I give you a song two songs that I like.

Crystal Castles- Good Time

and

Danger- 11h30

I really wish I knew how to make vocals sound like that. +56 points for the unapologetically epic intro.

The Sophomore Effort (Therefore I Mash)

I think I might start posting more often than just weekly. Maybe even, like, two times a week. Well, we’ll see. Until then, here’s another mashup.

I Turn Missy Elliot On (Spoon vs. Missy Elliot, Ludacris)

Besides that, this song has pretty much been playing any time I’ve driven anywhere in the past week.

The Glimmers- Esta Si, Esta No (Asi Me Gusta A Mi)
