Are you looking to expand your mashup collection, basically?

If so, the following websites are good places to start:
http://www.mashuptown.com
http://goodblimey.com/tunes
http://audioporncentral.com

Look through the old posts for collections/themes/sets/etc.
Mashuptown has a whole bigass page of links to individual DJs/artists. A+D, DJ Schmolli, DJ Earworm, Party Ben, and team9 are favorites of mine.

I think that the Milkman albums will fit into your collection rather nicely.
http://www.milkmanmusic.net/music.cfm

Speaky is also worth a listen, his relabeled Mashcore Vol 2 album was one of the more popular "leaks" right before Feed the Animals came out, and was not an unreasonable prospect if not for the sometimes low quality of the source matieral.

edit: beaten on the Milkman suggestion, but I hope this reinforces the opinion to find his music.

How exactly are these mashups created in the first place? I thought to edit out vocals and/or instrumentation you need a master track of the song. Is there a program that makes mashup stuff relatively easy?

Really? Are we talking about the same E-603? He's good, there's no doubt about it, but he's still trying to do the 'girltalk' thing but can only do it half as well. I think it's telling that he delayed 'Torn up' after 'Feed the Animals' came out.

I think that 'Something for Everyone' is a stronger album than 'Torn up', despite the lower production values. 'Torn Up' has an amazing opening track, and I think the album as a whole reaches moments of excellence. But the difference with Girltalk is that GT's mash-ups feel somewhat organic. Tracks just seem to 'go' together. For me he gets a lot that feels 'right', though I will admit there's a few mis-steps on 'Feed the Animals' but they're few and far between.

Creating an Accapella from a final track and an instrumental track is not that hard, but I have no idea how they seperate individual instruments in songs. That bit really confuses me.

I am an avid fan of Girl Talk's 3rd (Night Ripper) and 4th (Feed the Animals) album. So i checked out his 1st (Secret Diary) and 2nd (Unstoppable). It is quite interesting as they show progression from album to album, the first and second are far more mashup glitchy pop. With that said i have been enjoying his 2nd, Unstoppable alot but can't get into his first so much.

Recently got some E-603, very cool.

definitely feel the same way. i thought 'Torn Up' was great the first couple listens but now i'm already sick of it. the opening track is great but the rest just seems meh.

milkman's new album is good, up there with girltalk quality.

What do people recommend for GT 'Unstoppable fans? I like the cut up, dense, fractured sound and the pace. I thought Secret Diary and Nightripper were a bit slow, although still fantastic. Listening to Ludachrist and Super Mash Bros at the moment and it is close, but not quite there.

Edit: Actually Venetian Snares kind of sounds close.

You really can't do it. Sometimes it'll work, but most of the time that trick of inverting the left track and adding it to the left track just makes the track sound crazy.

Most people get the raw vox from singles/bootlegs. But failing that there's a lot you CAN do where the songs will naturaully line up and some creative production (mostly eqing) can make them sound really great together and not clash at all.

But most of the reason you'll hear the same older, popular rap over 30 different songs is because that's a song with an accapella of the vocal track is out there. Its nothing the individual remixers to.

There's a whole world of bleep blorps and sounds to explore. Check Kid 606s "The Action Packed Mentalist Brings You The loving Jams" or his shotgun wedding mix to see the mashup formula taken to an extreme. And then after that listen to more Kid 606 songs and just lose yourself in the breakcore and IDM worlds.

Milkman and Speaky are both phenomenal, thanks for those suggestions.

I've always been a fan of the people at Wax Audio, http://www.waxaudio.com.au/downloads/mashopolos

They're mashups aren't like GIrl Talk's, as they only mix 2 or 3 songs, but they are really great mixes and excellent quality. And plus, who doesn't like hearing Thunderstruck mixed with the Ghostbusters theme?

If you look around the site they have some other mixes as well, but Mashopolos 2007 is their best imo.

If you're looking for the 2- or 3-artist mixes, the "Best of Bootie" collections cover a lot of ground in the bastard pop field. They're a little uneven, but you are likely to find other DJ's worth your Googling time. They come from a bunch of worldwide mashup parties/club scenes and tend towards danceable pop and hip-hop. The most recent one is 2008's CD, but they go back to 2005 (other links at the bottom of that page) and you can either grab whole albums worth or just interesting single tracks.

Tanmania is loving insane, one of the big stumbling blocks for me with mashup music, especially with Girl Talk, is that it's too 'stoppy/starty', it doesn't flow very well because he uses too many samples. But this is practically seamless, most of it could easily be a album by a conventional band. This is really god drat gooooood.

I hope I never have to hear "Come on Eileen" in a mashup again though because i'm sick of it.

Most of it's for free on his last.fm page here but one track does not seem to be. I can happily host an existing uploaded version, but I can't upload my copy of the songs becuase I'm on, no poo poo, a 16KB/sec upload speed that counts towards a 12GB/month quota, so it'd take me ages and cost me a chunk of a day's internet usage.

If you find a zip file of it though I'm happy to rehost it.

edit: If you get all but track #2 I can host that I guess.

I did in fact snag that Tanmania of the 4105 Galaxy album from that link, just trying to find the Burning Apollo one. Tried a few links from the ancient GBS thread and even some torrents (again, my understanding is that it's not FILES), but I just can't track that one down.

Will update the thread if I can find it linked anywhere. :)

Cheers, thanks! I admit that I hadn't heard much along these lines until seeing Girl Talk play a show at our local Blues Festival (maybe a misnomer), and this thread has gone a long way to further my listening.

As far as albums go, I'm really liking what I've heard of the Girl Talk/tanner4105/e-603/Norwegian Recycling/Milkman material. The Bootie Blog is pretty key for interesting sounding songs, too, but something about those really dense mashups wins me over every time.

BearBot .. some of the singles are great and the BEARBOX MIXTAPE is amazing. I think the link is dead to the 2008 version.

Travis Barker and DJ AM came out with a Mixtape, it's okay at best but worth a listen. http://trvsdjam.com/blog/ . Personally I haven't made it all the way through though

Anyone know of some good M83 mashups? I just found Friendly Fires vs. M83 and hypem .. you can put Hasen with M83 and it would still be awesome.
