Tokit posted:Here you go. I listened to this and decided to jot down a few notes as I did so. Some of the advice is pretty subjective to my taste in mashup's and you might not agree with some of it. I have a tenuous grasp on the work that goes into making mashups, so if any of this is stupid, forgive me: Starts out a bit bland but gets pretty good once A Milli and Come Sail Away start up. I also really like Soldier Boy and California. Could’ve done more with California, Wonderwall and Bitches Ain't poo poo – I realize you revisit Bitches Ain't poo poo later but I think it works so well with both of these songs that I’d like to hear more of it on both of them. Maybe some verses if they work. Use more rap verses and less repetition. This is entirely my opinion as far as what I prefer to hear in mashups, but I know that when I hear a particularly compatible pair of samples + rap hooks or whatever, I want to hear a verse as well, obviously allowing that it works with whatever the other sample is. Ayo Technology + Gotta Stay High Maybe you could mix Ayo Technology a bit louder and work on the transistion to with Paper Planes and Mr Roboto, it's kind of rough I think. Baba O’Riley + Benny Benassi is awesome Justice mashup is so/so at first but gets better Stuntin Like My Daddy is well executed, but maybe another backing sample at some point, gets a bit eh towards the end Maybe less beat on Geto Boys section? I dunno I'm just guessing what might sound good here. During the Move Bitch with the whistling, could you possibly integrate the original beat as well? The whistling seems pretty close to the flute in it. Hell yes on the Dschingis Khan sample + fresh prince, I’d like to hear more of Fresh Prince over that sample before you change it, the second backing sample is the weakest for all the fresh prince section, in my opinion, but the rest of it is great. From here to about where Throw Some D’s starts was alright but nothing caught my attention. Nothing would’ve been jarring enough to make me stop dancing though Throw Some D’s was alright, but I’ve heard it in so many mashups it’s getting old. Anyway I liked quite a bit of it, but there were a few sections that didn't really do that much for me, and a couple that I just didn't like. Overall though it was good.
