Circle of Fifths is fantastic, but I am going nuts not being able to identify a guitar part in "Want it All", starts at 2:02. Does anyone have a sample list, or failing that, a better memory than mine to identify the song it comes from?

theEZkill posted:So I got all the Girl Talk, Smash Bros, E-603, Easter Egg, LudaChrist, and Outlaws albums. 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. http://www.myspace.com/speakymusic edit: beaten on the Milkman suggestion, but I hope this reinforces the opinion to find his music.

You should find every other interview he has done and then construct all your questions from the words and phrases of his previous interviewers.

a milk crime posted:Okay, this came out the other week. DJ Cable and Yasmin did a mashup of 160 hip hop songs in five minutes for Annie Mac's BBC Radio 1 show This is almost difficult to listen to. Because it uses so many samples it doesn't fall into any solid groove for longer than a couple of seconds, which is already a flaw with a lot of the ADD style mashups but at least most times you can get a good half-minute of tight grooving before it moves on. It's clever technically but as a song is not very good. It's the sweep-picking teenage bedroom guitarist of mashups.

JustLikeMe posted:I know this hasn't been discussed for many pages now, but I've been listening to Milkman's Algorithms quite a bit recently and its grown on me so, so much. When it was released I was pretty underwhelmed and in retrospect I have no idea why. Phenomenal album. Algorithms is one of my favourite albums ever, so many great moments and a real high point to end his mashup career on. The bass drum in Every Night is so drat fat, so fun to bounce around to.

I don't listen to commercial radio anywhere and I had to start skipping tracks around midway through the album. Normally if I have slutwave-filled mashups playing I can justify them by saying "yeah but listen to how it contrasts with that beat" or "the sample is totally changed in this context" but with this album I can't differentiate between the tracks playing and what I hear blasting out of passing cars or in TV promos. I'm going to listen to Algorithms again instead.

Bad Apollo is great but I think it relies a bit heavily on pitch shifting to make some of the elements fit together better, and the resulting chipmunk voices give the tracks an almost novelty value. I agree though that a lot of releases are sounding increasingly stale as all the popular samples are repeatedly recycled, and the use of current pop music causes a mashup to lose a lot of impact for me because much of the appeal is recognition of a musical element in the track and how it interplays with another sample and it's not as entertaining if I don't know the source material in the least. Are there many mashups of people mixing their own work with existing songs? I think milkman did throw some of his own work in to his last couple of albums and they turned out really well.

Yeah I haven't enjoyed any mashups for some time because a lot of current pop music is used and I am entirely unfamiliar with prettymuch anything that's been in the commercial charts for years. What I consider to be "classic" mashup albums like the first two Girl Talk and 2nd & 3rd Milkman albums still had a lot of stuff I hadn't heard before but it was usually contrasted with several well-known riffs or beats so it worked well for keeping the songs fresh. Last Weird Al album fell flat for me for the same reason, the parody songs didn't work because I wasn't aware of the source music in the first place and secondly the songs being parodied don't sound that good to me anyway.

That was incredible, that mix has been one of my favourite audio recordings since it was released and this has only made it better. Perfect visual accompaniment to a classic album.

The 10 second Friends track made me bust out laughing and got an instant repeat.

Same, that mix is incredible and is the definitive version of most of the tracks inside as far as my musical memory is concerned. The video is icing on the cake, and neatly provides a bookend to the era of audio collages that it practically created. RIP Mashups 2002-2014

Juanito posted:Wow, I'm really enjoying this guy. Reminds me of listening to Girl Talk for the first time. Yeah same, a lot of the transitions are very GT and there's a heap of great samples that aren't overplayed. I really like this artist, it's good to see this sort of music still viable after what was prettymuch a hard crash a few years back. Maybe the mashup scene needs a decade between resurgences so the sample bank has time to replenish. edit: still listening, Girl Talk vibes so hard, this is awesome.
