Mashup Madness!!!

Let me start off-topic by saying that I hope everyone is watching the Super Bowl today. Everyone also better be rooting for the Steelers and the Bus because Matt Hasselbeck and the Seahawks suck. (Note: I am bitter because they beat my Redskins in the divisional playoffs. Then again, at least the 'Skins QB has a full, blooming, gorgeous mane of hair. Matt Hasselbeck doesn't.) But I digress.. Who doesn't like mashups? Honestly? I mean, hearing Marvin Gaye sing to Eminem's Lose Yourself has to be at least worth laughing at. But every once in a while, a DJ realizes that two songs can actually blend well together and combines them, creating a love child that is properly known as a mashup. I have been searching the web for months trying to organize a list of hundreds of mashups. Most of them are complete garbage but I have searched through all of them for you and pulled out the gems. I share them with you today. Note: I will be organizing the songs in two categories: actually good mashups and ridiculously absurd mashups. Enjoy. Quality Mashups: Golden Peace Frog - Jurassic 5 vs. The Doors Can I Kick it Like That? - A Tribe Called Quest vs. Pharrell [download or die] Somebody Stole Your Beat - Divide & Kreate (Bloc Party vs. The Killers) Decepta-Freak-On - Missy Elliott vs. Le Tigre Yoshimi Battles Snoop Dogg - The Flaming Lips vs. Snoop Dogg Ridiculous Mashups: Kanye Mahna - Kanye West vs. Mahna Mahna (from the Muppets) [download or die] Beethoven's Fifth Gold Digger - Kanye West vs. Beethoven's Fifth Let's Dance With Me - David Bowie vs. Hot Hot Heat Paranoid Teeth Attack - The Faint vs. Obie Trice If you enjoyed any of these songs and would like to hear the other couple hundred I've got, just leave a comment or send me an e-mail (allthingsgoblog@gmail.com). Also, if you are the creator of one of these mashups and don't want them up here, let me know and I will take them down. -Zack

I feel that you could mash up any song, or sound for that matter, to Deceptacon and it would sound awesome

Great list... I especially like the Snoop Dog track. My favourite mashups come from DJ Earworm. The Night of Miss Kittin's Messy Dream and We Need a War top the list. GREAT BLOG!
