From Toronto producer Coins.
There isn’t going to be any more new Beastie Boys music unless we get some version of Hot Sauce Committee Part One. As a longtime Beasties fan, I’m not sure that has really sunk in yet. But it’s where we’re at. Apart from the odd collaboration like Mike D on Cassius’ ‘Action’ (he also recently… Read more »

Seanh2k11 is the man responsible for this smooth blend. Sadevillian is a mashup album (although people try not to use that term anymore it seems) that takes the raps of MF DOOM and the music of smooth R&B queen Sade and blends them together. And it works surprisingly well. Check out the 7-tracks below or… Read more »

Thanks/Apologies to Aubrey Drake Graham and Sufjan Stevens.
Sufjan and Drake aren’t artists who come into each other’s orbit often. Despite that, this Tumblr has written a 20 Chapter fan fiction account of the pair’s romantic relationship with titles like “sufjan writes a diss track” and “drake and sufjan fight at cheesecake”. Now those same industrious folks Riveyoncé Cuoknowles have put together a… Read more »

Katharine Philippa is one of my favourite Irish artists and one of the most talented I’ve seen play live. She’s created an excellent mashup cover before this one takes four of Bieber’s songs from his new album Purpose, ‘What Do You Mean’ / ‘Love Yourself’ / ‘I’ll Show You’ / ‘Sorry’ and turns it into… Read more »

We’ve had the Ghostface Killah vs African Highlife mashup album. Now, it’s De La’s turn as they are paired up with Afrobeat legend Fela Kuti by Gummy Soul’s Amerigo Gazaway. Fela Soul is a very listenable 33 minute mix of mashups over 8-tracks. Listen and download below: Fela Soul by Amerigo Gazaway of Gummy Soul

The full album version of Wugazi, the surprisingly good mashup album of Fugazi and Wu-Tang Clan joints is here. It’s awesome and just what you’re looking for right now. File beside Solen’s the equally brilliant Wu_Tang / Autechre mashup album.

Yeh, it’s another mashup idea – Wu-Tang meets Fugazi but don’t go just yet! ‘Sleep Rules Everything Around Me’ is a pretty effective mashup of ‘C.R.E.A.M’ and Fugazi’s ‘I’m so Tired’. A full album called 13 Chambers is to be revealed at Wugazi.com on July 13th. The mashups are by Doomtree. Sleep Rules Everything Around… Read more »

A mashup which serves itself well enough as a remix in its own right. Take Eskmo’s remx of Mew’s ‘Vaccine’ and James Blake’s ‘To Care (Like You)’ and add some dubstep hot sauce and you’ve got Berlin-based Soulmind’s delish edit. Download: Eskmo feat. James Blake – To Care (Like You) (Soulmind Edit) by Soulmind Here’s… Read more »

Philadelphia-based Bombe & Caribbean made a 30-minute mashup of Drake and Blake tracks which you can download in full here. My only complaint? Not nearly enough of Drake straight up rapping. A fun listen all the same. “… a soundtrack for sippin Robitussun & Alize in an abandoned Cathedral, covered in a velvet blanket with… Read more »

Trafik dropped this one on me last week, a mashup of Jay-Z’s ‘Pray’ and Focus’ ‘Hocus Pocus’. A brilliant bootleg you could imagine 2ManyDJs picking up on. Trafik released their album None But The Brave on Global Underground last month. This tune is being used on Nike World Cup ads at the moment. Jay-Z vs… Read more »
