Captain Obvious – Close (To The Highway) (Rascal Flatts vs Art of Noise)
Another Captain Obvious (old) banger, this time created for a Car themed Crumplbangers Discord challenge….and when I think cars, I think Art Of Noise’s Close (To The Edit) which famously sampled a neighbour’s VW Golf. Also the first time I’ve mashed a modern Disney track – Life is a Highway – this one is from…

Pink Fez (Pink Floyd vs Disasterpeace)
Created for the Video Game Crumplbangers Challenge. Not the first time I have mashed the FEZ soundtrack either! Nor Pink Floyd’s Wish You Were Here…Disasterpeace’s soundtrack is one of my favourite game soundtracks of all time. Pink Fez (Pink Floyd vs Disasterpeace)

All By My Vampire (Olivia Rodrigo vs Eric Carmen)
I usually only do mashups where I like least one of sources I like, for very good reason. Mashes like this are why…I have got to the ‘post it or delete it’ stage. I want it out of my sight, for good. Sometimes doing a mashup will sell me on a track, I will grow…

ArABBAian Disco (ABBA vs Ihsan Al-Munzer)
This is for the current Crumplbangers challenge that ToTom has set for using unmashed or undermashed artists. So ToTom you want deep digging? Well what about middle eastern funk/disco with ABBA? (yes don’t forget international/non-English speaking artists are very much unmashed too). I am big fan of 70’s and 80’s middle eastern music especially if…

Emotional Mashup 2: Elliott Smith & Heatmiser
I am a mahoosive fan of Elliott Smith and his former band Heatmiser and weirdly until this year I have never mashed or remixed his work. His chords and keys are quite complex, although as I found if you go back to what he cribbed (the Beatles mainly) you can sidestep that. Also until the…

Emotional mashups 1: Rainy Days and Hexagons
Trying something rather emotional MoodyMash with a rainy day breakup theme for the Crumplbanger Discord Film Music challenge. More experimental downtempo and layered than my usual stuff, trying to push the tbc/downtempo stuff into interplay and more variety of sources – I mean Aphex, Burial, Scott Walker, Magnetic Fields AND Nina Simone? With MY reputation?…

GOh Beat! (The Linda Lindas vs The Go Go’s)
Probably the first Linda Lindas mashup? This was done for this week’s Crumplbanger’s Challenge which was from Will Battle – and he challenged us to use a track from a band on the When We Were Young festival. A lot of bands I am not into, but at the bottom is The Linda Linda’s which…
