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)

Ghosts of my Father (The Presets vs Cat Stevens)
“From the moment I could talk, I was ordered to listen….If they were right, I’d agree. But it’s them they know, not me” I was looking for mashups of Ghosts by The Presets – one of my favourite songs, and was surprised to find almost none. So I made this to play on the podcast,…

Million Reasons For Something To Believe In (Clannad vs Lady Gaga)
Winner of ToTom’s Crumplbanger Challenge, and I took it to church, but a humanist/atheist one, and created a atheistic gospel/country song, contrasting Lady Gaga’s faith/loss of faith in someone vs Clannad’s criticism of that search and the fact that others lie, (including I’d say the Church, the State and others). Though although more I listen…

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…

Summertime Leviathan (Ella Fitzgerald & Louis Armstrong vs Everything Everything)
And now a summer track from this years Summer Booty. Summertime is one of my favourite songs, it’s strangely in a minor key for a summer track, a blues for summer…there’s a disquieting feel about it. Even the off-kilter strings that suggest a heat shimmer but also something less sunny. So it pairs really well…

Million Reasons I Don’t Like Mondays (Lady Gaga vs Boomtown Rats)
“Every heartbreak makes it hard to keep the faith” Your Monday theme song! Inspired by an old ToTom mashup – Lady Gaga’s Million Reasons vs a piano version of Gary Numan’s Down By The Park, I have been obsessed belatedly with the Gaga song. the lyrics resonate deeply with me at the moment. It seems…

Souvenir Walls – LiBianca vs OMD & Suzanne Vega vs Radiohead
Left of Centre, Wondering About You – or not in the case of the LiBianca track where her friends didn’t think of her at all – an afrobeat plea for considering the mental health of your friends, that theme seems to cross these two mashups. And yes, more 80’s! It’s hard to get a decent…

Dystopian Cyberpunk – Boards of Canada vs Animals & EBTG vs Buunshin
Adriana A of Bootie had a set at a Cyberpunk festival (Neotropolis) and challenged everyone to make cyberpunk mashups…Now mine were way too slow and moody to get on the mixtape (I think you had to have a name starting with A to get on it :-P), but I think the post-apocalyptic combination of Boards of…
