Happy Fake Plastic New Year (ABBA vs Radiohead)
EDIT: New video as well! – the YouTube got blocked cos weirdly ABBA are OK with mashup/fan videos but Radiohead is not? Not for Fake Plastic Trees, anyhoos. And I thought I did enough intercutting…sigh. So currently in Dispute Hell, not a good start to the year. So here’s the Vimeo. HAPPY NEW YEAR! And…

Dorothea from Hackensack (Taylor Swift vs Fountains of Wayne)
Over 2 years ago Adam Schlesinger died, and I was gutted since Fountains of Wayne were a bit part of my post-Britpop comedown listening (less Stacey’s Mom, more Radiation Vibe). And their best song was never a single, it was a later album track called Hackensack – even Katy Perry covered it! So I was…

Last Christmas Heroes (Wham vs David Bowie) video
Another christmas ‘present’ is a video for my Last Christmas Heroes mashup – a lot of ‘fun’ doing this since Davinci Resolve kept crashing, not sure if it’s cos it’s the latest version or the snow particles I was playing with – the Heroes video works really well with snow! Sadly it’s blocked on YouTube…

Separate Ways To The Garden (Journey vs Michael Nyman)
I wasn’t planning to make this sort of mashup with Journey’s Separate Ways – but I tried it and it worked. Michael Nyman is an important figure in my early music listening, I was obsessed with Peter Greenaway’s films as an art student, watched them all including his early films. Big part of that was…

Voulez Vous La Machine – ABBA vs Pink Floyd
You never knew Björn & Benny, Agnetha & Anni-Frid had a progressive rock side did you? Here they team up in a large plexiglass pyramid with the `Floyd and Welcome you to the Master Scene, the Voulez Vous Machine, sil vous plait. (My pre-GCSE French is failing at this point monsewer) And there’s something deliciously…

Sébastien Tellier Double Bill
Another lost track, this time I didn’t want to seem like I was trying to crash in on the death of Fletch (Andy Fletcher) of Depeche Mode. I remade this 2008 mashup by DJ Giac for the podcast then forgot to post it…it’s been 6 months, I think enough time has passed. `La Ritournelle is…

Last Christmas Heroes – Wham vs Bowie
And finally this gets released – my other Xmas track -the Taylor Swift one got chosen for Bootie Xmas but I think this one is a classic festive sadbanger (well it’s euphoric as well, oddly) This was one of the other tracks under consideration for the Bootie Christmas 7 compilation….but I think it’s the best…

Pagan Weeknd (Die For Your Poetry) (The Weeknd vs Björkj
For AA. “a secret code carved…” And the moodymashes haven’t gone away….they just got shelved for the festive and disco fare which is also posted very soon or elsewhere!. . Some songs just trigger an immediate personal reaction, like going straight back to where I was. Pagan Poetry was one, a difficult time where I…

3 New Taylor Swift Midnights Mashups
Really digging Midnights, the new-ish album by Taylor Swift atm and obsessed by the songs Anti-Hero, You’re On Your Own, Kid, and Snow On The Beach. I’m only on track 11 cos I keep stopping to make mashups of the album. Even DJNoNo got in on the act! At this rate I’ll have an album….…
