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…

Captain Obvious – Space Flowers (Miley Cyrus vs Sheila) (Sir Hank reboot)
This one has a long and chequered history, I almost didn’t post this here – it’s an accidental reboot. I heard an A vs B vs C using the Miley Cyrus – Flowers vs Sheila B Devotion’s Spacer combination by Spider. I later found a dead link to Sir Hank’s mashup but I looked and…

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…

Padam Padam Twilight (Kylie Minogue vs ELO)
Trying to find good mashups of Kylie’s current hit ‘Padam Padam’ was like finding rocking horse shit – turns out it’s in a really odd key, well mode…C Mixolydian b6 which I thought was a Star Trek planet , aka ‘melodic major’ or aeolian dominant – or one of the Hindu Raga scales (that makes…

Bluey Idol (Dancing With Bluey)(Generation X vs Joff Bush)
What’s the best ever Australian TV series? Neighbours? Home and Away? Young Doctors? Prisoner Cell Block H? The Sullivans? No BLUEY! It literally is the best Australian thing ever…and DJNoNo wanted to have a go at the current Crumplbangers Discord challenge (EDIT: It won the challenge!) where the theme is use at least one Australian…

ABBA Party At Number 10 (Kid Kapichi vs ABBA)
Given ex-PM’s Boris Johnson’s speech at the Partygate inquest, DJNoNo got so any angry he made this mashup! He didn’t take part with ABBAstard so felt left out. One of the illegal parties at No. 10 during lockdown which PM probably attended breaking his own COVID regulations was a party, blasting the Swedish foursome at…

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…

SOPHIE & Dorian Electra new Hyperpop mashups
And continuing the Hyperpop challenge from DJNoNo’s last post, here are two more from that sad songs vs hyperpop challenge, a little like Unhappy Hardcore or Hardcure – the Foreigner vs Dorian Electra won that challenge! And I am very proud of the Carpenters vs SOPHIE one. WINNER of the Crumplbangers Challenge! And the second…

Fifty Fifty vs Bangles & Miriam Makeba vs Moroder
From South Africa to South Korea, here’s a global selection of mashups from Captain Obvious and Instamatic using tracks from Fifty Fifty, Miriam Makeba, Giorgio Moroder & Phil Oakey & The Bangles. And a shedload of 80’s – yeah even more 80’s Boomer shit! First up is a track by Captain Obvious unusually not for…
