ABBAstard & 4 new ABBA mashups
There aren’t enough ABBA mashups – despite the Bootie Mashup compilation from a few years ago and myself trying to plug that gap single–handedly! Rectifying this, a bunch of us corralled by iWillBattle have got together and created the ABBAstard album – 25 tracks from the likes of myself, Will, TheRandomSapphire, oki, DJ J-Brew, fnogg,…

Rainy Lovesong (Eurythmics vs The Cure)
Who knew Annie Lennox was a goth? I was never a massive Cure fan, but I was a big Eurythmics fan as a kid, and I think the darkness and goth side to their music is a bit lost in the shiny electro stylings, but it’s more evident in their earlier tracks like this one…

While My Flowers Gently Weep (Miley Cyrus vs The Beatles)
“We were right ’til we weren’tBuilt a home and watched it burn” Miley Cyrus – Flowers Sometimes a lyric hits me like a proverbial truck, last year it was “I’m the problem it’s me’, this year it’s this song…loving all the disco mashups of Flowers, but think it deserves the slow moody treatment, one like…

Bitter Styles Symphony (Harry Styles vs The Verve)
As It Was by Harry Styles has always bugged me – it’s a-Ha type synths hide a very dark track, and it feels like it’s really double the speed it should be. Also it seems quite indie and alternative with mention of pills and isolation. ‘Cause it’s a bitter sweet symphony, that’s life (you know…

Don’t Start Plastic Love (Dua Lipa vs New Order vs Donna Summer)
I did this Dua Lipa vs New Order and Donna Summer mashup for the Crumplbangers Challenge – it didn’t even get a honorary mention, tumblweed as usual 🙁 The challenge was Indie vs Mainstream and New Order are definitely classically indie (Factory band; this was released on Mute); but I suspect Plastic isn’t the sort…

Captain Obvious – Only 80s Ghosts Again (Yazoo vs Depeche Mode)
Ahh the ‘OOK* 80’s Bootlegs’ that Sowndhaus is apparently famous for! Everyone is making Ghosts Again mashups, so thought I’d have a go. Yes this is so obvious it’s Captain Obvious, but I’ve never made a Yazoo mashup so neh. And it’s an era mashup, indie 80’s versus modern 80’s corporate-ish pop (DM are on…

Rich White Straight Men’s Money (Kesha vs Pink Floyd vs ABBA)
OK for some reason I decided to do the latest Crumplbanger Challenge set by Titus Jones on Hard Mode, cos I forgot that Pink Floyd’s Money is in 7/4. Probably the only 7/4 track in this challenge….and also only my second Kesha mashup ever (WAAAAY back in the day I did one where she guested…

Quack Bitch (Britney Spears vs Duck Sauce vs Rick Dees vs Weird Al vs The Goodies)
This is DJNoNo’s entry to the current Crumplbangers Challenge set by Titus Jones to mash one of his favourites (Kesha, Britney, Killers, Muse or Panic At The Disco) with your favourites. DJNoNo has been watching WIll It Mash with me and it seems he’s picked up a few things, not exactly good habits: ducks, lasers,…

I Wouldn’t Run Up That Hill (Kate Bush vs Alan Parsons Project)
Groovy Prog Funk Robot Disco Kate Bush anyone? I am going to get a reputation for all these prog boots, I am actually a punk at heart but I love Alan Parson Project’s I Wouldn’t Want To Be Like You – a sort of angry rock disco jam that’s so funky. Check those ride cymbals!…

Prisencolinensinainciusol Asthma Pumps
This came 3rd in the Crumplbangers Gibberish Challenge set by Peggy_P – well the Total Gibberish version did, which has none of the Doobie Brothers vocals. Tom Johnston drawls so much it’s hard to work out what he’s saying half of the time anyway! Surprised no-one touched Adriano Celentano’s classic Prisencolinensinainciusol (fun fact: DJNoNo Fave…
