    Welcome To London, Colin (The Clash vs Flow Dan vs Pet Shop Boys vs 808 State)

    WINNER of the 1989 Crumplbangers Discord Challenge! A very apocalyptic love/hate mashup about my manor…London. So had to do something with 808 State as both Quadrastate and 90 (both of which I own, on vinyl and cassette respectively) were released in 1989, and back then I was all over 808 State after Pacific State –…

    Kodiak Moment 3: Best of Instamatic & Captain Obvious 2008 – ​2011

    The Rise of The Aliases! I wasn’t exactly a stranger to aliases before but something about the second explosion of work around 2008-2010 meant I was wanting to branch out and not get bogged down with past failures while I was learning…many of which I had to fix on Volume 2!

    Final Mashups #2: Lost At The Beach (The Clash vs Beach House)

    A mashup that came out of my long-running remix of The Clash’s ‘Lost In The Supermarket'(more of that soon) 2 years ago, this is a very ambient chilled mashup using Beach House’s Myth…just finished it, and I think it works really well. Lost At The Beach (The Clash vs Beach House)

    Let Me Go Sunshine (Heaven 17 vs Rockers Revenge vs The Clash)

    As premiered in the latest podcast, this mashup isn’t my idea at all – Jeb Edwards aka DJ 50PoundNote asked me to make it as part of his set. He originally heard it on a friends tape from the 80’s but couldn’t find the original whitelabel (or it might have been mixed live?) so this…

    London Booted – Spanish Bombs (Over Baghdad) (The Clash vs Outkast)

    In honour of the 25th anniversary of Clash’s London Booted Richie over at CultureDeluxe decided to get everyone to mash up the whole album, Grey Album stylee back in Jan/Feb 04…I got ‘Spanish Bombs’, which was a very Strummer polemic about Lorca, the Spanish Civil War and ETA…I prevaricated (even wrote long words like that)…
