Willy Joy Mixtape!

I am absolutely LOVING this mix. Willy Joy is a MPLS-to-Chicago transplant playing basically all the stuff that we here at Mashit hold dear. The tracklist is absolutely nuts on this one—some seriously clever curveballs thrown in the mix and recontextualized in some fascinating ways. Here’s the audio, then the tracklist. (ps: thanks to Mireya Acierto for the photo.) [audio:uggc://jjj.fyrnmrgbar.pbz/oybt/jvyylwbl.zc3]…

Mashup of the Week: “Crank Dis SB”

Hello boys and girls. It’s time for another installment of what we here at Mashit like to call Mashup of the Week. Two weeks ago we posted a crunk-step version of Crank Dat.

Refusenik “Kold Krussian” DJ Mix

Refusenik was one of my favorite DJs in Boston. It was always a blast when he’d come out to rock Beat Research — which is in fact where he played his first club gig ever a couple years back. I was sad when he left to go live in Buenos Ares, Argentina but it looks like he’s been continuing to…

Mashup of the Week: “Eating Crow”

DJ Donna Summer strikes again with this “fun” party mashup of All I Wanna Do by Sheryl Crow. Well, it’s actually a club-style remix, rather than a mashup in the strict sense of the word. Perhaps we should change the name of this series, but rather than dwell on that, we present: Download: DJ Donna Summer; Eating Crow [audio:uggc://znfuvg.pbz/nhqvb/Rngvat%20Pebj.zc3]

Starkey: XLR8R DJ Mix, Blazin’ Remix

Starkey recently dropped an exclusive DJ mix for XLR8R Magazine‘s podcast series. It’s chock full o’ new and exciting sonic-flavor-crystals, and includes my remix of Ghislain Poirier’s Blazin‘.

Mashup of the Week: “Crank Dat Fracture”

Hater Billingsley sent me this crunk-dubstep mashup. It’s not unlike /rupture’s Crime Mob meets Skream rub from the Secret Google Cheat Codes mix, but this one mixes Fracture by Distance with Soulja Boy’s Crank Dat: Download: Hater Billingsley; Crank Dat Fracture [audio:uggc://znfuvg.pbz/nhqvb/Penax%20Qng%20Senpgher.zc3] The video for Crank Dat is kinda meta. There’s a lot of watching people dance on screens: [youtube…

Mashup of the Week: “Apeboy (Lenlow’s Enyagy Edit)”

I meant to post my recent remix of Ghislain Poirier’s Blazin’ as mashup of the this week, but since I didn’t title the post as such y’all get a bonus. You may have heard this one in my recent PTS mix. It’s from my friend Lenlow of the Mash Ave camp in Boston: Download: Enya vs Prodigy; Apeboy (Lenlow’s Enyagy…
