Mashup Music

My favorite masher is probably ccc - his Revolved album is the most consistently excellent i've heard yet. It may be partly that his source material generally accords with my musical preferences.

The most impressive single song i've heard though is from DJ Earworm - No One Takes Your Freedom mashes up four songs with the same hook: Scissor Sisters - Take Your Mama, The Beatles - For No One, George Michael - Freedom '90, Aretha Franklin - Think. More recently i've had Brazilian Diamonds and L'Eau de Rose in heavy rotation.

Others i enjoy include:

rx' Imagine is staggering. The website is offline as of Sept 2006; you can see the tracklist via the WaybackMachine but the music is alas now unavailable directly. Three songs by the same artist are available: (me)tm
Party Ben and team9 (together as Green Day and their individual work)
DJ John
