**Big epic mash-ups…?**

Guys n gals,

You never cease to let me down but im here asking for some tracks which i don’t really play.

Been asked to do a commercial dance night, but what im looking for are some big mash-ups of the above…

Managed to find a mash of rihanna’s - only girl with insomnia & a few red hot chiili “otherside” mashes, so its those sort of things im after!

Any help would be great, cheers in advance

Mikey

Off the top of my head, I can’t think of specific mashups that I really like and I don’t know what type of mashups you are into (there are mashups like Girl Talk which switches songs a lot or there are more regular mashups where it’s just the vocals of one track layered on the instrumental of another track).

I can however suggest a lot of mashup artists whom I enjoy listening to and maybe a track or two of them that you should check out.

MashupGermany (Specific ones include Hakuna Matata (I made it) for and Love the Way You Mix) I really like most of his though.

Dj Stroke

Mother Earth

Titus Jones (Possibly my favorite)

Mochi Beats

Friendly Giant

Milkman

Dj Earworm

Girl Talk

Super Mash Bros.

E-603

White Panda

Dj Earworm

(The ones I would check out if I am short on time are Girl Talk, White Panda, Titus Jones and Mashup Germany but once again, just personal perference. I’m sure there are specific mashups that I can’t name but really enjoy)

Check out the Friendly Giant-- his best songs are here: [http://thefriendlygiantmusic.blogspot.com/](http://thefriendlygiantmusic.blogspot.com/)

He usually uses pop/hip-hop vocals but he uses instrumentals from a lot of different genres.  
Here are my favorite two songs by him.

is it just me or is playing other people’s mash-ups tantamount to ripping transitions/blends from other people’s mixes and using them in your own sets?

just seems kind of lazy, why not make your own custom mash-ups & edits.

Loo & Placido do some nice mashups as well, most I’ve seen are more towards the rock + something side if i remember correctly but fun to listen too anyway 😃

Get on Indian Summer DJs - they are out of Melbourne, only pretty local at the moment but they are getting tongues waging around here!

Hit this link, there is a download link for their latest Mash album!

[http://www.waxwaves.com.au/releases](http://www.waxwaves.com.au/releases)

I highly recommend it!

While you are poking around check out Naysayer and Gilsun, once again a pretty local Melbourne act so I don’t know if you will find much of their stuff…

but here is the hot tip - YACHT CLUB DJS \<\< get amongst it!

With a genre that he doesn’t specialize in I don’t think so. Mash-ups etc can take a pretty long time and it seems like he is only doing this as a one off. Think of the much time he would take producing his own mash-ups or even on the fly ones would have to be practiced and perfected. Then it seems to be a one off thing. I doubt the much money he is making from the gig will be worth the time and effort that he would put into it if he made his own mash-ups etc.

Love this thread btw. I also do not specialize in this kind of genre but do a mix for the radio station I work for under an alias name and do not speak throughout the show this gets aired for. I do some of my own mash-ups and edits but only when I have the time which isn’t very often. It can take up alot of my time looking for something different yet still Top 40 orientated and its great to see some names I have never checked out before.  
Cheers Lads!
