That mashup moment...

What do I mean you ask? Well, in my few years of spinning, every once in a while I'll be cueing up the next track in my headphones and as I let it play out to check the beatmatch and whatnot, all of a sudden it dawns on me that this track would go perfectly over the current one playing out. An impromptu mashup ensues. For example, the other day I was playing out "Travelling Light" by Schulz and brought in Benz & MD - Turning the Curve (Original Mix). Amazingly, for a random and unexpected mashup, it sounded pretty damn good!
Have you guys had this experience before? If so, say what the tracks were. |

| Lostep - Burma (Sasha Mix) over Chris Lake - Changes (Instrumental Mix) changes 'Changes' from a flat-beat to a breakbeat and sounds pretty damn good. |

Hey guys,
What you're describing is exactly what made Sasha famous. Back in the day, he was doing this with all of his albums -- I remember listening to GU 13 for the first time and having no clue about which song was playing. The mixing was so smooth it was hard to tell. |

for the most part when songs are in the same key and bpm they sound good on top of each other, you just have to watch your eq's.. a good example here in my last mix i started with a mashup of cafe del mariachi & colombian soul, both are Em 125 bpm they were almost made for each other, have a listen if you care..

Tilt - Twelve [Orkeida Remix] w/ Pulsar - My Religion was a favourite of mine, it happened to sit just right when I was having a mix one day so decided to include it in the next demo I did :)
Just had the lead for My Religion building up through the breakdown then they kicked in together... the chords from Twelve fit really nicely with the My Religion lead and give it a slightly different but quite cool feel |

My dear good...
You should check out the young DJs here in melbourne.
All they f*cking do is mashups!! It's killing me... a usual set contains the same electro house bass in each track with the vocals of some other track over it.
Heaps of these young DJs don't even have a clue how to put a decent one hour set together because they are too busy trying to mix the latest electro track with Justin Timberlake's new releases! |
