The problem with mashups is that there is a world of amatuers spreading their homemade crap mashups that just spoil the select few good ones out there.

IMO Mark Ronson is da King of MASHUPS. Miki if you don't already have it look up Mark Ronson's January 2007 Essential Mix. That's what got me hooked.

Edit: Found a 5 minute Minimix he did for Annie Mac. The first 30 seconds are just too awesome:

so very irritating

but I will agree that there are SOME good ones out there. DJ Zebra - Come Closer (Nine Inch Nails - Closer vs. The Beatles - Come Together) comes to mind. They were alot more tolerable when they weren't considered their own genre or style, but instead just random remixes that popped up every now and again. It does my head in that there are djs that play nothing but mashups. I can appreciate djs that do the occasional mashup on the fly however. Angello/Ingrosso doing Pryda feat Julie McKnight - Diamond Muranyi for example.
