Wow that was actually really great, not what I was expecting at all. Let's be honest, at least 80% of mashups on youtube are pure shit. 15% are pretty good and maybe 5% are great.Quote:

Now this is how you do a mashup. This song is my favorite from Feed the Animals. Girl Talk is seriously the best and most consistent mashup artist.
edit: lol infernus, that video is awesome
I really like this mashup (Memory Tapes vs Soulja Boy) but there's not a youtube video for the full song.

I was about to post this, wondering why Girl Talk wasn't the first post.Quote:

White Panda is a good one, too. They generally do two or three songs in a mashup. Sometimes they aren't the greatest though.

I'm not really a huge fan of mashups but there are a couple I've come across and liked. This one was used in The Sopranos and I think the two songs are merged quite cleverly

This next one seemed to just appear on my computer, I have no recollection at all of downloading it but I must have done. It's quite good, although not as good as some of the other examples in this thread.

Ugh, I thought that was pretty muddy in places (esp around 1:00). Maybe it worked better in the tv show but I did not like it.Quote:

I kind of agree that the chorus is awkward, but I feel like it's the "Party and Bullshit" part of the chorus that makes it awkward.Quote:

that one is slightly better
That just sounds annoying. The Rihanna repeating beats don't really work that well in this
