GHP Unleashes Entire Mashup Collection Unto Masses

We told you about Go Home Productions aka Mark Vilder and his 20 track mashup retrospective a few weeks ago. Well forget about that retrospective. You can now get every single one of the mashups he made between 2002 and 2007 over at his website HERE (Almost all, actually. He has 12 of 16 CDs up, and promises the last four soon). That’s right, 16 CDs of pure, adulterated, Go Home Productions goodness! GHP is one of the top mashup producers in the world, so you’ll be sure to find many keepers. And I say "was," because he claims to have retired to focus on remixes and original productions. Unfortunate, but at least the man will still be bastardizing music in some way. Here is a track he made early in his mashup ‘career,’ back in 2002. It’s called The Weather Episode, which got some play on UK radio – no small feat in 2002. It blends Crowded House's "The Weather With You" with Snoop Dogg and Dr. Dre's rap track you should know by now.

Two For Thursday: Back With DJ Earworm - Part One

Greetings all.  Professor Quillam is back to MashupTown.  This week, I bring you another Two For Thursday blue light special spotlighting some of DJ Earworm's newest creations.  First, we begin with Believe Somebody, which features Madonna's "Like A Virgin," Cher's "Believe," Whitney Houston's "I Wanna Dance With Somebody," and George Kranz's "Din Daa Daa."  This little gem is a nice exercise in juggling various elements within one body and understanding how, and if, each element fits within the overall work.  DJ Earworm does a fantastic job of interweaving the songs with one another to create a new story.  He does so without sacrificing form and quality.  A prime example occurs at 2 minutes and 57 seconds into the mash-up whereupon Earworm utilizes the "Like A Virgin" riff to propel the mashup into a well structured coda section.  He then re-introduces the "Din Daa Daa" riff, which in turn sets up the remainder of the coda, much as it did in the opening seconds of the mashup.  All things considered, a four and one half star event provided courtesy of DJ Earworm.

Acapella: Madonna - "Like A Virgin," Cher - "Believe," Whitney Houston - "Wanna Dance With Somebody"
Instrumental: George Kranz - "Din Daa Daa," Madonna - "Like A Virgin"
