Bootie Blog

Don’t worry it stands for Bootleg. Just found this linked to something at the excellent aggregator Elbows. It’s a blog dedicated to mash-ups and, as you probably correctly assumed, it’s got some good tracks, some bizarre mixes, and some absolutely atrocious shite on it. Most stuff is worth a listen, even if it’s just to find out what it sounds like to mash-up Biggie and Myley Cyrus (shite) or T.I and Tony Bennet (surprisingly ok/decent). Check it out here.

I’m ill (not sick)

Anybody see that bit on Newsnight Review the other day when Germaine Greer told that eggheaded prick Mark Lawson that she reckoned crunk’n’bass was going to be THE sound of 2010? No? Shit… probably wasted my time putting this together, then:

omni trio x lil wayne – millionsnares (download)

Incidentally, the trailer for the documentary about Mr. Weezy looks ILL. What a mentalist…

Grey Album Two

Back in 2004 Dangermouse cut up the Beatles White Album with a cappellas  from Jay-Z‘s Black album to make the Grey Album (get it here, if you’ve not heard it – or nicked my copy). New York DJ Max Tannone‘s taken the concept and created Jaydiohead, which I’m sure you can work out from the picture above. Who knows, there may still be life in the old mash up yet.

I’d love to say it’s amazing, but I’ve just found it and I’m at work, so I’ve not listened to it yet. Those of you with the common sense to bring headphones to work can listen to it here (it’s also available for download), or buy it on shiny plastic circles here.
