yeah, mashups.
more of that complicated 'web 2.0' nonsense.
okay, maybe i'm cranky cause i can't sleep so i'm blogging like a fiend when i should be catching dreams.
but the whole thing about mashups is this: they are just another term for the stuff that created musique concrete in the 20's, is the same idea as from the tape beatles, and really is a version of audio found art. [and incidently it's what got a certain dj in hot water with two record labels for mixing it up with jay-z and the beatles)
on the other hand, for someone with adventurous tastes and a bent towards experimentalism there is something to be said for mashing stuff up that doesn't really belong together just to see what is going to come out.
as long as you don't get a 'cease and desist letter' from a corporation decrying fair use and advising the artist that they are in violation of copy right.
anyways.
i'm just glad that i'm not the first one to thing of 'wonderwall' the first time i heard 'boulevard of broken dreams' but this is a nice mashup.
