Mashup! Mashup! Mashup!

If you have ever been to my place, you know I love to play music and especially mashups. Last spring break, my section from HBS went to Panama for spring break and we were at this resort , pretty much the most beautiful place i have ever been to my life (credit Sofia Berger for taking us there). While hanging out there, I put on a mashup from Girl Talk (Feed the Animals) and was surprised to see how many of my friends knew nothing about Mashups. We ended up playing the Girl Talk, Danger Mouse, Z-trip, Bootie and RJDJ albums for most of the trip. In 2005, my buddies Nick Soman and Noel Rosencranz first introduced me to the live Bootie mashups which happen every other Saturday in SF at DNA lounge and since I have been hooked. Check out this clip from Bootie SF Mashup Shows. If you are ever in SF, try to go. Also, a good explanation on what Mashups are:


I have experimented a bit with it but mine are terrible right now, so I will share if I ever get good. In the meantime, I thought I would share some of my favorites of all time. Click below to play and enjoy:
