Major Lazer vs Dark Tantrum

Cosmic Smoking & Drinking ( Major Lazer f_Ty Dolla $ign vs Dark Tantrum ) 2023 Electronic vs 2014 Dubstep. Intended for ear stimulation. Give it a try. Link in comments.

Elton John vs Johnny Mercer

Crocodile Personality ( Johnny Mercer and the Pied Pipers vs Elton John ) 1945 Novelty vs 1973 Rock ’n Roll. Some day I’ll have’ta show you how it’s done. Link in comments.

Frank Zappa vs The Beatles

I Should Have Known Cosmik Debris ( Frank Zappa vs The Beatles ) 1973 Prog Rock vs 1964 Rock ’n Roll. I don’t think Zappa liked the Fab Four, but I reckon it was mutual. Link in comments.

Blue Oyster Cult vs 10cc

R U Ready To Rubber Bullets ( Blue Oyster Cult vs 10cc ) 1977 Classic Rock vs 1973 Pop. All this took was an emery board & a polishing cloth. Hope you like it. Link in comments.

Depeche Mode Policy of Truth remix

Depeche Mode - Policy Of Truth ( DJ Useo's SolarC Remix ) 1990 Synth-Pop given a 2024 update. A track fine enough to charm the clouds down from the sky. Link in comments.

House Of Love vs Junkie XL

You Don't Understand Basic Groove ( House Of Love vs Junkie XL ) 1992 Alt Rock vs 2003 Electronic. Play this every night at midnight & I will appear. Lol. Link in comments.

Cash vs Money ( Johnny Cash vs Johnny Paycheck vs Eddie Money ) 1968 Country vs 1987 Country vs 1986 Pop Rock. Folsom Prison Blues vs The Old Violin vs Take Me Home Tonight. Name a track that’s more country & win some grits! Link in comments.

Eels vs The Beatles

I'm Looking Through Mr. E's Beautiful Blues ( Eels vs The Beatles ) 2000 Alt Rock vs 1965 Classic Rock. My last Beatles mashup. Sorry, I mean latest. ;) Link in comments.

Falco vs Ciccone Youth

Into The Groovey Cowboyz & Indianz ( Falco vs Ciccone Youth ) 1985 New Wave vs 1988 Industrial. Mix works better than your average mood elevator, with only half the side effects. Link in comments.

Dr. Octagon vs Inspiral Carpets

Beast Inside Aliens ( Dr. Octagon vs Inspiral Carpets ) 2006 E-Hop vs 1991 Madchester. I meant to do the reverse of this mix, but this version is tons better. Link in comments.

Chunga's Rhapsody ( Queen vs Frank Zappa )

Chunga's Rhapsody ( Queen vs Frank Zappa ) 1975 Brit Rock vs 1970 Prog Rock. An experiment with questionable results. Link in comments -

George Harrison vs Kiss

All Things Calling Dr. Love ( George Harrison vs Kiss ) 1970 Classic Rock vs 1976 Metal. A mix that captures the feel of George in high-heeled demon boots. Link in comments -

XTC vs Supermen Lovers

She Doesn't Reign ( XTC vs Supermen Lovers ) 1984 Alt Rock vs 2022 Electronic. Note the comparative elegance of the da capo vs the cadence. Link in comments -
