Get The Bottles Poppin'...

I'm not sure if this is any indiciation on how long it takes to make one of these but...when I made this mashup Ron Browz's "Pop Champagne" was one of the hottest songs in the country and now he's been dropped "released" from his label to pursue other opportunities. Mr. John Cougar Mellencamp is in here. (I don't hunt cougars anymore I hunt mellencamps...don't repeat that.) I used two fan videos instead of the actual music video because well... the video looks like a slideshow. Nothing against it but it just didn't work. Anyway I hope you like it.

The Quantum Conundrum...

Finally...after what feels like forever, I have finished the Quantum Conundrum. It's part one of a three part project. For this project I started taking the drums from one song, the melody from another and the lyrics from another and mashed them all together. It's 13 Tracks and a little under a hour long. So here's a post with all of the songs along with the samples used in the tracks. (P.S. I highly recommend downloading the whole thing and listening to them in order. Even if there isn't a "Pt. 1 or Pt. 2" next to it, some of them are.)

Hollywood Paparazzi Rule The World...

Here's a video mash-up for "Hollywood Paparazzi Rule The World". I did notice something kind of interesting after watching this for about 20th time. You know how on live TV the turn everything grayscale if the blood/gore has reached an certain level. (Maybe not, they do it sometimes during sports. rare) By turning Daft Punk's portions of the video into black and white I think it zapped it of some of its energy. Ah...well.

This one has got a couple of different songs in there. Towards the end John Mayer's "Waiting On The World To Change" shows up as well as small samples of "California Love" & "Beverly Hills". (Just working with a theme...LA...Paparazzi) The "Around the World/Television Rules The Nation" was originally done by DP during Coachella in 2006.

QC Is On The Way...

Here's a preview of one of the tracks on QC. QuantumTheorem 2.1: "Don't Stop Cowboy, Stay Fly Forever"

I Got A Feeling...

BEP has been at the top of the charts all summer long first with "Boom Boom Pow" & now "I Got A Feeling". While I'm a bigger fan of the older stuff, the new stuff fits in with the current state of music. Here's three mash-ups for "I Got A Feeling"

Let's Have Some Fun This Beat Is Sick...

I am a huge, I repeat huge Daft Punk fan. From their movies to their music everything is just out of this world. Now they're working on new music and a new movie but most importantly the Tron Legacy soundtrack. I wasn't even born when the first one came out but for whatever reason it and Short Circuit became two of my favorite movies growing up.

For many of the same reasons I like Daft Punk I'm beginning to like Lady Gaga. Her creativity is on another level. Here's my mashup of Daft Punk's Aerodynamic and Lady Gaga's Lovegame. I used her remix with Marilyn Manson along with the original so he's in there too.

Krazy Till I Come...

Pitbull has been doing a string of songs that sample popular dance/techno songs. His current hit Calle Ocho samples 75th Street Brazil. He's also sampled the ever popular Calabria in his song The Anthem and appears on a song by DJ Laz that samples Benassi's Satisfaction called Move Shake Drop.

With more dance and electronica being played so heavily in clubs and hip hop hanging in limbo, its a smart move to sample some of the club hits and get in on the action. I recommend downloading Birdman's Written On Her.

Here's Krazy Till I Come it's a mashup of Krazy, 9PM Till I Come, Maneater and Crazy Train that will be on The Quantum Conundrum Mixtape. Enjoy.

Welcome To Installation A17

photo by Jaime Martinez

So this is Installation A17, home of the Vanilla Varsity All-Stars & L.isle. I got tired of Facebook, Youtube and some of the other social networking sites. I felt constrained. So while I'll still post most of the stuff on Facebook, (videos on YouTube, Twitter, etc.) this is officially home base.

Also I've reposted my first mixtape the ElectroGhettoDiscoShow along with other songs here for archiving purposes. Stay tuned, subscribe and check back often because the next project is coming soon. The Quiet Kid & The Quest of The Quantum Conundrum (It's a mouthful I know) It's essentially three mixtapes. The first is The Quantum Conundrum which is a compilation of my DJ and mashup efforts. The second is The Quest which is a remix mixtape like ElectroGhettoDiscoShow. The last is The Quiet Kid which is my mixtape as an artist.
