2,742 Mashups!

I've just stumbled upon a motherload of mashups at GoodBlimey.com. There are literally thousands of creative bastard-pop songs to choose from. (Click at your own expense, you'll be perusing and streaming the site for days.)

While I've only listened to a handful, I am currently enamored with a pretty brilliant hybrid of Joanna Newsom's "Bridges and Ballooons," Missy Elliott's "One Minute Man," and The Beatles' "Strawberry Fields Forever." All three disparate songs co-mingle in loopy, musical bliss. I can also recommend Snoop Dog and the Flaming Lips pretty funky mashup as well. Let us know which ones you like!

Sweet Jesus, this is an amazing link! There's a great version of Cristina Aguilera vs Velvet Underground out there somewhere that I downloaded a while ago, by GoHomeProductions. I can't find the link anymore, but its way greater than the sum of its parts and borders on genius...

GoHome is the king ...

I'm partial to this Queen/Genesis mashup that goes on for like 10 minutes (not sure if it's GoHome or not) -- I mostly skip your Aguileras and other overproduced acts that I don't like in the first place, but that's the beauty of the mashup -- room for all!
