Mashups | Yoni – Turns to Gold | Mashups

Posted by BIGLIFE on June 7, 2011

At first, the mashes that included several songs rather than the traditional 1 v 1 setup threw me off – I thought it was too much packed into one beat. However, artists like Yoni, Dj Dibella, 5 & A Dime, and Kap Slap have swayed my opinion with their recent works. Yoni’s “Turns To Gold” blends tracks like Deadmau5’s Raise Your Weapon with Goulding’s Lights and Wynter Gordon’s Dirty Talk. Normally, I can discern what will work based on the 1 v 1 titles, but I just have to take a leap of faith with these multi-tracked songs. For all you conventionalists who are still warming up to this sound, check out the bonus tracks by Medium Sized Jeff and Tommy T.

Electro, Hip-Hop | Childish Gambino – Freaks and Geeks (Star Slinger Remix) | Hip-Hop

Posted by BIGLIFE on April 1, 2011

Here’s a sick “electrified” remix to Freaks and Geeks. If you have yet to take a leap of faith with Childish, now is the time. I’ll admit that I was skeptical at first – too many celebrities seem to be tainting the music game with their rubbish these days – fortunately Gambino doesn’t fall under that standard. If he continues to put out witty bars and tasteful productions he could easily become a big name in the rising star game.

Mashups | DJ Dibella – Winter Drunkerland | Mashups

Posted by BIGLIFE on February 20, 2011

This pretty much has BIGLIFE written all over it – you need to listen to this project. Productions like these restore my faith in the art of mashups. Too many people discredit tracks like these claiming they lack originality and craftsmanship. The verses and beats might be recycled but, as in the case of DJ Dibella, the combinations bring a refreshingly new sound to my ear drums. At times I felt like my high school mixer memories were clashing with my college party days. Revisiting forgotten bangers like “Kiss Kiss” and Daft Punk’s “Around The World” while simultaneously hitting Deadmau5 tracks is the perfect formula for an instant eargasm. We’ve posted plenty of his tracks on FNT and will continue to do so but if you’re craving more, check out his Soundcloud, Facebook page and Twitter for additional content.
