La Roux Double Pack including "La Roux In Pain"

After a long time off I bring you two new mashups, both featuring "Bulletproof" by La Roux.

-

The first is La Roux vs Chuck Carr....never heard of him ???? - Well you have now. He wrote the theme tune to the PS3 game "PAIN" and I just though it would fit "Bulletproof" perfectly.

-

The second mash is a fusion with Andy Hunter's "Sound Pollution". You may have heard of him, maybe not? Either way, visit his site, buy his tunes and enjoy.....he is pretty good.

-

"La Roux In Pain" can be found on this wonderful compilation HERE

-

Both tracks can be downloaded from my main site at www.bobbymartini.co.uk

-

Happy Xmas and all that.....till next time....Bobby !

Peter Gabriel vs Crowded House Mashup - "Something So Strong In Our Secret World"

This is the third and last in my Crowded House mashup trilogy. A fusion of Peter Gabriel's beautiful "Secret World" and Crowded House' "Something So Strong". I reckon these two tracks were made for each for other.
-
Weighing in at nearly 6 minutes and just over 10mb worth of download - it's well worth it !
-
It can be downloaded from my main site www.bobbymartini.co.uk on mashups page 10

Crowded House vs Keane Mashup "Is It Any Wonder I Can't Carry On ?"

The second of a Crowded House trilogy. This features one of my favourite tracks of all time 'Can't Carry On' by Crowded House along with 'Is It Any Wonder', the first single from Keane's second album.
-
"Is It Any Wonder I Can't Carry On" can be found at the usual address - www.bobbymartini.co.uk on mashups page 10.
-
The third in the trilogy is a fusion with Peter Gabriel.....it's been a while since me and Pete got together so watch this space !!!!

Crowded House vs OneRepublic Mashup - "Apologize To Me"

Well, after a fairly long absence I am back with this 3 minute fusion of one of the finest song writers in recent history, Neil Finn's 'Crowded House' and recent Timbaland buddies, 'OneRepublic'.
-
I have been a fan of Crowded House for as long as I can remember and was lucky to see them live on the 'Woodface' tour many years ago. I thought the time was due for a Crowded House mash and so here is the first of a Neil Finn trilogy. Using the "Mean To Me" acapella and mixing with the Timbaland instrumental version of "Apologize", ladies and gentlemen.......for your listening pleasure.......I bring you.....divorce.......a padded cell.....and....suicide.......yes, not a happy mash this one but it might just bring a smile to your face !!

Blondie vs The Hours Mashup

My first introduction to mashups on the internet was via mashuptown.com
-
It's where I first started posting and is probably one of the most followed mashup sites still around today.
-
Where others come and go, mashuptown is still around today so if you haven't heard of it before, go give it a try and subscribe.
-
This fusion of Blondie's "Hanging On The Telephone" and The Hours' "Ali In The Jungle" was meant to be a mashuptown exclusive but unfortunately that has not been the case so it's available as per normal via my main site www.bobbymartini.co.uk on mashups page 9.

The Feeling vs The Bravery - "I Love It When You Ring"

The UK's 'The Feeling' gets the mashup treatment this time. Fused with New York based 'The Bravery's "Ring Song".
-
This one was fun to do. Quite simple. Not life changing but a jolly little bit of pop for your ears.
-
The Feeling - "I Love It When You Call"
The Bravery - "The Ring Song"

F.E.A.R In Lila's Eyes

This mashup features an instrumental track called "Lila" by Vas - a duo of American percussionist Greg Ellis and vocalist Azam Ali (who is also an awesome hammered dulcimer player, as you can here on this track)
-
I first heard this track whilst watching the first Tomb Raider film. It isn't actually featured on the album so I had to hunt around a bit and finally found the album on itunes.
-
I have always wanted to use the track in a mash but never found the 'right' match. An excuse to use it came in the form of the latest Sound-UnSound compilation, "Bhangra Booty".
-
I wanted to use the Vas track but really wanted to make it more busy and give the mash a real 'ethnic/indian, busy market street sound'.
-
I chose Ian Brown's 'F.E.A.R' as the perfect instrumental to match the 'Lila' track (and the real bonus was the fact that it was in key !!!) but the problem was finding the perfect acapella ???
-
Kelly Clarkson wasn't the first choice. The mash first had a male pella but something just wasn't gelling and although I have used the Kelly Clarkson pella before, mashed with Coldplay, I didn't mind using it again.
-
The end result is exotic, busy, dreamy, but most of all, in time and in key LOL (always a bonus)
-
You can download "F.E.A.R In Lila's Eyes" @ www.bobbymartini.co.uk on mashups page 9.

Amy MacDonald vs Ne-Yo Mashup

Right, first off - this is not a combination that most people would think off. In fact, most people would probably be turned off at the thought of the 'Gentleman of R&B' fused with the Scotland's latest songstress(is that even a word ?) - but think again because this fusion really does work.....

-

Described by one person as my best mash since "Lullaby In Your Eyes" (although to be fair that person was my wife) this turns Ne-Yo's hit "Closer" on it's head, slows it down quite a bit and merges it with Amy's "Footballer's Wife" from her album "This Is The Life".

-

The end result is beautiful melancholy, swirling strings based ballad that may bring tears to your eyes - although no guarantee can be made of this.

-

You can find "Closer To A Footballer's Wife" on my main site @ www.bobbymartini.co.uk on mashups page 9.

-

Relax, download, listen, enjoy......and don't cry too much !!!!!

"SPOOKS" BBC1 Main Theme - Bobby's Make It Last Mix

A few months ago I remixed the theme tune to the BBC1 series "Life On Mars". It went down really well and I got a few emails from thanking me for it.
-
One of the emails asked if I had thought about remixing the theme from "Spooks" - I hadn't even heard the theme at the time but after getting hold of it, written by the excellent Jennie Muskett I knew straight away I wanted to give it a whole new sound.
-
Seeing as everyone thinks of Spys as being sexy (just look at James Bond for instance !) I wanted to give the theme a bit of a sexy twist. The result is a mash of the theme with "Make It Last" by Dave Aude and Jessica Sutta (from the Pussycat Dolls).
-
It certainly lasts a lot longer that the theme does on the programme !
-
It can be found on mashups page 9 and on the TV mashups page along with the "Life On Mars" mix and the "Alias" mix too @ www.bobbymartini.co.uk

Genesis vs Fragma "There's No Hiding Place" Mashup

Well, as promised in my last post, here is my 'comeback' mash. A fusion of Genesis and Fragma (not something you find very often I'm sure)

Featuring one of my favourite Genesis tracks, "Man On The Corner" taken from the ever superb album 'Abacab' and the 2008 version of Fragma's "Toca's Miracle", I think I have just given old Phil Collins a bit of cred...........maybe ??

"There's No Hiding Place" was featured on both Scott Johnson's Ramdomthoughts show and got it's first worldwide radio play on 17th Oct by Sim Courtie on BFBS Radio 1. Thanks to both of you for your support.

The mash can be found at the usual address - www.bobbymartini.co.uk on mashups page 9

This was one of those mashups that came together quite quickly (whereas others can take weeks and even months). There are a number of Katy Perry mashups out there at the moment and some you may prefer (especially DJ Fac's which is nothing short of excellent) but try this one anyway - it won't take long - it's just under 3 mins !

Queen vs Leona Lewis - "Bleeding Ga Ga" Mashup

This is probably one of the most 'radio friendly' mashups I have ever done.

There have been many Leona Lewis mashups done in recent months and I thought it only fair to join the band wagon so here is my contribution !

Queen - "Radio GaGa" vs Leona Lewis "Bleeding Love"

"Bleeding GaGa"
