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

GYBO - the worlds largest bootleg and mashup forum has recently introduced a 'Gybo Reommends' section.

Hoosiers vs Katy Perry - "I'm Worried I Kissed A Girl Called Ray" - Mashup

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"

Kate Bush vs Nightcrawlers - "Running Up That Feeling" Mashup

Well, this is not a combo most people would think of but I'm not most people.

Probably the greatest living UK Female artist, Kate Bush, fused with one of Scotland's most prolific song writers, John Reid aka Nightcrawlers, produces something quite sublime really.

Take Kate's "Running Up That Hill" and blend it with a couple of different versions of Nightcrawlers "Push The Feeling On" and you get "Running Up That Feeling".

This is the second mashup I have produced at my recently aquired 'Touchpad Studios', the first being "Killer Client" and I'm liking what I'm producing there.

The mash, along with all my others, is available at my main site www.bobbymartini.co.uk on mashups page 8.

The Killers vs Client Mashup - "Killer Client

I am pleased to finally announce the long awaited release of my latest mash - Killer Client.

It's a fusion of The Killers "Somebody Told Me" and Client's "Radio". If you are not familiar with Client then I hope that might change after listening to this mash.

A version of this was featured a few weeks ago on BFBS Radio 1. You can now download for free two different versions of the track - a 7" Edit and the Extended 'Hattie' Mix. I decided to do an edited version as the extended mix comes in at nearly 8 minutes although I have to say it's the better of the two but the choice is yours.

Thanks to Sim @ BFBS for the initial play. Big thanks to Simon Iddol @ APC for the world premiere this week and a mega huge thanks to 'Hattie' for introducing me to Client in the first place !

Both versions are available from my main site - HERE on mashups page 8

The Beatles vs Sunscreem - Summer of Love 2008

My good mate, Simon Iddol, has compiled another fantastic compilation album over at his WHA! Studios and I was fortunate enough to be one of the mashup producers invited along.

Summer Of Love 2008 features some classic 60's and 70's tracks mashed with some equally superb late 80's and early 90's rave choons for a mini album/EP of complete pleasure.

My track is a fusion of The Beatles "Here Comes The Sun" and Sunscreem's "Release Me".

The end result is "Here Comes The Sunscreem"

It can be found at the usual address : www.bobbymartini.co.uk on mashups page 8

"Some Kinda Fantasy" - Timbaland vs Booty Luv (Mash Up)

This mash was my submission for the ever excellent Sound-Unsound 'Summer Booty' collection.

A fusion of Booty Luv's "Some Kinda Rush" (yes I know I am addicted to them at the moment !) and Timbaland's "Fantasy" from his shock value album, this mash lulls you into a false sense of serenity before smacking you round the face a few minutes from the end.

The waves you hear at the intro were recorded at Jaywick Sands, which I hear may be used for the UK version of CSI so watch this space !!!!! The car you hear is mine, a Corvette......yeah right !

Enjoy this 6 minute mp3 file of wonderfulness. It's not the last time you will hear me using Booty Luv........I think I have a couple more hidden away on my hard drive ;)

It can be found at my main 'proper' site - www.bobbymartini.co.uk on mashups page 8.

Thanks for reading - I hope you like what you hear and comments are always appreciated.

Until the next one,

Exclusive New Mash Premiered On The Radio This Friday 20th June

I have a brand new exlcusive mash that is being played live all around the world this friday on BFBS Radio 1.

I won't give away too many details but all I will say is it features pop goddess Kate Bush fused with the scottish songwrting master John Reid. Who ? I hear you say - Well John Reid was the genius behind Nightcrawlers and he is now one of the UK's most prolific songwriters, writing for people such as Kelly Clarkson and Leona Lewis.

If you want to hear this new mash weeks ahead of it's release then you will have to tune to Sim Courtie's Friday show. You can tune in online here or in via Sky Channel 0211 if you are in the UK or via DAB radio.

When can you download it ???????? - Oh........weeks yet ;)

"Shine Yet Suffer Well" - Depeche Mode vs Booty Luv

This mash was a real struggle for me. I wanted to do something a bit different for Scott Johnson's 100th Ramdom Thoughts show and knowing he was a huge Depeche Mode fan, I thought it quite fitting to produce a DM themed mash. I had been playing around with the Booty Luv pella for a few days but all the tracks I matched it with were all too similar. I decided to go completely out of the box with this one and mash two very different songs and genres. This mash went through about 7 different versions before I settled for this one.

I think it works and hopefully you will to. If you don't, no worries, the next mash will follow shortly !

This exquisite masterpiece can be found at the usual address www.bobbymartini.co.uk on mashups page 8.

Let me know what you think.

Bobby Martini Leaves the Pimp My Tune Team

Some of you reading this may know that I have been a member of the Mashed / Pimp My Tune team right from it's infancy way back in 2006.

I have chosen to leave Pimp My Tune. I won't go into reasons - it wouldn't be fair, but things basically didn't work out how I would have liked them too. That's just how life goes sometimes.

I wish all the remaining team success and good wishes for the future and don't forget to check out their website @ www.pimpmytune.com

Life On Mars - Bobby Martini Mix

Life On Mars was a superb time travel drama that ran for two series on BBC1. The theme tune, written by Edmund Butt, was clever in that it had a modern feel whilst still fitting in perfectly with tunes from the past such as Randall and Hopkirk and Saint etc.

The tune was written by Edmund Butt, who also wrote the music for the follow up series, Ashes to Ashes, Afterlife and Sea of Souls. My only gripe with the theme tune was the length - it was too short. In view of this I have extended it and remixed it. I have added some additional music by myself and also dropped in some speech clips from the show from stars John Simm and Philip Glenister.

"Life On Mars" - Bobby Martini Remix can be found at my main site - www.bobbymartini.co.uk on mashups page 7 or the TV Mashups Page where you also find my remix of the Alias theme tune.

I hope you like and look out for my remix of the Ashes to Ashes theme soon !!!!!
