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)
