"Supermassive Something"

Joel-Steven aka 'Voicedude' — Wed, 10 Sep 2008 05:53:58 GMT

One of my favorite new groups matched against one of my least favorite performers. Hey, at least they've found some common ground with this one. And if you listen closely, you'll even hear a pseudo-eco friendly message here: ("...glaciers melting in the dead of night; why don't you do something?"). "Supermassive Something" "Supermassive Black Hole" - Muse (vocals, guitar) "Do Something" - Britney Spears (instruments, some vocals) .....just DO it!

"Supermassive Something" [electro mix]

Joel-Steven aka 'Voicedude' — Wed, 10 Sep 2008 00:48:35 GMT

Another version of the above mash-up using the dj monk remix.

"I Kissed Leona Lewis"

Joel-Steven aka 'Voicedude' — Tue, 26 Aug 2008 03:39:21 GMT

Since the two parts of this mashup seem to currently be the most overused songs, I figured I'd put the two songs together. ....just to annoy you! "I Kissed Leona Lewis" featuring" "I Kissed A Girl" - Katy Perry (acapella) "Bleeding Love" - Leona Lewis (instrumental) I dare you to make until the end! I double-dog dare you!

"I Just Need To Hold Your Hand"

Joel-Steven aka 'Voicedude' — Sun, 17 Aug 2008 02:29:09 GMT

Knew these two would work.....someday! Thank God for Rock Band and Guitar Hero and the like for helping to bring back Classic Rock parts. "I Just Need To Hold Your Hand" featuring: "I Want To Hold Your Hand" - The Beatles "Just What I Needed" - The Cars If Ric and Ben had been from Liverpool a bit earlier... - artwork by blybug -

"The Hustle Slide"

Joel-Steven aka 'Voicedude' — Tue, 12 Aug 2008 20:27:40 GMT

I've always wanted to put these two together: that iconic line dance from the 70's with the latest line dance from the new millennium. Slip on your dancing shoes and get in line... "The Hustle Slide" featuring: "The Hustle" by Van McCoy "The Cha-Cha Slide" by Mr.C (aka DJ Casper) Mobile DJ's: I've already tested this with kids (who approve) and older audiences (who prefer it to the original). THIS mix makes the Cha Cha Slide more palatable to older audiences who are not crazy about the original's bass drone! So......PLAY IT!

"Turning Sukiyaki"

Joel-Steven aka 'Voicedude' — Sun, 03 Aug 2008 20:04:11 GMT

Here's what always seems to happen: what seems to me a natural pairing seems odd or near impossible to others. So it goes with this one. When making something like this, it's perhaps better to have a BONZAI attitude. If it makes you feel any better, think of this as an aural California Roll. "Turning Sukiyaki" featuring: "Turning Japanese" - The Vapors "Sukiyaki" - Kyu Sakamoto Arigato!

"Velvet Dreams"

Joel-Steven aka 'Voicedude' — Mon, 28 Jul 2008 08:21:51 GMT

My fellow mashup artists & I were discussing how cool it would be to do a David Lynch themed collection of mashups, and I was struck with this idea. So I combined the two most prevelant songs from Lynch's creepiest, and possibly best film: "Blue Velvet". So take a deep hit of pure oxygen and get ready for a candy coated clown.... "Velvet Dreams" featuring: "Blue Velvet" by Bobby Vinton "In Dreams" by Roy Orbison MOM-M-M-MMY!

"The Way You Make Me Honky Tonk"

Joel-Steven aka 'Voicedude' — Mon, 07 Jul 2008 22:40:13 GMT

The Bill Doggett classic from 1956 and Jacko's best from 'Bad' together at last. Another Oldies meets Old School. "The Way You Make Me Honky Tonk" featuring: "The Way You Make Me Feel" - Michael Jackson "Honky Tonk, Parts I & II" - Bill Doggett HEE-hee!

"Ride A Black Horse"

Joel-Steven aka 'Voicedude' — Wed, 18 Jun 2008 03:52:29 GMT

If you ever wanted to mix together pumped-up R&B, hard rockin' country, and folk-pop - then this is what it might sound like: "Ride A Black Horse" featuring: "Ride A Black Horse" by KT Tunstall - lead vocals, acoustic "Save A Horse, Ride A Cowboy" by Big & Rich - electric guitars, some BGVs "Men In Black" by Will Smith - beats, bass, keyboards, some BGVs yee-HAW??

"Cool, Flowing Water"

Joel-Steven aka 'Voicedude' — Sat, 24 May 2008 00:42:55 GMT

Here's a fun little pairing that I always wanted to match up. The classic by the Sons of the Pioneers is given new life when coupled with the Talking Heads. You may need an umbrella for this one.... "Cool, Flowing Water" featuring: "Once In A Lifetime" by the Talking Heads "Cool, Cool Water" by the Sons of the Pioneers I hope you're refreshed.....

"Don't Get It Over"

Joel-Steven aka 'Voicedude' — Fri, 16 May 2008 01:10:04 GMT

A new version of a mashup originally done in 2005 with Crowded House's vocals over tracks by Marvin Gaye. The original had it the other way around..... "Don't Get It Over" featuring: Crowded House - "Don't Dream It's Over" Marvin Gaye - "Let's Get It On" (the original version from 2005 is below)

"Let's Dream It's On"

Joel-Steven aka 'Voicedude' — Fri, 16 May 2008 01:01:55 GMT

"The Mother Of All Mashups"

Joel-Steven aka 'Voicedude' — Thu, 08 May 2008 16:39:00 GMT

Just in time for Mother's Day a pair of mashups to celebrate the greatest lady in your life: the first is a bouquet of tunes of various sources extolling the virtues of dear ol' mum: "The Mother Of All Mashups" featuring: "I'll Always Love My Mama" by The Intruders "Mama Used To Say" by Azure "I Love You Mama" by Mr. Vegas "Take Ya Mama Out" by Scissor Sisters "Mama's Pearl" by Jackson 5 "Dear Mama" by Tupac ...plus bits & pieces of Queen, Temptations, Abba, Styx, and Stephen Lynch.

"Another Song For Mama"

Joel-Steven aka 'Voicedude' — Wed, 07 May 2008 16:16:35 GMT

The second in my Mother' s Day duo, this is a heartfelt tune for those who cannot be with mom, for one reason or another. Even if you get emotional during this one, I'm sure she's still very proud of you! "Another Song For Mama" featuring: "A Song For Mama" by Boyz II Men "Mama" by Genesis thanks for everything, ma.........

"Super Mario Booty"

Joel-Steven aka 'Voicedude' — Thu, 01 May 2008 21:40:03 GMT

It started out pretty much for laughs, but friends tell me this is actually 'something'. What? I don't know - but although it is merely a rap over a groove, it does seem to fit pretty well. And it might even induce a smile... "Super Mario Booty" featuring: "Miss New Booty" - Bubba Sparxxx "Super Mario Bros." themes ...now stop throwing those turtle shells at me! - Voicedude

"Girls Just Wanna Believe"

Joel-Steven aka 'Voicedude' — Wed, 23 Apr 2008 21:21:30 GMT

A double slice of cheese using divas Cyndi & Cher. Maybe one needs an extra dollup of estrogen to enjoy this, but here it is anyway... "Girls Just Wanna Believe" featuring: "Girls Just Wanna Have Fun" by Cyndi Lauper "Believe" by Cher

"Destiny's Madness"

Joel-Steven aka 'Voicedude' — Thu, 03 Apr 2008 08:30:40 GMT

Thanks to access to a really great acapella, I have once again set the Fab Four up as a dance band. Some Euro / Syntho / Techno Pop cheesiness with the lads from Liverpool - just in time for the tax season! "Just A Little Tax Crush" featuring: "Tax Man" - The Beatles "Jellyhead" - Crush "Ooh Ahh, Just A Little Bit" - Gina G

The Bittles - "Because"

Joel-Steven aka 'Voicedude' — Tue, 25 Mar 2008 05:22:15 GMT

My very talented daughter Brittany (known to family and friends as 'Bitty') got obsessed with the Across The Universe soundtrack and recorded an acapella version of "Because" by The Beatles on her Arizona Stop MySpace website. I took her acapella and mixed with the original Beatles tracks, and the result is a new group: The Bittles! The Bittles - "Because" featuring The Beatles and Brittany 'Bitty' Hammond

"War Bombs '08"

Joel-Steven aka 'Voicedude' — Tue, 18 Mar 2008 14:39:27 GMT

A very UN-happy Fifth Anniversary! I can't believe we are still in this unjust profit venture we call the Iraq War. When I made my first post here one year ago, I never dreamed we'd still be stuck in it. So while holding my peace high (and lowering the index finger just for 'W'), I present this year's version of last year's mashup. It's called "War Bombs '08" ...and it mashes the following songs: "You Dropped A Bomb On Me" by Gap Band "War" by Edwin Starr "War Pigs" by Black Sabbath "Bombs Over Baghdad" by Outkast and now, "Beds Are Burning" by Midnight Oil We have all suffered through FIVE years of this piece of Shi'ite war! Since music not only has the power to entertain but ALSO to make us think, I dedicate this with total love, respect, and support to the troops who've been unnecessarily put in harm's way. Comments are always welcome.... Peace. - Voicedude

Black Door Or White Santa

Joel-Steven aka 'Voicedude' — Thu, 06 Dec 2007 21:49:41 GMT

A naughty holiday tune about a perennial philandering philanthropist. When you think about it, Clarence Carter is the original 'bad Santa', and Jacko is still 'Bad'. Clarence Carter - Back Door Santa Michael Jackson - Black Or White Ho, Ho, Ho's!

"Dreidel All The Way"

Joel-Steven aka 'Voicedude' — Sat, 01 Dec 2007 01:37:43 GMT

I took "Channukah Rap" by Disney Records' children's recording artist Craig & Co. and used it as the base jam, and then added "Jingle Bells" by the Three Weissmen along with cuts from "Get Your Dreidel On" by Pudie Tadow, "Hannukah Song" by Adam Sandler, a children's version of "O, Channukah", and the classic "Harvey And Sheila" by Allan Sherman. The resulting combination could make you plotz! Oy! I should lay off the Manischewitz!

"Imagine Yourself A Merry Little Christmas"

Joel-Steven aka 'Voicedude' — Sat, 01 Dec 2007 01:22:20 GMT

First imagine an unexpected visit during a cold winter's day from a old friend who was taken away from us so many Decembers ago.... Now imagine the warm, fuzzy kum-by-yah feeling of John Lennon's perennial "Imagine" spread over a light, jazzy seasonal flavor of "Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas", with a little help from Rockapella. If Lennon had gone Lounge.......

I wanted to find a perfect match for this 'pella and I think I was very fortunate when I tried it out with these tracks, in particular this remixed version I found. Better than anticipated, really. It's called "Falling In September" It's The Beatles "I've Just Seen A Face" over Earth, Wind, & Fire's dance classic "September". There's also two versions: THIS version and a Club Mix with a longer intro and outro for playout mixing.

Joel-Steven aka 'Voicedude' — Sat, 21 Apr 2007 05:30:37 GMT

A sports themed mash-up using various musical artists & movie soundbites - too many to mention individually. Released at the perfect time of the year for sports: we just finished with March Madness and The Masters, just got started with baseball, getting into the play-offs for hockey and basketball, and there's also football (NFL draft, Arena football, and of course soccer). With that in mind, I present this tree and a half minute barrage of sports music, soundbites, and sound effects I call the "Ultimate Sports Drink". It's dubbed the '07th Game Mix because I made the original version in 2001 and have now reworked and remixed this newest version for 2007.

Joel-Steven aka 'Voicedude' — Wed, 21 Mar 2007 21:34:42 GMT

UN-happy Fourth Anniversary! Just last Sunday, I have finished my second in at least three socially relevant mash-ups from me this year. It's called "War Bombs" ...and it mashes the following songs: "You Dropped A Bomb On Me" by Gap Band "War" by Edwin Starr "War Pigs" by Black Sabbath and "Bombs Over Baghdad" by Outkast It guess it's obvious what it's about. And now we have all suffered through FOUR years of this piece of Shi'ite war! Music has the power to entertain, to make us dance, but also to make us think. I dedicate this with total love, respect, and support to the troops who've been unnecessarily put in harm's way. Comments are always welcome.... Peace. - Voicedude
