"Tell that to Zod's snapped neck!"

Just got to this track, the juxtaposition between music and vocals is brilliant.

The vocals in this sound like an angry man shouting into the void, which is fantastic.

"Tell that to Zod's snapped neck!"


best parts of this mashup:
Misery Business out of nowhere but also perfectly deployed
the realization that all of Taylor Swift's Reputation videos are batshit insane sci-fi stuff

worst parts:
in an entire song of women we really didn't need Kanye and especially not Famous (i get the joke but given the last like, year or so, it's really not funny anymore)
wish they had picked a more recent Selena song

man i wish this were like, 20 times as long, there's a lot of really cool mashups but the format means you get about 10 seconds and its on to the next one

DJ Earworm's one from a few months ago does 10 songs from 2009 vs 10 songs from 2019 and you get more time for each one.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aqz8uc1a79s

ranked:

Gaga/Ava (this is dope, you can hear the Gaga roots in all of Ava's music so these just sound right together)
Taylor/Taylor (the vocals are poorly edited but the idea is really good and the beats go together)
Miley/Halsey (these two sound really good together, plus the Party in the USA beat is a classic)
Kanye/Drake (i wish it was a better Drake song but again you can hear the inspiration Drake gets from 808s)
Bieber/Bieber (less successful than the Swift one, the visual is more interesting than the song)
BEP/BTS (fun, fine)
Bey/Ari (i get the thematic resonance but the songs just sound weird together)
Cudi/Taki Taki (oh man it's so busy)
Lil Nas X/Flo Rida (I get it but they're just a little too different without making it a fun dichotomy)
MGMT/Billie (these just don't go together, the notes sound wrong)

Aside from GT, the mashup I still go back to the most in 2019 is probably Mile(y) High Club from Super Mash Bros. It's got just the right amount of irreverence (rugrats theme/Kick-Push, Whisper Song/In The Air Tonight) while still going hard as gently caress. Plus it has the one thing every album-length mashup needs to be truly successful, at least one Ludacris verse.

edit: i just turned it on again and Wild Wild West/Tonto is loving hilarious

the best music game devs in the world have clearly been reading this thread. I've been a Harmonix fan since the original Guitar Hero on PS2 and this is clearly an attempt to wring something more successful out of the weird card/app game they made (that I got on sale and enjoy on rare occasions since it's a little cumbersome to use), but honestly if they have as much DLC support for Fuser as they have had for Rock Band (that's been going over a decade, aside from the year or so break between gens) this could be really amazing and bring a lot of good content. There's already a good mix in there from what I can tell.

If this is "Dropmix but you don't have to buy a poo poo ton of cards," then I am in

Cause I love Dropmix, but buying cards got very annoying

especially because they all went exclusive to different retailers including TRU who no longer exists, and finding them on amazon was a bitch and a half

They made a whole rear end mashup as an April Fool and it's extremely funny

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w_7fDURD_6A

Honestly these Hood Internet mixes are probably the first mash-ups I’ve heard since All Day that live up to the soundscapes that Girl Talk made, with the possible exception of Mile(y) High Club

It’s a cool way to put a whole bunch of music in its historical context. It’s very easy to read about histories of bands or genres or musical movements but they often feel separate and this just takes a whole bunch of disparate music that came out at the same time and gives you an idea of the individual trends while also still slapping hard as gently caress

This is fun but IMO the superior g4u mashup is here

https://youtu.be/YB-rn6f--XY

It becomes a kind of duet between the petty new girlfriend and the vengeful ex which is fun (and makes Misery Business’ more questionable lyrics more palatable by making her the villain)

United States of pop is freaking rough this year. Not because he mixed it poorly, but because a lot of those songs... are not good.

PopLove is much better. Thank God.

Strong disagree this was my favorite in a few years. Even Ed Sheehan wasn’t as insufferable in the mix. (Drake is the one artist I think could have been left out with no negative repercussions, although the moment with Up also sounds a little off to my ears)

edit: also that Applebees song my brain tries very hard to keep that poo poo out so sometimes I forget that it exists but it is absolutely trash

This is the best of the 10 minute ones (still like that United States of Pop one best though). Deeply annoyed at the Disney+ Ad at the end but it does the best job of melding vibes, especially the back half

The one that got posted most recently was very brave to lead off with a segment built off of the Katy Perry Pokemon song

edit: found another, it’s pretty good except again there are rando clips from tv shows (yes I know the Wandavision one is a song but I’m pretty sure Shang Chi didn’t drop a single this year so)

I actually think All Day is slightly better but all three of the last GT albums are the absolute titans of the genre

I know an easy sample is always gonna win but man 2023 seems particularly stuffed with them. A full half of this is songs jacking What Is Love, Better Off Alone, Logical Song, Praise You, Barbie Girl…

edit: this one is way better, much less (said with as much disgust as I can muster) European

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wsj79-QeDBk

Edit 2: these are also better, all of the ones I’ve posted also lead off with Escapism which never once felt tired or cliche because Escapism is an absolute banger
