This is a classic Chill Room about the history of mashups and dj mixes. Postmodern dj's use existing music as a moving palette to change the ways we listen to it. Here we examine many different types of mashes and talk about what they do and the legality of such use. Turns a number of hit pop records by very famous artists into an avant garde collection of utterly weird, bizarre and hard to find tracks that you can't get on Itunes.
Produced and engineered by dj bennett (chillroom@killradio.org)
