DJ N-Wee (Jay-Z vs. Pavement) - The Slack Album (2004)

Genre: mash up
Country of origin: US
Download medium: mediafire.com

4.5/5
Yesterday I got this comment on an old DJ N-Wee post.
Hey, this is "dj n-wee," the guy who did this album. Thanks so much for posting this last year... Godaddy sold my domain out from under me to a spam-squatter in spring '06, so I'm glad that it was still available somewhere. I've recently put up an online album stream and downloads to higher quality MP3 and FLAC versions, along with all the original track writeups, etc. If anyone else comes across this post and still wants this thing, you might also want to pay a visit to theslackalbum dot lossfoundation dot com... Godaddy can't take that one away from me! Cheers.

So I decided to do another upload hoping to give him some more exposure he deserves.

One of the most eccentric mash up albums I've heard, and as far as I know, this is one of the earliest mash up of its kind. I think after this one was released more derived works from others have been released. The Slack Album is a mash up of Jay Z's The Black Album and Pavement's Slanted and Enchanted.

Get it.

Soko - Not Sokute (2007)

Genre: indie pop, folk, twee
Country of origin: France
Download medium: mediafire.com

4.5/5
Please let Soko bring death to conceited lyricists! There are too many narcissistic singer songwriters who think people give a damn about obscurantism. If I wanted unnecessary ambiguity without content, I would go read Derrida. (I am sorry, Derrida readers...)
