MASH IT LIKE A...er, mashed potato? Ahem.

Yo, suicide might be painless but a bad mash-up HURTS LIKE HELL. So I've made two of them.

Since mash-ups can serve as a form of music criticism in and of themselves, I won't comment further. Also I'm really tired and just spent like two hours photoshopping an effing trumpet onto Miley Cyrus's hand. (See, it's the sheet music!)

  1. so you're saying miley is a sell-out? and britney is... a has-been punchline?

    these are very well done -- what did you use to make them?

  2. Don't actually have any beat-match etc. software, so I just used a copy of Final Cut Pro, since I'm fairly proficient with it. Did intuitive beat matching with slowing up/down + minor edits and then used (I think GarageBand?) pitch shift effect.

    I think these are more musical in their commentary -- Miley sounds more natural in front of the ska, and the Hammer thang complements Britney in a way that the synth prod on the original doesn't. (Feels a bit less like being hit in the head with a sledgehammer.) (We need to catch up by the way, life is finally starting to slow down a bit again...)
