Not Too Late To Change The Name

Thursday, May 06, 2004

Lately I've been disgruntled about the new music reaching my ears. I like some of it, don't get me wrong, but on the "alternative" station I listen to it seems like most of the good tracks remind me of some band or another I listened to in high school -- notably the Cure, for some reason (Is there going to be a revival of whiny men in makeup? And would this necessarily be a bad thing?)

Just today, I was listening to the Pixies and wondering when the next thing would come along that would make me say, "What is this insane sh*t?!"

Then I heard it on the car radio. It was the music from "Karma Police" (one of my favorite Radiohead songs) mixed with the vocals from "A Day In The Life" (one of my favorite Beatles songs). Even more bizarrely, I'd listened to both of those songs today. Go hear Karma In The Life for yourself. I'll be downloading the rest of the tracks on that page shortly.

For the record, the other great mash up I've heard recently is Madonna singing "Ray of Light" over the Sex Pistols "God Save the Queen." That stroke of genius is available here.
