This is a bizarre end to a bizarre life, made all the more bizarre by the fact that Jackson, who was unlike anyone else in so many ways, made his name performing music that convinced everyone else that he was like them in so many ways. His best songs tapped into universal emotions: jealousy, lust, anger, confusion, and, frequently at first and less often as he aged, joy. There was abiding hope that he would one day return with a record worthy of his talents, and though in recent years it seemed unlikely, he specialized in the unlikely. Everyone knows the songs. Jackson leaves behind three children and hundreds of millions of fans. - Michael Jackson, 1958-2009

07. Michael Jackson - The Way You Make Me Feel
Bad (1987)
note: A list I made around the time Michael Jackson passed away. I thought he was a significant pop figure that deserve a note. What I remember from him is his ‘Bad’ album, I like his ballads. They are incredibly sweet, but the up tempo disco stuff not so much. The strict rhythm leave me somewhat antiseptic. (I was listening to a lot of jazz at that time.) But maybe it suppose to be that way, a little like a late night party, somewhat exhausted, but the excitement still linger. The energy and sentiment doesn’t quite match each other but the heart refuse to let go. So here is a little late night post party list. Excess and decadent sort of party, just like the 80’s. House. One to remember the King of Pop.
btw, Undomondo has a little podcast from Kompakt. Excellent minimalist house mix.
PS. thank you everybody for the fund drive. (If the site goes a little glitchy for few days. be patient, use MdM forum.)

In honor of the late, great King of Pop, we have assembled a Top 10 list of our all-time favorite Michael Jackson mashups, listed here in alphabetical order by bootlegger. Nine different MJ songs are represented, with the iconic "Billie Jean" pulling double-duty as both an instrumental and acapella base. It's interesting that most of these were produced by European bootleggers, most notably Austria's DJ Schmolli, who produced three of the mashups on this list. No wonder Michael was planning his comeback in Europe!ComaR - I Want You D.A.N.C.E.

In addition to Culture Bully’s annual list of the year’s best mashups, we’ve asked a few friends to join us this year by sharing their lists as well. In addition to the lists and commentaries we’re offering mp3 downloads of each of the mashups listed below. Thank you for reading Culture Bully, and I hope you enjoy these lists.

The Top Mashups of 2008 by The Abrahammer
#1) Immuzikation “One More Time To Pretend” (mp3)
Immuzikation threw down so much hot shit this year it was hard to choose the best track. Even though this is a pretty simple mashup, I can’t listen to either of these tracks anymore without wishing I was hearing both.
(MySpace)
#2) Ludachrist “Soul on Ice” (mp3)
In preparation for an upcoming LP, Ludachrist put out the Legend of Curtis EP. The three tracks manage to live up to the brilliance of Bangfest even if they are more “traditional” mashups. “Soul on Ice” is my favorite of the three, though I am a little sore that they copped the Zelda sample in the title track! (Just kidding, of course.)
(MySpace)
#3) E603 “Crystal Friend” (mp3)
E603 also put out an excellent mashup record this year called Something for Everyone. It was hard to choose a best track because the album rocks pretty consistently, but “Crystal Friend” wins because of the OCDJ sample - nice!
(MySpace)
#4) DJ Lobsterdust “Put On The Red Light” (mp3)
Lobsterdust and I have shared posts on Culture Bully twice (it’s been an honor both times) so I figured he deserved a spot on the list. This track blows me away, the vocals build perfectly with the music.
(MySpace)
#5) Easter Egg “Birds” (mp3)
Girl Talk’s #1 competitor dropped a monster of an album earlier this year called “Jackin for Beats.” Birds is my favorite of the bunch - the Crystal Castles and The Cure samples are vital. (Download the entire album here.)

The Top Mashups of 2008 by Copycat
This year I’ve tried to more decisively branch out into the remixing territory. Among other things, I did a few different versions of Radiohead’s classic, “Creep,” and one for Yazoo, “Nobody’s Diary,” just in time for their reunion tour, which both rendered a bit of attention. And my remix of Dean Martin’s “Mambo Italiano” was also pretty well received. I’ve also been dabbling quite a lot with my own original stuff - hopefully 2009 will be the year of the Cat, and not the Copycat. But don’t hold your breath. It still sucks in so many different ways…
Obviously, I did a few mash-ups as well. The ones getting the most attention were “Stand By For The Floor” (Hot Chip vs Ben E King), “A Smalltown Monday Solution” (New Order/Bronski Beat/Superbass/more) and “Does Your Homosapien Know” (ABBA vs Pete Shelley of the Buzzcocks). My contribution to the Scissor Sisters mash-up project, “Golden Lights” (SS vs Klaxons) also got a fair bit of attention - not least down under, where Triple J seem to have grown fond of it. Other popular, more recent, ones include “Lady Jacqueline” (Lady Gaga vs Franz Ferdinand) and “Singing that A-ha Melody” (A-Ha vs Swingfly). Two tunes I’m rather proud of. Simply, yet effective jobs.
I’ve also kept rather busy contributing to Audio Porn Central, where I try to drop some fave tracks in general, and Scandinavian ones in particular. Currently, I’m involved in one of APC’s Guilty Pleasure projects, doing a remix, which should be out any minute now. Apart from that, I’ve promised Moscow’s biggest and most popular underground radio station at least one DJ-set. I usually avoid that. Mostly because I’m too lazy. And as I’m not that into long mixes with mere simple transitions, I got a decent amount of work cut out for me in the next few weeks - or months, knowing me.
My fave mashups of 2008 (my spellchecker suggest “mishaps”… not too far from the truth sometimes… at least my own…)

Top Mashups of 2008 by ComaR
ToToM “What’s My Bloom” (mp3)
A real “mashup” to me, Kurt’s voice got changed on some parts to fit the music and it’s a perfect genre clash.
(Nirvana vs Snoop Doggy Dogg)
(Official) (MySpace)
DJ STV SLV “Shut Up, American Boy” (mp3)
Two mega-hits of the year perfectly mashed, can’t find better.
(Estelle feat. Kanye vs Ting Tings)

PhatBastard “Move Girl” (mp3)
Mashing those teo tracks was so inappropriate and the result sounds so good.

(MySpace)
DJY alias JY “Duffy Train Running” (mp3)
Well… I just like it a lot.
(Duffy vs Doobie Brothers)
(MySpace)
Party Ben “Let There be Love” (mp3)
I didn’t liked the first mashups I heard of “Love Lockdown,” this one helped me to get used of Kanye’s vocoderised voice and when I heard the original one, I loved it.
(Justice vs Kanye West)
(Official) (MySpace) (Wikipedia)

(MySpace)
Of course there were tons of great records this year, however these seem to have been played the most by me and gotten the best reaction overall. I’m sure there are tons of tracks I totally forgot about when I made this list and I am very sorry, it was a long year.

The Top Mashups of 2008 by Bobby Martini
DJ Fac “I Kiss A Girl When Things Explode” (mp3)
I actually heard this before Perry’s original and it blew me away upon first hearing. It gives a whole new twist on a very over mashed track (even by me lol) and I still listen to it today and enjoy it the most of all the Perry mashups.
(Katy Perry vs Unkle)
(Official) (MySpace)
Colatron “Twin Hearts” (mp3)
This stood out amongst everything else at the time. So different, very kitsch but very entertaining at the same time. I also believe this was the catalyst for Mashed In Plastic. I remember saying at the time that I could imagine Kylie performing this on stage… and I reckon she still might.
(Kylie Minogue vs Twin Peaks)
(Official)
LeeDM101 “Jesus Doesn’t Care” (mp3)
Probably the most recent on my list. I just can’t stop playing it at the moment. Some may say the two tracks are an obvious choice but so what ! It works and Lee has done a bloody fine job with that live pella - I have tried and failed a few times using it because of the poor quality - top marks all round - a truly great mash.
(Depeche Mode vs Fall Out Boy)
(Official)
Bobby Martini “Killer Client” (mp3)
I realize that this might sound like a bit of an ego trip, nominating one of my own, but I don’t care (lol). I was introduced to Client this year by a good friend and soon realized what a great band they are. This mash was one of the most enjoyable I have ever worked on and I used a totally different recording set up for it too. I got some of the best response from this mash I have ever had and it introduced a lot of people to Client - which is no bad thing. It’s one of the few mashups I have produced that I still enjoy listening to today.
(The Killers vs Client)
(Official)
Simon Iddol “Wrong Seduction” (mp3)
I had the privilege of hearing this track when it was still a demo and I knew it would be one of Simon’s best straight away. To me it easily sounds like something EBTG would release. A great pairing made in mashup heaven. Ideal on an empty beach in the evening with a martini.
(Everything But The Girl vs Snoop Dog)
I’m currently finishing off an EP inspired by the film Blade Runner. “It’s been a long time in the making because I have been back to the drawing board with it on a number of occasions. I’m also working on some new Peter Gabriel and Client stuff which should be released within the first quarter of 2009.”
The Top Mashups of 2008 by ToToM
Flying White Dots “Vanity” (mp3)

Sugamotor “Wouldn’t Nine Lives Be Nice” (mp3)
(Midnight Juggernauts vs. Beach Boys)

Divide and Kreate “Until it Talks” (mp3)

Same backing track but they’re both great, pick the one you want if you can’t decide.

9. La confianza, por ejemplo, en que una mezcla de cocaina y extasis produce poder. Chingate, antes, tu cruda. Quema tus suelas y tus neuronas: no más.

I haven’t posted a mashup in a while (besides that Satisfaction one from yesterday) so I figured I’d direct your attention to mashuptown where I poached this piece of brilliance!
MP3: DJ Schmolli - Justice for Billie Jean (D.A.N.C.E. vs. Billie Jean)

A plus D - Believe In Sexual Eruption (Snoop Dogg vs. Cher) - San FranciscoOne wouldn't think there would be much in common between Snoop Dogg and Cher. But there was just something about Snoop's new single that seemed familiar ... what was it? Hey, that's a vocoder on his voice! Hmmm ... what other famous pop song used a vocoder to great effect? It's all about finding the common thread, and putting together a duet with two unlikely partners!BootOx – Brick and Stop (Q-Tip vs. The Commodores) - Munich, Germany So simple, yet so smoove, so good, with a bunch of random samples throw in for good measure. This is the first Bootie Top 10 appearance by the crazy BootOx, one of the resident DJs and promoters of Bootie Munich. This was one of the "battle" tracks for the fierce boxing-ringed DJ battle between the BootOx and Schmolli. We decided it's a tie, since they both have tracks in the Top 10 this month.DJ Le Clown - Eko Bitch (Martha & the Muffins vs. Busta Rhymes) - FranceThe first of three French bootleggers in this month's Top 10 - yes, France is the new hotbed of mashup talent! DJ Le Clown's productions are always intricately crafted and well-produced, as he tends to use unconventional source material, with added beats and samples, giving his mashups a unique sound.DJ Lobsterdust - It's Fun To Smoke Dust (Queen vs. Pastor Gary Greenwald vs. Midfield General) - New York City"Oh no, not Queen! Not 'Another One Bites The Dust'" Yup, here it is again, with an extremely fresh take, courtesy of DJ Lobsterdust, who unearthed a 1982 sermon by Pastor Gary Greenwald. Did you know that playing this song backwards reveals Satanic messages designed to corrupt and enslave the young minds who listen to it? Yup, "it's fun to smoke marijuana!" This track is pure excellence.DJ Magnet - Chicago Bump (Bootie Edit) (Chicago vs. Amanda Blank vs. Spank Rock vs. Bloodhound Gang vs. Greg Kihn Band vs. Detroit Grand Pubas) - Denver, USAIn the wrong hands, "everything but the kitchen sink"-style mashups tend to collapse under the cluttered weight of their multiple source material. But not when it's being done by someone like Bootie Denver's resident DJ Magnet. Here, he skillfully crams it all in, and - in this special "Bootie edit" - even brings in the original Chicago tune for a chorus. This one is Mysterious D's new favorite.Mighty Mike - Standing On My Shoulders (The Do vs. The Gossip) - FranceNope, we didn't know the vocal either. But this one grew on us. First off, with all the mashups that use the "Standing In The Way of Control" vocal, we had completely forgotten how good the original Gossip song is - even without Beth Ditto's voice. Replacing her here is the singer for the French band The Do ... and it's mashups like these that had us Googling them in order to check out their originals. And that's what good mashups should make you do, furthering our belief that a mashup can sometimes be an unknown band's best promotion.

Gotta say: I was expecting this at some point, but wasn't expecting this. Leave it to elder statesman DJ Schmolli to flip preconceptions like so many Pogs with his afterparty-as-hell marraige of "D.A.N.C.E." and "Billie Jean". (In mashup, "elder statesman" means four years, BTW.) As opposed to the rawkus floor-filler that comes to mind when you think "Justice meets MJ", Schmolli keeps the steely
