Mashups: Aye or Nay? - Spinnertick - 05-07-2012
Iâm just gonna get right to the point, without much hoppinâ around.
Iâve been listening to (and collecting) mashups for about a year or so now, and I visit one of my favorite mashups sites every once in a while to update that collection.
Correct me if Iâm missing an element or to, but my definition of a mashup is more or less:
âA song that consists of two or more previously released songs that are merged, or âmashedâ together in a (usually) harmonious way.â
With that out of the way, the purpose for posting this thread is to ask for the Forumâs general opinion(s) on them.
Do/have you ever listen/listened to mashups before?
What do you think of mashups?
What are your opinions on the legality of mashups?
Are you for/against them, or even just neutral?
Etc.
Obviously this isnât restricted to the above questions.
Simply curious about what people think. Thatâs all.

Kylie minogue's "cant get you out of my head" with New Order's "blue monday"
its called "cant get blue monday out of my head"

never knew there was an official name for them
guess that's what the vs. is for that I see all the time
used to be called a sample, or is that different?
almost as annoying as "featuring"
here's one from Jay-Z

For me the answer is nay - when an artist paints a picture he wants it to stay that way. We don't need a clown coming along and spraying graffiti over the Mona Lisa now do we?
