This Mash up live on Resonancefm (5th Track) is my favourite. Who else is going to play a Brazilian folk song with a John Cage piece?

What a rad post. What a lame comment.

Cola-who? Cola-hey! Hehe…that would be me, your friendly neighbourhood Colatron. Possibly the most disliked guy in mash, although I did make the Anti-hit list twice in my first 11 months of making this stuff so it isn’t all bad. Mash mates with Bobby Martini himself, too (any chance to give him a free plug…he’s ace!)

It’s amazing what you stumble across when you Google your own name. Hattie, whoever you are, cheers for the vote! I may make you a tune in dedication for your support!

As for the list, great to see CC won, as he was consistently the top guy of 2007, and it’s well deserved. Anything by Lenlow would automatically get on a list for me, but yeah, out of all these tracks, DJ Erb would have been the one for me. I remember the first time I heard it, it was like “Woah!”.

Personally though, I would have probably chosen 10000 Spoons “Sweet Killers” for its simple but and addictive charms, or anything Flying White Dots came up with. FWD for President!

After a not-too-productive 2007 for me I’m both surprised and delighted to be included on this list. Have a great 2008.

If you mean the Police/Snow Patrol mashup…unfortunately I think I’ve gone on record saying that mashups can sometimes take two pieces of music that I have little to no interest in and combine them, in the process making something interesting and beautiful in the process. That being said I think I’ve also made it abundantly clear that I have no taste for neither Snow Patrol, nor The Police’s brands of adult contemporary teasing mush. In this scenario, just so happens that I felt combining the two did little to make a piece of music worth listening to.

That being said, diggers proved that my tastes probably don’t represent those of the majority:

Thanks for the words…seems like my ears piss some people off every year – dead on, don’t like the songs, link to some that are better…like you, I’m always on the lookout for great tracks.

Hey chris, cheers for the inclusion! I have to say I agree with others in stating some of these are perfect picks and some not so much for me anyway. However I believe people should remember that this is a personal top 15 list or whatnot… If someone here believes a track not listed here should have made it- go off and blog your own personal top 15, 20, 100 =) mashups of the year. I’m fond of hearin’ when people dig my tracks and definitely appreciate the inclusion here. Cheers to you sir and here’s to a great year of mashing and those that will come! Happy New Year!
