It's no secret that I like mashup artists. Some may argue that they are hardly artists at all - instead, just talentless bums ripping off the hard work of others. Bums, perhaps. But talentless...(?)
Enter: The White Panda. This dj duo (Griffi and Procrast) sent us their latest track "Tipsy in the Sun" - j.Kwon // weezer - like all their stuff, it can be streamed/downloaded at their site. It's nice, but not a game changer.I did a bit more research into the duo and have since fallen hard for their debut mixtape "Versus" (click for stream/download), that came out in late December. I've been bumping it for a week now - riding my bike, in the car, in the house, wherev. Some highlights include "Golden Encore" Jay-Z // One Republic // The Whitest Boy Alive; "Forgot About September" Dr. Dre // Earth Wind and Fire; and "Army of Yeah" Wiz Khalifa // Usher // Umek & Beltek.
At a seamless hour in length, you're bound to hear something you like, over something else you like. You'll think - "huh, how'd they ever think to combine those?" That's what I like about mashup dj's - good ones can take two things you already like and add them together to make something you like even better.
Got a favorite mashup you think we should hear? Post it to Comments or send it to us.
