Metal Mashup 101: Angel DJ’s Don’t Go Kill

Published by Yuletide on February 10, 2007 in Metal and Music. 2 Comments

My first (crude) attempt to create a mashup… actually came out kind of cool.

[audio:angel_djs_dont_go_kill.mp3]
Download the mp3 here

The songs being remixed are Angel’s Don’t Kill by Children of Bodom, and an vocals-only track of Go DJ by Lil’ Wayne, resulting in Rap-Metal that DOESN’T SUCK!

Created with the application djay using this process:
a) syncing the tempos of the songs
b) using trial and error to line up the tracks, by findind a starting point for each that would maximize the duration of awesomeness (when the songs fit together).

It works real well in the beginning, then falls apart for a bit in the middle, then—incredibly—syncs back up again at the end for a rallying finish… You gotta hear it to see what I mean (and remember, I did NO looping!)

[DISCLAIMER: Copyright whoever. I didn’t make it. Or host it. The communists made me do it. Etc…]
