Finally got around to sinking my teeth into Bootie’s annual collection of the best mashups of the year. Sounds like it was a slow year for the genre compared to the previous two but there are some fine grooves here. Bootie’s regular throwdown at the DNA Lounge was recently upped to twice a month so you can rest assured these folks know what they’re doing. You get Amy Winehouse facing off with Britney Spears, Jackson 5 going against Guns N’ Roses, Wild Cherry crashing into Frankie Goes To Hollywood plus 17 more.
Tequila Lip Gloss (Lil Mama vs. The Champs) – DJ Paul V
Standing In The Way Of Connection (Gossip vs. Elastica) – A plus D
Get the whole 75 minute continuous mix as a zip file here or download individual tracks plus some bonus cuts here. You can find links to the best of ’05 & ’06 compilations there as well. And don’t forget to grab the artwork here.
Hey hey! Thanks for posting my mash as one of your fave! That one always still seems to get the dancefloor jammin’!
