MIA and Mario Paint were made to go together.

lol this is now #1 for 2017 on the RYM chart

fuckin' right on

the 'Wonderwall' one starts off like something from Limmy's soundcloud page, which I mean in a positive way

AC/VC is killing me

jmm, Thursday, 26 January 2017 19:43 (seven years ago) link

I'm impressed that most of the mashups make me laugh in the first ten seconds but he sees the concept all the way through rather than making into a pure punchline. AC/VC works surprisingly well, for example. Never heard his other albums

So many tigers, it happens to tigers

frogbs, Friday, 27 January 2017 15:16 (seven years ago) link

How do you explain Tim Allen?

jmm, Friday, 27 January 2017 15:24 (seven years ago) link

Man, "Mysterious Ticking Noise" is almost ten years old.

jmm, Friday, 27 January 2017 15:39 (seven years ago) link

The beginning of Wow Wow feels like the pinnacle of mashups

Check the BNM Pitchfork track review, it says Weezer too (imago), Friday, 27 January 2017 16:57 (seven years ago) link

"wow wow" is an incredible jam

who is extremely unqualified to review this pop album (BradNelson), Friday, 27 January 2017 17:10 (seven years ago) link

yeah I'm definitely slotting that, "Bustin", and "Shit" into my party playlist

frogbs, Friday, 27 January 2017 17:13 (seven years ago) link

just about killed myself laughing at ac/vc

Islamic State of Mind (jim in vancouver), Friday, 27 January 2017 17:15 (seven years ago) link

Wallspin really does my head in. It's practically an aural illusion. Amazing that he managed to ruin this song twice.

frogbs, Friday, 27 January 2017 17:28 (seven years ago) link

Seriously. And both times amazingly

Check the BNM Pitchfork track review, it says Weezer too (imago), Friday, 27 January 2017 17:31 (seven years ago) link

lol I just realized he changed "Jim West" to "Jim Dress" on "Wow Wow"

frogbs, Friday, 27 January 2017 17:32 (seven years ago) link

Would say btw - average quality maybe higher than Mouth Silence, jury out on whether he's bested Crocodile Chop or Born To Cat

Check the BNM Pitchfork track review, it says Weezer too (imago), Friday, 27 January 2017 22:40 (seven years ago) link

i think ac/vc is my favourite ever neil cicieraga mashup, competing with crocodile chop and mullet with butterfly wings

Islamic State of Mind (jim in vancouver), Friday, 27 January 2017 22:46 (seven years ago) link

JC/VC is all the more impressive for not seeming to need a ton of processing to make it work

a serious and fascinating fartist (Simon H.), Friday, 27 January 2017 22:47 (seven years ago) link

er AC/VC

a serious and fascinating fartist (Simon H.), Friday, 27 January 2017 22:48 (seven years ago) link

Someone tweeted him showing that that mash-up had already been done (probably not as well but)

Check the BNM Pitchfork track review, it says Weezer too (imago), Friday, 27 January 2017 22:52 (seven years ago) link

i now think 'annoyed grunt' might have bested everything else

Man, "Mysterious Ticking Noise" is almost ten years old.

I remember watching "Hyakugojyuuichi" in middle school like fifteen yrs ago

example (crüt), Saturday, 28 January 2017 17:56 (seven years ago) link

yeah NC was in middle school too p much

He talks about his childhood here. Says that he basically spent all of homeschool making games and animations.

when I found out that this was the same guy who'd done brodyquest who was also the mash up guy it blew my mind

ogmor, Saturday, 28 January 2017 20:15 (seven years ago) link

the interstitial stills on that powerpoint are amazing

This is fun

THE SKURJ OF FAKE NEWS. (kingfish), Sunday, 29 January 2017 01:50 (seven years ago) link

T.I.M.E. actually has some interesting comments on Youtube. The top thread is about the function of the All Star sample at the end. A commenter thinks it undercuts the emotion of the song, whereas Neil chimes in and says that it was meant to "return to the memeverse gently".

jmm, Sunday, 29 January 2017 18:00 (seven years ago) link

lol canyon.mid @ the end

example (crüt), Sunday, 29 January 2017 18:05 (seven years ago) link

Holy fuck @ T.I.M.E.

whoa, I totally forgot about the bonus tracks on Spirit Phone, some of these are incredible

frogbs, Thursday, 2 February 2017 14:39 (seven years ago) link

This guy gives me the fucking creeps and everything of his that I've seen and heard is pervasively smug and/or deeply unfunny. I think the only reason I partially liked Spirit Phone for like a week was because it was a particularly dry spell for vaguely-Cardiacsy-pop-prog-whatever.

ultros ultros-ghali, Thursday, 2 February 2017 15:28 (seven years ago) link

TIME is so good

nxd, Thursday, 2 February 2017 15:30 (seven years ago) link

And yeah, sorry to be 'that guy' but I had to get that off my chest.

I feel much better now, please continue!

ultros ultros-ghali, Thursday, 2 February 2017 15:30 (seven years ago) link

Why does he give you the creeps?

jmm, Thursday, 2 February 2017 15:30 (seven years ago) link

they found so many scorpions inside his lungs
when he died

I Am In Atlanta And Thug Is Young (imago), Thursday, 2 February 2017 15:40 (seven years ago) link

xp I don't even know, honestly, there's just something about this guy that makes me want to bolt; almost definitely has more to do with me than him but I stand by everything else.

ultros ultros-ghali, Thursday, 2 February 2017 15:44 (seven years ago) link

sleek affectless preternaturally gifted internet machine. he is the uncanny valley, almost human but not quite

I Am In Atlanta And Thug Is Young (imago), Thursday, 2 February 2017 15:48 (seven years ago) link

this is Hell

ciderpress, Thursday, 2 February 2017 23:17 (seven years ago) link

he's a freaky man baby

wins, Friday, 3 February 2017 22:43 (seven years ago) link

ok finally got around to listening to the rest of this and wow @ T.I.M.E.

ciderpress, Friday, 3 February 2017 22:59 (seven years ago) link
