I'm really glad you enjoyed your time on this site. Adobe Audition is also what I use for my mash-ups. Do you have a link to the final mix you created from those two songs you mentioned? If so, I would like to hear it. Thanks again for your comments! Thanks for the note, Guillem! I’m really glad you enjoyed your time on this site. Adobe Audition is also what I use for my mash-ups.

I felt into your webpage this evening, looking for some sufjan steven's stuff. It's been one hour reading some of your stories and experiments, and i have to say i've been really enjoying that time! There are some ideas that i can not take proffit of, 'cos i'm from Barcelona, Spain (starbucks tircks, shit!). Anyway, it's really nice when i hear you talking about that mixing songs and all that, even some bands you mentioned y really don't like it. It would be cool to talk with you and ask about some of the triks u use, or wich software it's well working to that, as i use to use Adobe Audition to this kind of mixing. My last 'mixes in the making' started with great discover. I decided to put one after other two songs, "Magic Position from Patrick Wolf" and "Sunshine by Josh Rouse", and, it was so amazing to discover how well they cross together, in the same tone and almost in the same exact tempo. So... this time i think i can not really help you wih your Doom Pop, but i've found it a really nice idea to share and try to grow something between some people. Lovely! I've never been in canada but i think i would really enjoy it. By the way, how could you get the lasange worm there between the woods? Hi Kevan!

My curiousity has been undeniably piqued. Hey Kevan,

I remember the first time I heard the song, I left the radio on after I pulled into my garage to hear the end of it. How'd an emo band pull that off? Anyway, I wonder what kind of transition track would be needed to move the mix into a more "fun" mode, from the darker tracks I outlined initially? I haven't heard that Lupe Fiasco song, but I'll definitely check it out. Fall Out Boy — nice idea.

I want to hate that song because I hate the band, but it's actually a brilliant premise. After committing all sorts of acts of jackassery, the band realizes that their record label and everyone who counts on them to make money and beat the competition loves watching them crash and burn like Anna Nicole Smith. They then realize that they aren't part of the punk or emo scene at all; it's a pissing contest. Fallout Boy's song is about the epiphany that their hip, white-boy swagger is nothing more than an image, imposed by the label, to make them a weapon for the consumerist war. I don't think they pulled it off properly, but that's what I think they were trying to say, and it's a noble attempt. As a result, the song is surprisingly awesome. In reality, though, I nominate Lupe Fiasco's "Kick, Push." It's brilliant.
