Unfortunately, the yousendit link is only going to last a short time so anyone looking to download will have to go elsewhere (themixingbowl.com has it)

That's how the link was sent to me, i'll find the link to the mixing bowl version of it. posted by empath at 7:20 AM on January 30, 2006
Cool feat. A bit too ADD for me to appreciate it as anything other than an excercise, though. posted by goodnewsfortheinsane at 7:21 AM on January 30, 2006

Brought a smile to my face. posted by sourwookie at 7:27 AM on January 30, 2006
Yeah, I liked this in spite of myself. And the yousendit link is still working fine. posted by smackfu at 7:30 AM on January 30, 2006
Has anyone tried to ID all the songs? posted by smackfu at 7:32 AM on January 30, 2006
This made for a fun listen. I remember trying to put together something like this as a teenager, armed with only a stack of CDs and a portable radio with a pause button. I didn't get very far. posted by you just lost the game at 7:33 AM on January 30, 2006
There's a full tracklisting in the Mixing Bowl link, if you don't mind signing up for an account. posted by empath at 7:40 AM on January 30, 2006
Neat.
Any legal implications about doing something like this?
I want to see the lawsuit... posted by slimepuppy at 7:45 AM on January 30, 2006
If he was distributing the mix, there would be legal issues. But this was done for BBC Radio 1, so it falls under the same rules that any dj playing music on the radio does. posted by empath at 7:48 AM on January 30, 2006
Here's the song list, for those who don't want to create an account just to see it. posted by smackfu at 7:51 AM on January 30, 2006
Isn't this just a beat with 150 odd vocal tracks one after another? I was expecting a bit more of the original songs to remain. Maybe I don't know enough of the the songs used to recognise them. posted by Orange Goblin at 8:01 AM on January 30, 2006
It's not just one beat through the whole song. But yeah, he does keep the music going from some songs for much longer than others. posted by empath at 8:09 AM on January 30, 2006
About 15 years ago some friends and I decided to try to catalog every sample in The Beastie Boy's Paul's Boutique. I'm pretty sure we never even came close. posted by sourwookie at 8:37 AM on January 30, 2006
It's just Aquasky, no DJ - it's (at last count) three chaps.
Ableton Live has made it far easier to do things like this nowadays. Not to detract from what they've done - it's still fun.
Oh wait.. The Killers just arrived. It's like they just shat in my coffee. Oh well.
I still prefer Freddie Fresh's far less technically accomplished and super-obscurist 500+ tune full length mixes, though. posted by coach_mcguirk at 11:26 AM on January 30, 2006
sourwookie, perhaps you'd be interested in this work of Paul's Boutiquescholarship. posted by box at 12:37 PM on January 30, 2006
Small quibble: The name of the Osymyso track is actually "Intro-Inspection". It's a much more enjoyable track as opposed to a technical challenge. posted by dhartung at 1:07 PM on January 30, 2006

It was interesting to listen to once. Not something I'd play at a party either, unless the crowd was hyperactive. posted by Eideteker at 6:04 PM on January 30, 2006
If you enjoy mashups, try out Party Ben's stuff. He is part of the staff at KITS 105.3 (in San Francisco); amongst the more enjoyable stuff he's done or been part of (imho) is the Subsonic show (hosted by Aaron Axelsen that is, sadly, no more. posted by hyperlith at 8:58 PM on January 30, 2006
