mash-up of cool and classic

there are really few things as cool as the beginning of the eagles "one of these nights." that smoothe buttery opening, exploding to a nearly beegee-esque chorus. what about "since you've been gone?" that chorus, that production work, oh how flawless. now before you download this, i just want you to think, think hard y'all. what do you think this will sound like? now double that (its really freaking good). thank aggro1 for this.

Since You've Been Gone One Of These Nights

The Hood Internet

so, i know you guys know all kinds of stuff about rap music and indie music, but lets be honest there isn't much of an intersection. its not everyday that r. kelly teams up with a bunch of crazy habs to create wonderful music, or that some new york disco dj's feel the miami heat and go really fast.

but wouldn't that be a wonderful world to live it? I sure do think so! enter, the hood internet, two dudes from chicago, ABX and DJSTVSLV, who set the mash-up world on fire with their unique blend of fun and pretension that just lets the skinny jeaned kids dance their nights away. Within the group, ABX is the more epic mixer really working on the mood and sometimes even makes a whole new emotion come out of the same two songs. STV SLV on the other hand is much more about making you doubt your musical existance by doing some ridiculous stuff with songs that don't even sound like could possibly go together.
