I think I'm going off the rails, down in Crazy Train....
Voicedude recently released an Ozzy double pack, and it's really quite excellent. He mashes Crazy Train with LMFAO and then with The Killers. The art of the Mashup - at it's finest!
Do you find Monday's to be a real bitch? Let Betty White help you make Mondays your Sexy Bitch! Here are a couple of Mashups all about self-affirmation. Because I'm bright enough, nice enough, and gall darn it, people like me!
It definitely helps that I'm sexy as hell (and we all know it!)
Now if only somebody would give Duck Sauce' "Barbara Streisand" the "Betty White" treatment. That would be cool!

Wow, September can be a tough month for blogging. I haven't really been in school for 20 years, so it's not easy getting used to "homework" again. Although not really, it's more of a struggle to maintain all my other activities - I'm no stranger to reading and writing. It's the whole doing what other people tell me to do thing that is the struggle. But I'm enjoying it. I still share tonnes of music everyday on Twitter, Facebook and Tumblr, just not a lot in here (because it's so much more work!). The social media is so much easier because I have all three sites linked to my Soundcloud (I really love the Soundcloud App for Android!!!) and YouTube accounts. I click a "like" button and I share across all my accounts - easy peezy!!
Today is MashMike's turn for a go here in the Pit. I have a tonne of his music on my player, but somehow I don't seem to have posted allot of his stuff here. An oversight I aim to fix immediately!! I encourage everyone to vote for his awesome tunes over at the Mashup-Charts.

I am really loving the new tune from Maroon 5 - Moves Like Jagger (here's an unofficial, but much sexier version). It's only been out a month or so and already there are some great mashups floating around for it. And here are a few of the better ones (imho, of course). To start with I've a couple "traditional (Mashpit-style) mashups, where a bunch of songs (including "Jagger" of course) have been given a deluxe mashing, and set quite skillfully to mashed videos. After that though I've decided to do it a little different (for the Pit at least). I hope you enjoy these songs as much as I do.

Like most of my favorite mashup artists, it has been too long since I last shared anything from the DJ's From Mars. Today I have two of their latest, and both are brilliant. The Party Rock mash is typical get-you-outta-your-seat-and-shaking-that-booty songs that they always make. But the Amy Winehouse tribute is honest-to-God beautiful, and if you've lost as many friends to this disease as I have, it just may bring a tear to your eye.
I've been slacking just a tad here at the Pit. Life happens some times, and I'm grateful it does! In the mean time the mashups keep piling up. DJ Earworm finally released a new video a few weeks ago, and here it is, with a couple of his classics.
It has long been my opinion that Earworm is the King of Mashups. I'm not saying he's necessarily my favorite (although he is one of them), but that he is the most popular and most successful. For example, here's what he wrote on his latest (Mega) Mashup:
"I made this music video mashup to be shown as part of a concert at Wembley Stadium in London for Capital FM's Summertime Ball, where all fifteen of these artists performed." I know of no other mashup DJ's anywhere near this level. Although it would be nice to see more of them achieving something close to this.
