dj retrospekt - Retrofit

Cyndi Lauper vs. Diddy - Last Time BEP vs. Salt n Peppa - Push My Humps (DJ Briguy) Missy Elliot vs. salt n Peppa vs. MC Hammer - Can’t Push Gossip Folk Gwen Stefani vs. MC Hammer - Can’t Crash This Missy Elliot vs. Outfield - I’m Hot With Your Love Fergie vs. Madonna - Glamorous Holiday Ying Yang Twins vs. Kool And The Gang - Kool And The Yang Nelly Furtado vs. Eurhythmics - Say It Sweet Belinda Carlisle vs. Nelly Furtado vs. Gwen Stefani - Heaven Is A Place On Earth Eminem vs. BEP vs. Shania Twain - Superman’s Humps Don’t Impress Me Much

Hello people. DJ Retrospekt bringing you a short little mashup mix of my own. I’m venturing away from the typical cheese I usually post on here to give you this one. Retrofit consists of a bunch of 80’s songs mashed up with recent hits. A little bit of my cheesiness can still be found in some of the goofy mashes such as Kool And The Yang and Superman’s Humps Don’t Impress Me Much. The last track isn’t really 80s (although a sample of Tone Loc’s Wild Thing can be slightly heard), but I thought I’d add it since I thought it was funny. Anyway, hope you like it. I apologize for any slight stutters or skips you may hear…I really need a new laptop =(.

Watch out for when Kool And The Yang pops in though, my hand spazzed out on the gain just as I was mixing it in so it comes in sort of loud.  I try to lower it as quickly as I can.

dj retrospekt - Vouvray!

  1. Debbie Deb - When I Hear Music
  2. Buffy - Give Me A Reason
  3. Lil Suzy - Take Me In Your Arms
  4. Angelina - Tide Is High (Remix)
  5. Ann Lee - Two Times
  6. Maximillion - Fat Boy
  7. Amber - This Is Your Night
  8. Buffy - To Find You
  9. Corina - Summertime, Summertime
  10. Fun Factory - Close To You

Alrighty fans, I have decided to post up this mix I made when I was buzzed off Vouvray wine a few months ago. The beginning is a little rough around the edges, but hey, I was partially drunk. The middle however, I think I managed to pull off some nice mixes (although the levels could have been better as pointed out by bakasan). My favorite block is from Take Me In Your Arms through Fat Boy. Also, please excuse the occasional skipping from my crappy laptop.

I love this mix for the song selection, and it was fun to make. I just randomly picked songs as I was mixing. Ann Lee was one of my favorite songs back in the day, and Fat Boy is just one of those funny goofy songs that I liked doing stupid dances to. A lot of these tracks were from my youth (late elementary through early high school). They put me in a happy, dancy mood and bring back lots of memories. I hope you enjoy groovin to it as much as I do.

dj retrospekt - Waiting For Toxic

Here’s a little mashup I did about 2 years ago that I found lying around on my hard drive. I personally think it’s better than either of the original songs.

Britney Spears - Toxic vs. Gwen Stefani - What You Waiting For

dj retrospekt - Late Night Break

Late Night BREAK…get it? Cause it’s a break set? har har har…Anyway, just wanted to try out some vinyl I recently got that I haven’t had a chance to use yet.

First and foremost, this is probably more of a set to listen to in the car or something. It starts off with some break remixes of some classic trance songs and has a really mellow feel to it. Near the end are just some remixes of couple other classic non-trance songs. No planning went into this session so the mood seems to kinda jump randomly with some mellower songs in the middle of heavier beat songs. Also, I jacked the volume up slightly too high near the beginning so theres one point where you can hear me crank it back down near 13 min mark. This was a 100% vinyl set. The beat drifted from me slightly on some of the mixes, but I think I managed to fix them pretty quickly. One major flaw is that I started mixing in Faithless slightly early at a bad transition point so if you listen closely, you can tell I started the mix over. Anyway, the tracks are break remixes of the following:

1. ATB - 9pm Til I Come) 2. Delerium - Silence vs. Paul van Dyke - For An Angel 3. Faithless - Insomnia 4. Three Drives - Greece 2000 5. Nalin & Kane - Beachball 6. Summer Junkies - I’m Gonna Luv U 7. Bucketheads - The Bomb 8. Armand van Helden - You Don’t Know Me 9. Daft Punk - Around The World

All in all, I thought the mixes could have been somewhat better but was a decent mix considering a couple first time runs on some of the songs.
