Mashups! With DJ Hero out, it's time for the long-hidden art of taking songs and smacking 'em together to hit its long-deserved limelight. Today on dTunes, here's a selection of my favorite megamixes from the past few years.


"Lust Train" by CCC
Ingredients: "Lust for Life" by Iggy Pop, "Last Train to Clarksville" by the Monkees, "Paranoid Android" by Radiohead.


"Mother's Little Regulator" by DJ BC
Ingredients: "Regulate" by Warren G and Nate Dogg, "Mother's Little Helper" by the Rolling Stones, "Don't Stop" by Brazilian Girls


"Radiohead v. Coldplay" by Jirob
Ingredients: "The Scientist" by Coldplay, "High & Dry" by Radiohead
Earlier this week, I said Radiohead used to be Coldplay: here's the proof.


"Dr. Who on Holiday" by Dean Gray
Ingredients: "Holiday" by Green Day, "Rock & Roll part 2" by Gary Glitter, Dr. Who theme song
Part of the sublime American Idiot remix project, "American Edit". The website was C&D'd, but it's painfully easy to find on the dubiously-legal download service of your choice.


"Closer to the Boxer" by the Kleptones
Ingredients: "Think About" by Asheru, "The Boxer" by Simon and Garfunkel, "Close to Me" by the Cure
This is just a small part of the ambitious, movie-quote-heavy double album, 24 Hours. Check it out here: http://www.kleptones.com/pages/downloads_24h.html


"Chocolate Radiohead" by Jay Smooth
Ingredients: "Chocolate Rain" by Tay Zonday, "Talk Show Host" by Radiohead
As a longtime Radiohead fan, I find it truly eerie how easily these songs fit together.

Alright! One day left. Tomorrow, I'll go into some of my favorite tunes from the reason we're all here on Dtoid: the videogames. Seeya then.
