Then there's Oscar Wylde, the eagerly smiling mashup artist (and celebrity in his own right), who also works with a dual approach, pairing well known hits from across genres and history from behind an Ableton deck. ♬ Pharcyde x PortugalTheMan BYNX Mashup - BYNX He brings a visual emotion that hopefully, you'll now imagine our writers typing with as we share new music on EARMILK each day.

His "Songs That Were Meant For Each Other" series shows him, in what we can assume is LA, just as excited about discovering these pairings as he hopes the viewer is. ♬ Dancing In The Moonlight x Pumped Up Kicks - darcy 🍋īYNX heads in a more traditional route, mashing up two tracks-usually from different points in music history-from a DJ deck and a permanent grin. to an absolute jam on toast #whenwomenwin #helloautumn #upcycling Stokes's performances hit the sweet spot of showing the intersections between electronic music and live instrumentation, offering up an aspirational kind of view that we didn't have without a video into making a mashup. Recreating original recordings and beats, artists can show their expertise in taste and in instrumentation, as well as, instead of hiding behind SoundCloud accounts, putting a face and brand out in front of their creations. But that was short lived, as copyright technology improved and the era itself began winding down and shifting to different platforms.Īfter disappearing into the ether for a few years, now, the TikTok era offers a platform for mashups across sound, genre, electronic artist or not, giving the floor to artists like Darcy Stokes, who works with live instrumentation as well as production elements in her mashup selections. Swedish House Mafia, Armin Van Buuren and Hardwell are famous for using such tools in their DJ sets, and the on stage medley became a staple in places like the BBC Radio 1 Live Lounge.įrom there, a niche next generation of the mashup appeared, with artists like Brasstracks tapping into the soul of live music and the love of nostalgia. For years, the mashup remained a behind the scenes tool for artists to wow audiences with at live performances.

But as rights holders and labels took back their power on these streaming sites, mashups weren't an easy, fun, ticket to notoriety. 3LAU launched his career leaning on his talent building mashup sequences. Hardwell famously did this in 2009, bringing Steve Angello & Laidback Luke's "Show Me Love" together with Robin S.'s "Be," attracting major attention that truly led his career to where he is today. While there were a class of artists who did this under anonymity, others jump started their careers after seeing their mashups take off. We watched the ascent of artists who made simple, but brilliant choices in what music to pair together. If you're an OG follower of EARMILK, you have watched some of these artists reach heights on SoundCloud and Mashup Monday. The social platform that thrives on both the momentum of virality, as well as tapping into the niche of individual creators, has seen some new stars emerge who connect the DJ mashup, the live mashup, and video creation of it all, in a completely new way.
