Black Horse and the Tambourine

Beck's "Black Tambourine" vs KT Tunstall's "Black Horse and the Cherry Tree." A MeFi exclusive!

Yes, I make mashups. This is the first track posted anywhere from an upcoming EP of mine. It'll hopefully will be finished and released in the next few weeks since I've got a vacation coming up so stay tuned!

Haha, I love this.

My only complaint is that slowing down "Black Horse" really kills a lot of momentum... I'd recommend speeding up "Tambourine" instead. But for all I know you tried that and it wasn't feasible for one reason or another; I don't make mashups. Either way, nice work!

i don't know the originals, but I quite like this. Great fun and great vibe.

"Black Horse" is actually sped up about 4 BPM to match "Tambourine's" 108. I'll knock it all up to 110 and upload a higher-quality version in a sec; I just noticed that the sample rate was turned down quite a bit.

I just listened to this again and I don't know what I was thinking before. There's buttloads of momentum here and it's made of awesome. Again, excellent work.
