The Hood Internet make mashups — very good mashups, actually — and the occasional mixtape. Now, we didn’t think this morning’s Holy Fuck news could be topped, but then The Hood Internet released a mini-mixtape.
They’ve mixed 6 tracks from Lykke Li’s upcoming album with various things — ranging from Digitalism and Hercules & Love affair to Booka Shade and Gui Boratto — and created something that is surprisingly enjoyable to listen to (not that the original isn’t great or anything).
It’s a free download on their site.

The Kleptones - Bite
I have a long-time love affair with the Kleptones, which is actually just one guy, Eric Kleptone — a play on Eric Clapton, and the fact that he’s a “klepto of tones”. He’s produced 5 full length mashup albums, all available for free from The Kleptones website.
This track comes from A Night At The Hip-Hopera, probably their most highly acclaimed album, which mixes Queen tracks with vocals from popular rap and soundbites from various movies, including many from Ferris Bueller’s Day Off.
To give you some idea of the work that goes into these albums, this track alone samples 4 tracks by other artists — one by Queen, and three by other popular rap and hip-hop artists. Can you name them all? (Don’t cheat!)
