MashAnthology (2004-2006) Double LP



NOTICE: NEW IMPROVED DELUXE VERSION of this Album AVAILABLE HERE:
http://djnoti.blogspot.com/2012/05/collected-mashups-vol-i-mashanthology.html

This is the complete collection of DJ not-I blends/mash-ups/bootleg remixes produced in 2004-2006, finally compiled as a double album.

Featuring novel fusions, lots of attitude, D.I.Y. production values and boundless naive enthusiasm, MashAnthology epitomizes my early approach to mixing and mashing as well as my unique take on hip-hop.

The term "anthology", usually reserved for compilations of works by various authors, was consciously chosen to reflect the nature of mash-up making. A couple of tracks have been remastered for the album, but most of them have been preserved in all their (occasionally ragged) glory.

Since 2006, I've branched out to mix and mash a number of genres beyond hip-hop (most notably on the recent Shinobi EP), and my production values have undoubtedly improved. But I'm still quite proud of this "early work". Always aiming at timelessness and "sayin' something", rather than the latest pop fad, I've also been pleased and surprised to see some of these tunes become quite popular indeed.

MashAnthology includes the internet hits Feel All Apologies, Shimmember Me, G'z Up Funk, Spin Dis 1 Ting Round and In the Ghetto Tonight as well as three previously unreleased mash-ups (available below as single tracks). You can also preview and/or download all of the individual tracks on the blog.

I hope you enjoy this collection. And stay tuned as this blog expands to the present with more tunes, compilations and goodies. Thank you for your support.

Love, ~I
