Christmas Song Of The Day 2
If you thought Bob Dylan singing Christmas songs was a little off kilter, today’s special Christmas blend of the Velvet Underground combined with a Christmas classic from Michael Jackson created by the mashup master Divide And Kreate will definitely have you doing a double take. It’s from the holiday mashup compilation Santastic III in 3-D.

Mashed or Fried ?
Mark Vidler as Go Home Productions is a master of the bootleg/mashup. For now though he has decided to put them to rest and focus on his remixing and other career endeavors. Fear not though, for he has just released this 20 song compilation of his work from 2002 to 2007 on his website as a free download. And if you like this, later this month he plans on giving it all away, 16 cds worth of mashups/bootlegs from his archives. Stay tuned.
Mark Says:
It’s a 5 year retrospective of GHP bootlegs.
20 tracks that include personal faves / tracks that have gone down well with the public and a fair few that have led to greater things..
I thought it would be a good idea to put this up now, as there are plenty of individual requests for many of them by folks who have just discovered GHP.
It’s also a taster for the ‘entire’ GHP output being made available next month. Friday 21st September if all goes to plan. I’ve seen a few GHP torrents doing the rounds but they don’t even begin to scratch the surface.I have at least 16 CD’s worth. All remastered. Full artwork and a
fair amount of unreleased/unheard stuff.
…and of course it will put a lid on this particular GHP chapter.
‘Bootlegs’ have been fun but have become
less spontaneous for me in 2007. Mashed’ was initially an exciting
project/prospect but 3 years took it’s toll and really watered it down to the
laughing stock that it was. “Passenger Fever” was fucking cool though. The rest
dated back to 2004…hmmm.
Missed opportunity for all involved really and lessons have been learned by everyone.
I’ll save the nitty-gritty for the autobiography…or a paragraph in the Observer Music Monthly.
So, the bootlegs will be taking very much a back-seat for now. Strapped in securely and
told not to move or ask ‘are we there yet?’
Here’s the tracklisting and a few samples.
