Well this is a nice surprise – Dan Deacon today released Wish Book Volume 1, a surprise mash-up tape comprised of 5 songs and a dizzying breadth of sample material. In his own words:
Hope you enjoy. Wish Book Volume 1 was made with music made by (in order of appearance): grimes+psy+beach house+skrillex+diplo+nicky da b+dirty projectors+lil wayne+nicki minaj+oneohtrix point never+tune yards+animal collective+rod stewart+the strokes+wiz khalifa+beyoncé+lcd sound system+death grips+ludacris+rihanna+the beatles+roy orbison+silver apples+katy perry+69 boyz+gary glitter+james brown+lmafo+black dice+the ronettes+r. kelly+black eyed peas+lenny kravitz+the misfits+2 chains+daftpunk+led zeppelin+the notorious b.i.g.+devo+lightning bolt+unknown artist recorded in jaipur, india+marvin gaye+radiohead+rage against the machine+salt n peppa+brian eno+madonna
In the span of the first track, which is literally titled “Gangrimes Style”, alone, you get some extremely rewarding segments pairing PSY with Beach House and Nicki Minaj with tUnE-yArDs – in other words, listen to this as soon as you possibly can.
Update: We’ve tagged and converted the soundcloud .wav files: download the mix in 320kpbs mp3.
