YouTube user avoidantconsumer recently posted a mashup video that combines scenes from 80s brat pack movies with Phoenix's "Lisztomania". In the video's description section, she simply says, "this song just struck me as 80's movie-ish. so i made it happen."

Jaydiohead - Dirt Off Your Android from Andrew French on Vimeo.
In 2004, Danger Mouse coupled an a-cappella version of Jay-Z's "The Black Album" with tracks made from samples off an album by The Beatles' (commonly referred to as the "White Album") to create the mashup entitled "The Grey Album". Now, five years later, New-York-based producer Max Tannone (a.k.a. Minty Fresh Beats) has mixed Jay-Z vocals with Radiohead tracks to create "Jaydiohead".
You can get the album over BitTorrent, or preview all ten tracks at the Jaydiohead promotional site. I've also included a video of one of my favorites, "Dirt Off your Android", at the top of this post for your listening and viewing pleasure.

Artist Josh Poehlein is working on a series of photo collages called Modern History. Interestingly, they are made exclusively of screen grabs from YouTube videos. They are big, bold, and raw. And best of all, he is offering free links to download hi-res versions of the images, which can be used to make large prints of the work.
Like Zadi mentions on today's episode, we're hosting a video mashup event with a chance to win an EPIC FU t-shirt! Here's how you can participate:
If nothing else, we will always know that Bill O'Reilly knows how to get a party started. I can see the hands flying up in the nightclub air right now... And just in case you missed the original, here you go.
