Genre-Bending DJ Mashups & Custom Remixes
I take songs that have no business being together and make them dance. From emo classics to Bollywood bangers, I love creating sonic chaos that actually slaps.
Some ideas are just too funny not to try. This is what happens when Kanye’s ‘Runaway’ meets Vanessa Carlton’s ‘A Thousand Miles’. A 2000s emo earworm blended with a hip hop masterpiece for all the feels.
This blend started on the spot during a live show and it went so hard I had to make a proper edit. It’s MC Altaf's ‘Chhod Bhai’ over the banger ‘Mode’ by Jansons. Call it Chhod Mode.
I had a blast chopping up Kendrick Lamar’s ‘Peekaboo’. I remixed it on a flight between shows, layering it with some Splice goodness on Ableton to make it extra groovy.
A mashup for all the lovergirls out there. I took three of my favorite emo tunes, Sade’s ‘Ordinary Love’ and ‘Sweetest Taboo’ plus Shaan’s ‘Dil Kya Kare’, and blended them together to get you in your feels.
Had a little too much fun with this mix. It’s 50 Cent’s ‘In Da Club’ and ‘Candy Shop’ mashed up with George Michael’s legendary heartbreak tune ‘Careless Whisper’.
How many Rihanna tunes are too many? Here’s Crazy Town’s ‘Butterfly’ layered with three RiRi classics: ‘BBHMM’, ‘Rude Boy’, and ‘Pon De Replay’.
A fun little chop chop with two beloved club tunes. It’s Charli XCX’s ‘360’ mashed with ‘Coke & Rum’. These two tracks just belong together. Issa brat summer after all.
These two tunes were made to melt into each other. It’s Chappell Roan’s ‘Good Luck, Babe!’ mixed with Amy Winehouse’s version of ‘Valerie’. Made especially for the girlies and gays.
A vibey Sunday remix for you. Snoop Dogg’s ‘Sensual Seduction’ blended with the juicy, loopy ‘Tadow’ by Masego and FKJ. The beat switches up midway, so enjoy the ride.
This blend has been looping in my brain for months. It’s Tommy Richman’s ‘Million Dollar Baby’ mixed with ‘Supermassive Black Hole’ by Muse. A perfect example of my random mashup experiments.
About Genre-Bending Mashups
Every track here started as a late-night brain itch I could not ignore. I do not just slap two songs together. I manually warp, key-match, and EQ every single stem to make sure the transition feels seamless, even if the genres sound like they are fighting. If you are looking for a custom edit, know that I treat each one like a mini-production session, so we can nail exactly the mood you need.
My studio is my playground. I live in the space where 2000s emo meets modern hip hop, or where Rihanna takes a stroll with Crazy Town. When I produce a mashup or a genre flip, I am not just hitting sync on a controller. I am in Ableton, chopping vocals, programming new drums, and layering synths to ensure the result hits hard in clubs and on social media.
How I Build Your Sound
Whether you need a custom mashup for a reel or a full genre-flip for your set, I follow a process that ensures quality:
- Stem Processing: I don't work with muddy audio. I clean and EQ everything to make sure the kick drum hits and the vocals stay crisp.
- Technical Precision: Every edit is beat-matched and warped to be DJ-ready. You won't have to worry about the track drifting when you play it out live.
- The 'Weird' Factor: If you have an idea that sounds insane, let me know. I love blending Bollywood classics like 'Woh Lamhe' with unexpected drum n bass elements.
I handle projects from my Mumbai studio and can jump on calls to discuss the vibe you are going for. Since I experiment a lot to get the energy just right, I appreciate some breathing room with timelines, but I promise the final WAV master will be worth the wait.
