On Monday I posted a link to Good Blimey's huge collection of mashups. Since then, I figured out the easy way to download the songs from the playlists (I use Firefox, and in the file section there's a "Save Page As..." feature; ridiculously easy, and I only figured it out now...) and listened to a smattering of those tunes. There are many gems in there, but so far the best one is from a person or group that as far as I know doesn't make mashups anymore.
I really can't tell you much of anything about Batchelor Royale, except that he/they were around a few years ago. I recognize the name but I don't recall hearing any B.R. songs before. The one I'm talking about here combines two common tunes that get mashed up, Usher's Yeah! and the Bee Gee's Stayin' Alive. Actually, this tune mainly uses the N-Trance remix of the song, but some of the original vocals are also there. There is another surprise sample or two in the mix. Overall, it's a kick-ass mashup and it's unfortuate that B.R. doesn't appear to be in this field anymore.
Here is a direct download link to the song:

I'll be back on Saturday (probably in the evening) with a new mashup to spotlight.
