I was going to put this up on Wednesday night but got sidetracked until now; my apologies. My next mashup spotlight will be a week from tonight, I promise.
I'm sure many of you know that one of Elvis's favorite dishes was a fried peanut butter and banana sandwich. To me at least it sounds like an odd combo, but back in 2003 when I was in Memphis for a few days with some friends for Spring Break, I ate at a restaurant that offered up the dish, and it was pretty damned good. To me that's what mashups can be like too; putting together two or more things that you'd swear would never go together well, but end up doing so. For example, the song I'm spotlighting here...
The industrial metal band known as Rammstein and the 80's rap duo Rob Base and DJ E-Z Rock are two groups that you would swear could never go together in any way, yet with Sean McColgan's It Takes Du, he combined the former's Du Hast and the latter's It Takes Two to great effect, with the music from the metal band and the rapping from the rappers. It works very well, take my word for it. There's also a brief cameo from a famous disco song from the late 70's. I'm sure you'll like it as much as I do.
Note that I haven't been able to find any working website for Sean McColgan (SMC) but I did find a working link for the mashup, so that's what I'm using here.
