You know we mentioned we were launching new sites? Well, as part of the launch of one of them, we’ve commissioned a mash-up. And it seems to have broken a world record.
The Quietus asked DJ Osymyso to concoct a sonic puzzle which draws its sources from the last 35 years of music to represent the wide spread of genres that the site covers. What came back blew our minds. Hear it HERE.
And it turns out that DJ Osymyso has accidentally beaten the world record for number of samples used in one track. (Easily the most proficient on the album front is Girl Talk, but even DJ Earworm struggles to get more than 25 songs into one track.) We're now sitting around awaiting a call from the chaps from Guinness World Records.
The Quietus are offering an iPod touch to one reader who can untangle the mash-up and correctly identify where all the samples come from, so see how many you can guess here.
