Man, "Mysterious Ticking Noise" is almost ten years old.

The beginning of Wow Wow feels like the pinnacle of mashups

"wow wow" is an incredible jam

yeah I'm definitely slotting that, "Bustin", and "Shit" into my party playlist

just about killed myself laughing at ac/vc

Wallspin really does my head in. It's practically an aural illusion. Amazing that he managed to ruin this song twice.
― frogbs, Friday, 27 January 2017 17:28 (seven years ago) link
Seriously. And both times amazingly

lol I just realized he changed "Jim West" to "Jim Dress" on "Wow Wow"

Would say btw - average quality maybe higher than Mouth Silence, jury out on whether he's bested Crocodile Chop or Born To Cat

i think ac/vc is my favourite ever neil cicieraga mashup, competing with crocodile chop and mullet with butterfly wings
― Islamic State of Mind (jim in vancouver), Friday, 27 January 2017 22:46 (seven years ago) link
JC/VC is all the more impressive for not seeming to need a ton of processing to make it work

er AC/VC

Someone tweeted him showing that that mash-up had already been done (probably not as well but)

He talks about his childhood here. Says that he basically spent all of homeschool making games and animations.

when I found out that this was the same guy who'd done brodyquest who was also the mash up guy it blew my mind

T.I.M.E. actually has some interesting comments on Youtube. The top thread is about the function of the All Star sample at the end. A commenter thinks it undercuts the emotion of the song, whereas Neil chimes in and says that it was meant to "return to the memeverse gently".

lol canyon.mid @ the end

whoa, I totally forgot about the bonus tracks on Spirit Phone, some of these are incredible
― frogbs, Thursday, 2 February 2017 14:39 (seven years ago) link
This guy gives me the fucking creeps and everything of his that I've seen and heard is pervasively smug and/or deeply unfunny. I think the only reason I partially liked Spirit Phone for like a week was because it was a particularly dry spell for vaguely-Cardiacsy-pop-prog-whatever.

And yeah, sorry to be 'that guy' but I had to get that off my chest.
I feel much better now, please continue!

Why does he give you the creeps?

xp I don't even know, honestly, there's just something about this guy that makes me want to bolt; almost definitely has more to do with me than him but I stand by everything else.

I think this Cicierega-inspired mashup is actually an improvement on "ACVC"

some outtakes from the mashup albums. a lot of it is unfinished and/or doesn't really work, but there's still some entertaining stuff here. "Sit on You" particularly
― frogbs, Wednesday, 18 September 2019 12:52 (four years ago) link
'Don't' is the jewel in that crown imo
― imago, Wednesday, 18 September 2019 13:08 (four years ago) link
(and 'Avril', yes obv)
― imago, Wednesday, 18 September 2019 13:13 (four years ago) link
couldn't tell if "Don't" was brilliant or one of the worst things ever made honestly
XTC reference in "Avril" made me laugh a lot
"Who" is pretty fun too
