Brand New Mashups (01-22-2009) from Ty DeBole's Altered Tunes

This is the first mashup album from Ty DeBole's Altered Tunes. It features Michael Jackson's Black Or White (acapella version) on every track, be it just the noises he makes or a full-blown vocal mashup. The resulting tracks vary from okay to great, but all of them are funny! (With the exception of the unknown artist on tracks 02 and B. No MJ, just music on those two.) The resulting album title is: Ty DeBole's Altered Tunes - Michael Jackson Tunes The track list is as follows: 01 David Bowie vs The Ventures vs Michael Jackson - It's No Game vs Percolator vs Black Or White (acapella) This track includes just the noises MJ makes while singing Black Or White...FUNNY STUFF! Also, sounds are forward and backward! *LOL* Resulting song title: Ventures Jackson - Black Or Percolator 02 Unknown - This track was originally 32 music loops from within the Jackpot Matchup PC game, so it's probably more of a remix than a mashup. Instrumental only. Maybe a vocal will be made out of it later! :o) Resulting song title: Unknown - Jackpot Mashup Matchup 03 Ace Frehley vs Michael Jackson - New York Groove vs Black Or White (acapella) This track also includes just the MJ noises from Black Or White. The intro is great on this one! *LOL* Also listen for an MJ "ahhhh" that has been chopped and pitch adjusted to the "ooooh" of the actual Ace Frehley band! As MJ says at that point, "This is the best part!" Resulting song title: Ace Jackson - Black In The New York White 04 Gary Glitter vs Michael Jackson - Rock & Roll, Part 1 vs Black Or White (acapella) Oh, boy... Now we're getting into layering the sounds... Just the MJ noises again, only layered. Not only does MJ make the noises in this one, but he doubles as the percussion! *LOL* Resulting song title: Gary Jackson Glitter - Rock & White, Part 1 05 Gary Glitter vs Michael Jackson - Rock & Roll, Part 2 vs Black Or White (acapella) Okay now, THIS track was a PAIN! It may not be finished completely, but it's as finished as it's going to get for a while. This track must have about 50+ hours worth of work into it! It's also the first track where MJ actually SINGS Black Or White, makes the noises AND doubles as the percussion, as in Part 1, only different! *LOL* If you can get past some of the timing issues, this track is definitely worth a listen! Resulting song title: Gary Jackson Glitter - Rock & White, Part 2 06 Midnight Oil vs Michael Jackson - Beds Are Burning vs Black Or White (acapella) Okay, NOW we're talking the GOOD stuff here! MJ noises again, a little bit of vocal resulting in a really DECENT mashup! This is the next-to-the-best mashup in the Altered Tunes yet! Resulting song title: Midnight Jackson - Beds Are Black Or White 07 Midnight Oil vs Michael Jackson - Beds Are Burning (Tamarama Mix) vs Black Or White (acapella) Here it is...THE best mashup Ty DeBole's Altered Tunes has made yet! This track is almost twice as long as the original with LOTS of instrumental passages, making more room for...you guessed it...more MJ vocal! :o) MJ actually sings the trailing 5+ verses of Black Or White in this one...TWICE! The reason for 5+ instead of 6 was because the music changed during the 6th verse, so it chops off and goes from there! *LOL* "This IS the best part," as MJ says in the openeing moments of the track! It also contains the usual noises from MJ. Funny AND a great track! :o) Resulting song title: Midnight Jackson - Beds Are Black Or White (Tamarama Mix) 08 Tone Loc vs Spike Jones vs Michael Jackson - Funky Cold Medina vs Mr. Banjo vs Black Or White (acapella) Now it's getting a little weird...reaching back into the days of early comedy bands, putting a rap beat to it and mixing it up with MJ noises! *LOL* The only thing different about this Spike Jones track is, it's an instrumental! It's the very first instrumental, and maybe the only one known from Spike Jones that IS! Also notice that there are THREE bands involved in this mashup. It's the entire Mr. Banjo repeated in a couple of places to make a longer track out of it, the drum beat from Funky Cold Medina, and the usual MJ noises (very little singing this time). Also, before the silence that was created by Ty DeBole in the middle of the track (under the drum beat), is a pitch-adjusted banjo lead-out, which sounds like it was actually originally recorded that way! It's also the first track to fade at the end, instead of just chopping off with a "Cut! That was perfect" at the end. This whole track was "the best part!" *LOL* It's also the last finished track of the MJ Tunes... Resulting song title: Spike Michael Tone Jones - Funky Mr Cold Black Or White Banjo (No Tone Mix) Now we get into the "bootleg" tracks. These tracks were considered to be finished at the time, but were improved upon later, so they became "demo versions". These tracks are only included to show the steps taken on some of the tracks to their final end. The "finished" tracks are numbered, as you have seen above. The following "demo" tracks are lettered, and listed as follows below: A - The Ventures vs Michael Jackson - Percolator vs Black Or White (acapella) First off, notice there is no David Bowie intro in this one. Secondly, this track just sucks compared to the "finished" one. Well, what do you want from the very first try at making a mashup? *LOL* The only noises MJ makes in this one is "ow". *YAWN* Resulting song title: Ventures Jackson - Black Or Percolator (Demo) B - Unknown - Same song, same game, only the percussion has gone missing! Ty DeBole lost track of the percussion loops, so ended up with this so-so version. It even sounds like a different song. Oh, well, at least it sounds good in the number section... *LOL* Resulting song title: Unknown - Jackpot Mashup Matchup (Demo) C - Gary Glitter vs Michael Jackson - Rock & Roll, Part 2 vs Black Or White (acapella) This is the saddest track in the set. Nothing came together in it here. Until it was improved, Ty DeBole was going to scrap it completely. You will be able to see why when you listen... *YUCK* Resulting song title: Gary Jackson Glitter - Rock And White, Part 2 (Demo 1) D - Midnihgt Oil vs Michael Jackson - Beds Are Burning (Tamarama Mix) vs Black Or White (acapella) Same great song as track 07 above, only the vocal isn't as complex... For one of the demos, it's one of the two best! :o) Resulting song title: Midnight Jackson - Beds Are Black Or White (Tamarama Mix, Take 1) E - Gary Glitter vs Michael Jackson - Rock & Roll, Part 2 vs Black Or White (acapella) Well, this one is a bit better than the first demo... In fact it's almost as good as the "finished" one! A number of timing flaws have been addressed here! :o) It's still not quite there yet... Oh, well, maybe another album... Resulting song title: Gary Jackson Glitter - Rock & White, Part 2 (Demo 2) F - Tone Loc vs Spike Jones vs Michael Jackson - Funky Cold Medina vs Mr Banjo vs Black Or White (acapella) This was an experiment with two vocals in one song. It sounds a bit cluttered with both vocal parts in it, so it was changed to the track 08 above. This track is also a spinoff of the third track of Ty DeBole's second album, which is in progress as of this time (01-13-2009)! :o) Resulting song title: Spike Michael Tone Jones - Funky Mr Cold Black Or White Banjo (Experimental Tone Mix) That's it for this album from Ty DeBole's Altered Tunes. It was all started on August 13, 2008, with the demo version of Black Or Percolator. We sincerely hope that you will have as much fun listening to this album as Ty DeBole had making it! Let's see how well this album does... The second one can only be better! :o) Thanks for listening!
