Suprises



Surprises are awesome, aren't they?


After a hectic week, I hit up the internets this morning to listen to some tunes and immediately find an awesome (I mean awesome) producer/mashup artist just dropped in my lap. I've posted two songs here on this post from The Two Friends, but I encourage you all to click on the link on the bottom to their Soundcloud and listen to more of their bumpin' tracks.


This is their most recent song, and it has gotten the most hype for them, blowing up big on the blogosphere. It shows their skill, and most of all their creativity in using two completely different songs, putting them together, and tying it off with their smooth transitions. "When I'm Gone" by Wiz Khalifa and "What You Know" by Two Door Cinema Club
When You Know - The Two Friends





Fast forward thirty years from now, and imagine your kid asking you, "Daddy/Mommy...what music did you listen to when you were a kid?". You'll smile, pat them on the head, and say, "I've been waiting thirty years for you to ask me that." For you will have the perfect song, produced by Mashup-Germany. Displays some serious mashing skill here. It'll leave you saying, "What the Fuck" and shaking your head in stunned shock.
Top of the Pops 2011 (What the Fuck) - Mashup-Germany





What's great about The Two Friends are their ability to produce original work, not just mash. They teamed up with Gabriel Stark who displays his own flow and swag on this track. This is one of their older song, but truly good music is never too old. "Daylight" by Matt and Kim in the background
Do It All Again - Gabriel Stark (prod. by The Two Friends)





Next song is definitely a different wavelength. I encourage you to find a window to stare out of or crackling fire to stare into before you play this track. Ambient sound coming from this is overwhelming and while a bit lo-fi (low bit rate), the sounds seem to hit on a deeper level. See if you can dig it.

Hope you enjoyed this post. Make sure you like us on facebook. Below you'll find a link to The Two Friends's SoundCloud, and I encourage you to listen to their songs if you are itching for more from them like I was. Just as you think the music scene is settling and you've listened to it all, someone will pop up and smack you in the mouth.
