Wu Tang vs. The Beatles

If you’re a fan of mash-ups then I have a treat for you. Beatmaster, Tom Caruana, has taken some Wu Tang acapellas and remixed them with Beatles songs or covers of Beatles songs. The album is pure genius.  The best mash-ups I’ve heard since Danger Mouse’s Grey Album, which mashes up Jay-Z’s Black Album, with The Beatles’ White Album.  Tom has put the entire album up for free download on Tea Sun Records.   He also just recently put up all of the instrumental tracks and radio edits.  Several of these remixes are just so completely perfect that it makes me think that this might be the original purpose of these tracks.  With all of the mash-up talent out there these days I am gonna hope that someone is listening and I’m putting in my request. I would like to see The Beach Boys remixed with either Beirut or Final Fantasy.  What mash-up project would you like to see happen?
