For my second Mashup assignment this week I chose to do the 10 Second Throwback, for 3.5 stars! Basically, I had to choose two or more throwback songs to mash together to make a short 10 second clip! I decided to relate this one to my host character, and used songs with “dance” in the title because The Headless Ballerina loves to dance! Here’s my mashup of “Dancing Queen” by ABBA and “Dance Dance Dance” by Wilson Phillips!


The making of this assignment was really quite simple! I went to my iTunes library, and I chose two of my favorite throwback songs about dancing. Then, I imported them both into Garageband, cut each song where I wanted to, then mashed them together. I think the intro to “Dancing Queen” is a classic, so I wanted to keep most of it. Then to fill up the rest of the 10 seconds, I put the chorus of “Dance Dance Dance” in there to really make the dance vibe come full circle. Then I uploaded it to my iTunes, and directly to my blog! I skipped the SoundCloud step because I wanted to sidestep any copyright issues! Well that’s all, hope you guys like my little mashup!

For my 3rd and final Assignment Bank project for the week I have created a 10 second mashup of throwback songs! :)
This assignment is worth 2 stars which puts me over the 8 star requirement with 9.5 stars woot!

I already had these songs in my iTunes so I just cut them up into small pieces and put them together with the AVS Audio Editor which I love^^.

The songs used were SOS by Rihanna, Hips Don’t Lie by Shakira, and Lollipop by Aqua.

This assignment was a lot of fun. So when trying to come up with a throwback, I was confused on which throwback to use. I love old songs. I went with the 80’s… I went with mashing up two of my favorite movies breakout songs. I used Unchained Melody first, then it transfers into Time […]

I created this assignment called “10 Second Throwback.” For this assignment you have to create at least a 10 second long mashup of songs that are considered “throwbacks.” The music can be from any genre as long as it is nothing recent.

I choose to use two songs each 5 second clips. My first song is a classic from one of the most famous country artist of all time Johnny Cash. The song “Walk the Line” was recorded in 1956 and became Johnny Cash’s first number 1 billboard hit. The single remained on the record charts for 43 weeks, and sold over 2 million copies.

The second song that I choose to use to finish out my 10 second mashup was Conway Twitty’s 1981 ‘Tight Fittin’ Jeans’. The song peaked at number 1 in September. With 98 billboard singles and hundreds of album cuts picking just one of his classics was difficult.
