The Kleptones - A Night At The Hip-Hopera - I'm totally digging some of the cool mash ups being shared on the web these days. Imagine for a moment if you took Queen and mashed their work with hip hop. The results are stunning. I've downloaded all 23 tracks and have been listening to them for the past hour and I love 'em. The hip hop samples are great touching upon everything from Public Enemy to Eminem and the underlying Queen blends in perfectly. Throw in some awesome sound bites from movies like The Great Lebowski and Ferris Bueller's Day Off and you've got A Night at the Hip-Hopera. You have to hear this to believe it.
Hey! If you download these tracks and have a listen, I'd love to hear what you think. I really like it, but I can't tell if it's just me of if others dig this kind of thing as well. Write me privately or compose a Guest Blog.
