#1508 Guchon - Megamix: The Hugest Party on the Internet

A dance record / mashup record that lands somewhere between DJ mix / Girl Talk album, a populist version of Since I Left You. You're getting dance music, not party music: there's no Weezer singalongs, no Since You've Been Gone suckerpunches. But it with 400 songs in 120 minutes, this isn't just a song-then-the-next-song flow-showoff, and it's not afraid to truck in a lot of the same "you know you love THIS riff" samples that Greg Gillis leans on.

With all that laid down it seems like I should like this, but it didn't really work for me: it all slurred together and got tiresome by the end, lacking that contrast that made the best Avalanches and Girl Talk and E60 stuff work. Might be a great soundtrack for juuuust the right kind of party 2.5/5
