Mashed Up: Music, Technology, and the Rise of Configurable Culture

Web Watch has covered music mashups before, but here’s a slightly different take for your amusement: what happens when you SING THE LYRICS OF ONE SONG TO THE MELODY OF ANOTHER? That what ROB BRYDON and others do here on I’M SORRY I HAVEN’T A CLUE.

It’s almost the same as HOW TO WRITE THE PERFECT POP SONG, where you can use the same four chords to cover any number of different songs. Perhaps all you really need to do is take a listen:

After Web Watch posted about the TOP TEN HALLOWEEN COSTUMES FOR 2010, we received numerous requests about one of the entries: LADY GAGA.

So here is Web Watch’s GUIDE TO HOW TO DRESS LIKE LADY GAGA for Halloween.

First, let’s get some tips directly from Lady Gaga herself:

Reservoir Dogs Soundtrack

So the other day, Web Watch told you about the NEW CEE-LO GREEN SONG “F*** YOU” and how awesome it was.

The song F*** You, from Cee-Lo Green‘s upcoming album The Ladykiller. How can you not want to blast this at full volume as you drive down the road, singing along with the windows rolled down?

That’s what Web Watch has been doing – join in the fun!

Besides, Web Watch likes any artist who will rhyme “Ferrari” with “Atari”.

Hearing the Movies: Music and Sound in Film History

Most hardcore movie fans are also fans of film music and soundtracks.

We’ve all seen those cheesy Oscar presentations where they show us how important it is to have music supporting key film scenes, as they demonstrate how a film clip plays out both with and without its accompanying audio track.

INAPPROPRIATE SOUNDTRACKS puts the creative side back in the hands of us – the movie-loving public – and allows us to recut our favorite movie scenes with new audio for a completely different experience.

More Gigs Now: Concert Booking Secrets of Successful Musicians

Web Watch last covered how much money it would take to book an artist for a private party many years ago.

Here is a sampling of approximate costs that you can expect to pay at a minimum if you decide to throw an exclusive private party and want a big-name artist or speaker to come and perform for you and your drunk friends at your house:
