i'm finding the whole new songs that are old songs i've heard loada times before abit dull now, can't artists(not talking bedroom ones) record new orignal parts, vocals, guitar, whatever... i know i probably going to be told to shutup, but i just think it might be good way to insert a breath of fresh air into the genre

Funny you should mention this because I have been rediscovering a lot of the less mashup orientated, albeit older releases from the scene lately. Digging out some older shiz in my cd wallet, some of it is great fun! I do love some of the daft "mashcore" stuff though.

i think that stepping away from it entirely is an immature approach, like breakcore, you cant just discard it for its surface flaws

i think instead of stepping away from the mashcore stuff, we should step further. Throwing in a 5-10 second piece of a song to mash is fun but its overdone in the bcore scene and is being resorted to more and more in the pop music scene. If we wish to stay at the fine line between bad music and terrible music, we need to make our sampling more intense; cut it more, use 100 cut-up two-beats worth samples and arrange those, rather than sampling for shock value or finding funny samples, make the samples being used more intuitive, mix things that would never go together, make the statements, the ideals behing the samples clash, in essence, step further into the mash up or step out

Well I've had the myspace deleted for a long time.
When my next release comes out I'll probably get a new one.
I can supply you with the first release if you want it?

EDIT

I don't care if you want it.

I like divtech's idea.
I think every breakcore artist goes through some kind of "lolololmashcore" phase; it just takes some longer than others to grow out of it.

well, either people can make the samples mean somthing, or destroy them more. at first it was really interesting when someone would rip up a pop song, but after hearing too many bcore pop remixes I felt like it might as well be the electro/dubstep/trance/whatever remix. mashup is at its best imo when the destruction of the song is a critique of it, not a way to make it listenable for people who like hard breaks.
