You Belong With Me (Makaio's Kanye Club Mix) - Taylor Swift




This is the remix that is going viral and was featured in a Paste Magazine's web article. I took elements of a Kanye West remix of "Stronger" and an acapella version of Taylor Swift's "You Belong With Me" and created a remix fusing samples from both tracks as well as original composition and production work. It took me about 8 hours over two days to finish and has a video on youtube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rb5y9LgqrKo).


The following link is for promotional use only and anyone who visits the link should support the original artists by buying their albums and tracks. Both are great artists and deserve our support. Thanks for checking it out and enjoy! Hope you hear this soon at a club near you!!!

WELCOME TO MY MUSIC PAGE!

Aloha everybody and welcome to my music page. I was sick of my mixes and mashups getting taken off myspace and other hosting sites, so I decided to give blogger a try. I am not really a "blogger" at heart, so I won't wax too poetic on any of these posts... What I mainly want to do is share my mashups with everyone.

A mashup is, by nature, questionable in legality. It is a combination of two or more songs which I do not hold copyright to. I then mix those tracks to create a unique mix of the songs, clashing musically and legally. I do not claim responsibility for individual copyrights, but am trying to create an art form using other people's works. I still buy works from the original artists, and suggest that everyone who enjoys aspects of the mashups buy their original works. But, I see this as an artistic project, and if anyone objects to the posted material, I will take it down. But for now, let's mash it up!
