I've been experimenting with creating my own pseudo-quad mashups, using the multi track environment of Adobe Audition and time compression and expansion to match beats.
I started with something simple. I synced up the two versions of "Radio Silence" by Thomas Dolby, and then placed the rock version in the front speakers and the original version in the rears. It sounds . . . OK.
I then got ambitious and synced the entire original recording of Frank Zappa's "We're Only In It for The Money" with the dreadful 1980s remix/re-recording, using time compression and expansion to make the remix match the original. Original in fronts, remix in rears. It sounds . . . interesting.
This week, I synced up Mike Oldfield's original "Tubular Bells" with "The Orchestral Tubular Bells." I've only done side 1 so far. Original in the fronts, orchestral in the rears. It sounds . . . pretty damn good!
Anyone else tried this with other material?
