In which I employ Ableton Live to sync up Jeff Mills "The Bells" and Four of A Kind's "Rail Gaddi." The Bells is pitched down a whole tone, and I did some edits later to match Mills to the bhangra track's structure. I'd been driving around with just one CD in the van for a few weeks, "The Rough Guide To Bhangra Dance." and Rail Gaddi seemed really techno all by itself. The melody basically danced around one minor chord, so it seemed like a no brainer to mash it up with The Bells.. When I got Rail Gaddi all beat mapped, and started in sync with the Mills, I just laughed like an idiot the whole first time through the track, because it fit together so sweet. Both tracks break down in the same places for the first 3 minutes and the Mills 'bells riff' really meshed in unexpected ways. Anyone else silly enough to do stuff like this! I want to do the all techno-mashup mixtape!
