So what's a mashup?
What's a bootleg?
It's pretty much all the same. Also known as "bastard pop," a bootleg is a song that's "mashed-up." Usually, this means the vocal track of one song is mixed over the instrumentation of another. Using audio editing software, DJs and mashup artists combine different artists and musical genres to create new and unique songs that are often greater than the sum of their parts. Imagine Michael Jackson rocking out with Nirvana, Britney Spears singing with Daft Punk, Cher fronting AC/DC, or Ludacris rapping with Depeche Mode. Can't imagine that? Then get your ass to Bootie to hear for yourself!

Is this legal?
Does the skull-and-crossbones in our logo mean anything to you?

So where can I get these mashups?
Since 99.999% of all mashups aren't legally cleared by the artists, you can't just go to a store and buy them. However, illegal MP3s of these bootleg mixes are available all over the internet. Click on some of the links at left to find some for yourself!

Or, just come to Bootie and get one of
our mashup mix CDs, which we give
away for free every month!
