A good mash-up is timeless. Good being the operative word, here. In 2012, DJ/Producer Mad Mix Mustang dropped a track called “Are You That Somebody That I Used To Know,” which melded the late Aaliyah’s hit single “Are You That Somebody” with Gotye’s colossal “Somebody That I Used To Know.” Leaning on the word “somebody,” which lyrically connects the two songs, Mad Mix Mustang crafted a perfect mash-up. The Internet has a way of rediscovering things, which is what happened here. The track resurfaced earlier this week, and HipHopDX opted to give it a spin. Now before the Rap purist choir starts singing “This ain’t Hip Hop!” think about what you’re saying. Production is the phantom element of Hip Hop, with Deejaying being an actual element. What Mad Mix Mustang did here fits comfortable within the crux of what Hip Hop is all about. He took two songs that really only had one word in common and created a brand new cut. The song opens with the existing soundscape Timbaland crafted for Aaliyah’s Dr. Doolittle soundtrack, only to have Gotye’s introductory verse slide right in. Aaliyah’s hook follows, as the sitar in Gotye’s track accompanies Baby Girl’s blippity baby-voiced beat. It’s this volleying between the two songs that makes the mash-up sound so good. There are equal contributions, and the result is a well-balanced track, ideal for somebody…or anybody. - Kathy Iandoli (@kath3000)
