Yes, you read that artist field correctly. This is a mashup of my own making. I want to give a special shoutout to LibraH and LK CORVUS for providing me with tools and initial guidance, and Cosmic Latte for giving me some very useful feedback on my first two passes at this mix. Without them, this would not have been made.
The cue points have some additional info about the mashup, if you wish to read those, but they will contain spoilers if you haven’t listened to it already. I will also say: Pitch shifting is hard when you know nothing about the keys of a song, and only have Audacity to work with. So some parts *might* be off-key, but as a certified “the el horso project EP” enjoyer, I’m okay with that kind of chaotic energy in a mashup.
If this is well-received, I might consider doing my own EP or album at some point, released exclusively through Spinshare charts. I was admittedly very anxious about including this track in the project, and had decided to remove it until quite literally the night before release, when I decided to give it another pass and got it to a point I’m happy with. I suppose it’s still a “demo” version of sorts, as I would like to polish it more for an EP release, but I’d still call it something I’m proud of doing.
Lastly, thank you very much for playing through (or watching!) this project; it means the world to me, as someone who has now charted 70+ mashups this year across at least a hundred hours, likely closer to 200. I wanted to share the fantastic work that these mashup-makers do with others, in the best way I knew how. I hope these past few hours have helped brighten your day, week, month, or year just that little bit. Life is tough, so make the most of it when you can, and just have some fun.
