Move over, Grey Album -- From Boing Boing Blog: Former BoingBoing guestblogger Todd Lappin says, "Hot on the heels of the Grey Album comes another innnnteresting mash-up/bootleg project that was originally posted as a collaborative challenge to DJs in February. The goal: Take one track from the Clash's "London Calling," and "remix it, add to it, subtract from it - put your own tributary spin on it." The result is "London Booted" - 19 tracks (plus a few bonus extras) of eclectically reinterpreted Clash. In return for the download, the project organizers are asking listeners to donate to one of several charities, including Future Forests, a reforestation initiative that was a favorite of Joe Strummer. For £17.50 you can even have your own tree in Joe Strummer's Rebel Woods, a future forests project on the Isle of Lucy... er... Skye." 10:06:21 PM     trackback []
