laura in the fiesta [download]
R. Kelly featuring Jay-Z - Fiesta (remix)
VS
Scissor Sisters - Laura

released: March 2007

I don’t really follow and dont really like mainstream pop music, and escpecially not R&B. But I respect R.Kelly as a producer, and this Fiesta song was cool. I loved the original, with the hot video and everything. It was in my mind to do something with it and I tried to play around with the acapella of the Fiesta but never made anything with it.Few nights ago I started to work on ideas and was trying to finish unfinished mashups but I had no inspiration. I was trying to make something with the Laura pella with a different instrumental and worked on an another idea at the same time the Fiesta instrumental with a different pella. But both idea was wrong. At the end I just tryied this combination, and I felt in love with the vibe. I think it sounds like an original, even with there are small mistakes in it, but these give a special feeling for the song, when you play live with a band… a bit out of synch in few parts and a bit out of key in other parts for few moments, but it can happen when a gang of drag queens and mexican wrestler women are making music in Jamaica just for fun and entertaining themselves ….

This mashup was exclusive to MashUpTown

PS when i finished the track I was looking for pictutres to make the cover. Dunno how but I found that wrestler woman and I felt loved with it. If you like it visit the site of the Wexford Girl who created that picture, and many other nice ones too. Like my mashup? Buy a painting from Annie! They are nice!!
