[STORY TIME] 20 years ago, back in May 2002, Bootie Mashup founder Adriana A heard her very first mashup. It all started with a bootleg import CD called “the best bootlegs in the world ever..”

This seemingly inauspicious occasion ended up kicking off a love affair with the then-burgeoning DIY genre-clashed music production technique, as well as launching a thriving DJ and nightlife career that continues to this day.

Curiously, Adriana READ about this CD weeks before she would even HEAR it. In the May 3, 2002 issue of Entertainment Weekly magazine, music writer Doug Brod wrote a short review, calling it “the party disc of the year,” and “guaranteed to have guests dancing slack-jawed.”

The promise of hearing Christina Aguilera singing with The Strokes or Destiny's Child mashed up with Nirvana was just too enticing. Based solely on this glowing review, she immediately sought it out. At the time, it was only available via import through Rough Trade in the UK.

So she immediately ordered it online and anxiously awaited its arrival from overseas. When it finally showed up in her mailbox, she distinctly remembers skipping right to one of those two particular mashups.

But to this day, she still can’t remember which one was the first mashup she ever heard. It was either Roy Kerr Freelance Hellraiser “A Stroke of Genius” or “Smells Like Booty” by 2manydjs (incorrectly credited on the back of the CD).

An entry from Adriana’s journal that week describes DJing these bootleg “mash-ups” for the first time at a bar gig in San Francisco, and she calls them “my latest obsession.”

Fifteen months later, she founded Bootie Mashup, the first party in the U.S. dedicated to the mashup artform, and 20 years later, that obsession (and the parties) are still going strong, as we continually discover new mashups, crafted by a new generation of inventive producers.

Using increasingly-improved software, creators illegally produce clever combinations that still often puts smiles on our faces. That “obsession” with mashup culture has never abated. And at this point, it probably never will. Here’s to another 20 years of mashup culture!
