Surprisingly given the attention to song structures and music production, not many straddle both the bootleg/mashup and original composition worlds, Dunproofin is one who creates his own excellent rock tunes, so does Neil Cicierega with Lemon Demon but I always feel parody and comedy songs are already related to mashups.
Solcofn is another. He’s released a very introspective instrumental mini-EP of ambient and trip-hoppy tunes, very nicely produced and I’m getting a very contemplative lockdown/mortality vibe here, especially from my favourite ‘Exquisite Red’ which moody piano track fits in perfectly with my Nils Frahm/Daniel Avery/Jon Hopkins obsession. You can download it over at his Bandcamp.
