This video came out on my wedding day, a few hours before we said our vows. I was born in '89 and RHCP was my first concert. I met my wife when we were in high school in 2006. I've always been a 90's kid, but this particular mashup has a lot more significance to me. It has three of the best bands and one of the greatest wrestlers of all time, and was made by an incredibly talented young DJ. I'll never forget it.

[@DJCummerbund]

Thank you!

[@jamesveronese6519]

I know that the whole “you make the songs you mash up sound like they always were one song” is something someone says for every mashup (it is always true, though) but I have genuinely have never felt that that is more true than in this one. Excellent work.

[@lgolem09l]

I always had this for Semi charmed sign. That has replaced the original songs completely for me

[@badeugenecops4741]

Dude, you need to check out "Don't Stop Til You Mash Enough."

[@kenzschueler]

I would caution one before they endure one DJ Cummerbund song. Once you start, the slope never ends, and you will forever question your existence before finding this gift. And you will sit in a corner waiting for another bread crumb

[@SolidIncMedia]

I wasn't sure which R.E.M song you'd weave your magic in to, and was absolutely floored when it was It's The End of the World As We Know It. Amazing.

[@geoffreyherrick298]

Goes together like kismet!

[@ewanhogg3068]

Well, that's two more songs I can never listen to on their own without feeling disappointed - thanks a bunch, DJ C.

[@DJCummerbund]

Sorry 😞

[@ewanhogg3068]

@@DJCummerbund Nah, don't be; this slaps. EDIT: And neither the Chili Peppers or Cake ever sampled Macho Man *or* Gordon the Gopher, let alone both - so they can get to the back of the queue, frankly.

[@Mcdannydew]

This man can't stop making bangers.

[@lgolem09l]

He could, but he chooses not to.

[@robertdestefanis992]

Another hidden value of your mashups is that it gets me listening to either bands I never heard of or (in this case) bands I sort of forgot about. CAKE is one kick-ass band and I'm glad you reminded me of that.

[@geofreak75]

As long as you always keep in mind that sheep go to heaven, goats go to hell.

How to make songs that always slap. Step one: Be DJ Cummerbund.

[@BasiliskX]

if i had a few million dollars i would invest it all into bringing together bands and playing these live.

[@Sarian2k]

I honestly can't remember the way these songs originally sound, this is that good. Damn.

[@woofspider330]

I'm glad these bangers only happen once a month or so. Makes them A) more quality, as DJC has more time to fulfill this Fever dream to it's TRUE potential, and B) they don't become saturated against each other. plenty of time to fill up on the latest before the next one. Thank you for your contributions to society.

[@realburglazofficial2613]

Gordon the Gopher straight outta left field and my childhood nostalgia!!

[@BulkernatorKerb]

I love how your mashups highlight the amazing instrumentation some of these songs have that you really just don't pick up as much when you hear them in their original format.

That bit with REM at the end caught me off guard what a cool little mix. Always great to hear new djc mixes.

[@MattSW77]

I listened to this song and I couldn't help but to have a thousand yard stare as I tried to find a feeling that somewhat resonated with this song. Maybe this is a song that fits playing while you sit in line at the food court.

[@penguindrummaster]

Absolutely brilliant as always. This is the first song I've had a pre-existing attachment to both of the main songs in the mash-up, and it's also the first time I find myself preferring the originals. This preference doesn't detract from the flawless work here, but it renews my love for both Don't Stop and The Distance. Keep making great music my man. You have quite the unique ear for making these work, and I'm constantly in awe

[@DJCummerbund]

Thanks so much!

[@mindslaw4961]

[@wh1skeys1erra]

Oh, I love how you mixed the guitar and drum parts at 0:15 when they kicked in together. Making RHCP sound Cake-ier. You always nail the details sir

[@wh1skeys1erra]

Oh dang, just got to the REM part. Placing it in Can't Stop makes it sound so much more sinister for some reason. Excellent

[@meanmotherstuka6630]

A CAKE remix???? You sir are unhinged.

[@governor_explosion]

My first introduction to Cake was a Flash animation of “Comfort Eagle” on Albino Blacksheep- first chance I got, I bought the album. I’ve somehow never seen what the actual band looked like, so it’s weird piecing together faces to a name. RHCP and REM are also two massive favorites of mine from when I was growing up, so this was a very nostalgic mashup.

[@Omnicrom]

So true fact, I don't know much music. Also true story: I heard a parody of Can't Stop, it ignited a sense memory, I tracked down the original, listened to it for about 20 seconds, thought to myself " why does the sound so much less interesting?", and then remembered it was because this was my first exposure to it.

[@ashuggtube]
