Hallowe'en mashups from Mashing Pumpkins

Mashing Pumpkins is a pretty swell new free album of illegal Hallowe'en mashups. I've just downloaded a smattering of them for review purposes and found myself rockin' out to DJ Engineer's "Purple Monster Bop" (Shaun of the Dead - Man Parrish (Hip Hop, Be Bop - Don't Stop) vs Dr. Demento (Purple People Eater) vs Monster Twist).

These mashup sites tend to disappear about ten seconds after they hit the net and get some serious download traffic, so I've created Coral Cache links to all the individual MP3s below -- just one of the many services we provide here at Boing Boing Global Enterprises (A wholly owned subsidiary of Harriman Enterprises Holdings (Holdings) Ltd).

Link, (Thanks, Ray!)

Giving credit where it's due, "Purple People Eater" is by Sheb Wooley, not Dr. Demento.

Forget the mashups, I want shares of Harriman. Preferably backed by acres of lunar real estate.

OK, I'm new to this whole Coral Cache thing. How does it work? The links in the above post seem to go to the now-defunct website, and while clicking on them sometimes gets me a file, saving them to disk isn't working.

Hey, this is Pimpdaddysupreme from the Mashing Pumpkins comp. As you know, anytime BoingBoing covers something like this it's gonna get great traffic. (That sometimes we're not ready for)

We thank you for the mention and we're working as hard as we can to get this comp back up and running for you, the people!! (hahaha)

I'll see what we can do about setting up a torrent and several mirror sites.

Plus, since the traffic is there, we'll even throw in a BoingBoing Bonus EP at no additional charge. (As if we were charging for this.)

Keep your browser on Crimson Alert!! We'll let you know when we're back up. (and backed up)

Thank you, PimpDaddySupreme. Cory's on London time, so we'll have to wait a bit for him to come back.

Feel free to repost with the links to these as they should not fail this time.

Happy Halloween everyone!! Have fun trickin'!

P.S. The Bonus EP "Mashed Pumpkin Seedz" will be a torrent only release. Halloween isn't here yet, but this EP will be here waaay before then.

Seems we have yet another mirror

http://www.djmif.com/mp.htm

It allows you to download each track individually and also offers the whole thing up as a a.rar file.
