Mixing MefiMusic Tracks...

Just had the ultimate experience playing CarrotAdventure's remix of Joni Mitchells' Both Sides Now with wasteland's hyperluminous quasar (starting quasar at 2:30 into mitchell). Anybody else had success playing 2 or more MefiMusic tracks at the same time to great effect?

Yeah, there was word for it and a challenge in the past featuring this.

This actually came up in Music Talk - check out this thread. It's an undeniably cool side effect of having multiple embedded music players on one page.

I'm sorry, I accidentally read that as "hyperluminous quonsar" and things got weird for a moment.

Every once in a while, I go down the front page of music.metafilter and play all the tracks at once. It's wonderful.

By searching for "Reich" I found out that these two worked really well together:

John Cage's 4'33" mashes up really well with pretty much every song, MefiMusic or not. There are plenty of performances on YouTube, but I find it best to perform it myself every single time I listen to a song.
