There has been past discussion of RaveDJ, but it has improved significantly since then.
In college, I would frequent the Mashups room on turntable.fm and use it as background music for studying, so I was pretty excited to see this.
I spent more time than I'd care to admit when I found it creating new mashups and also comparing/contrasting them to some of my favorite human created mashups.
Here's an example of one I actually enjoyed. (Note: Ads will autoplay prior to playback) https://rave.dj/G7AS9HjKvBK6Nw https://rave.dj/G7AS9HjKvBK6Nw
If you'd like to compare and contrast with some mashups created by humans, I'd encourage you to check out The White Panda, Super Mash Bros, 5 & A Dime, 3LAU, and Kapslap. Fair warning, a lot of this material may only be available on YouTube or SoundCloud.
Finally, I know some of the people that created RaveDJ are on HN and if they happen to see this, a technical write-up of how RaveDJ works would be of great interest to me, and others I'm sure, if you have time.

- fragmede 5y agoJust open the doc in incognito mode.
- iamthemonster 5y agoI'm still traumatised, thrilled, damaged and very excited by this one: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QP0mVv0OsCA https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QP0mVv0OsCA which you described as "I once played this for my friend and she forced me to turn it off because her heart was racing like she was having a panic attack"

- singingfish 5y agoTechnically I think this is the greatest mashup of all time, although it is mashing up preacher and famous tune rather than two separate tunes https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pdXek5d2ocw https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pdXek5d2ocw
