Don't know if this has been posted already, but I thought I'd share:
Songs To Wear Pants ToThis guy is AMAZING. The concept: You request a song, he produces it. I've pretty much spent the past three hours reading the requests and listening to the tunes to see what he did with them.
This guy is unbelievably talented and hilarious. I'm totally buying the three volumes he's selling.
A few examples to get you guys started:

I know that you don't do songs longer that 1:11, but I was wondering if you could make an exception for me, please? I'd like you to cover the song Fat Lip, from the band called Sum 41. So please, I beg you, could you do it for free? Thank You!

0190 - Wop Wop Wop Mo Mo Mo Mo <=AWESOME
REQUEST:
[Paid Request]
I would like a birthday song for Chris Varelas of San Antonio, Texas. It would be an uptempo doo-wop song, in the style of #0131 (which was requested by Sarah Efron for me and my sister at Xmas). Chris is a serious vocal group harmony (doo-wop) collector. He used to be a professional DJ on an oldies station in San Antonio. Now he is a technical consultant for radio stations.
he will be around 41 or 42, which is young for a serious doo-wop collector--most of us are 55 to 65 years old. He is married to a lawyer, Sharee, who also loves doo-wop. Twice a year, they set up a table at the Austin Record Convention and sell 45's and CD's.
Chris is a true audio-file, and his so-called "cheap" stereo system in his record-filing room costs about 10 times what my best system cost. He is very good with computers and audio equipment, and works for a company that serves radio stations. He gets sent out to figure out their equipment problems. As I mentioned before, he was a professional DJ, starting in high school, at an Oldies station in San Antonio. When I first met him in 1998 or 1999, he was still an on-the-air professional at a hard rock station in San Antonio. He used to do guest spots with an old friend DJ at his old station, Wild Bill Riley, on "The Low and Slow Cruisin' Show", and he used his old "air name" of Chris Kelly.
