Oneboredjeu is a talented mashup artist starting in 2012. This name happened by happenstance because the username, “One Bored Jew” was taken.

“My user/channel name is pronounced “one bored jew”. I would’ve been oneboredjew but Tumblr wouldn’t let me pick that as my username back in 2012. That’s when I changed the “w” to a “u” to bypass that. If I had known my mashups would take off, I would not have called myself this lol,” she explained in her FAQ.

Using Audacity, she brings together different songs, sounds, beats, and music to create her own mashups. Mashups where an artist takes multiple sources of audio and combining them into one gorgeous song. Here’s an example of their work Oneboredjeu’s mashup of “The Lone Slim Shady” By Oneboredjeu Mashup.

That’s not her only amazing mashup. She’s been creating since 2012 with songs coming out regularly. Unfortunately, at this time, the only place to listen to her mashups are on Youtube. As she use mostly official instrumentals but not have any rights to redistribute, she’s not only on Youtube.

Below are several of her most popular mashups for your listening pleasure.

“Barbie Girl” by Aqua and “Rain On Me” by Lady Gaga & Ariana Grande combine into something sweet but sour.

“Shape of You” by Ed Sheeran with the lyrics of “Down With The Sickness” by Disturbed is a superbly chill mashup.

Making a high energy mashup is “Black and Yellow” by Wiz Khalifa and “Feel Good Inc.” by Gorillaz.

Gravity Falls Main Title Theme” by Brad Breeck with the vocals of “Mr. Brightside” by The Killers bring nostalgia to a whole new level.

Switching Styles is based in central Alberta, on the enduring homelands of many Indigenous Peoples, including the Beaver, Big Stone Cree, Cree, Dënéndeh, Ĩyãħé Nakón mąkóce (Stoney), Kelly Lake Métis Settlement Society, Ktunaxa ɁamakɁis, Lheidli T’enneh, Michif Piyii (Métis), Mountain Métis, Niitsítpiis-stahkoii (Blackfoot / Niitsítapi), Očhéthi Šakówiŋ, Tsuut’ina, ᓀᐦᐃᔭᐤ ᐊᐢᑭᕀ Nêhiyaw-Askiy (Plains Cree), Woodland Cree, and many others. As a Canadian music platform, we recognize that the arts exist within broader systems shaped by colonial history. Colonial policies and practices deliberately sought to suppress Indigenous cultures, traditions, and songs. We acknowledge this history and its ongoing impacts of colonialism. We are grateful for the opportunity to share music and culture on these lands, and we commit to ongoing learning, accountability, respect, and meaningful action.
 

We commit to supporting Indigenous voices and ensuring that Indigenous music, stories, and cultures are protected, amplified, and never erased.
