Madeon's Totally Awesome "Pop Culture" Mashup

If you’ve never heard of 17-year-old French pop/house producing sensation Madeon, well shame, shame on you. Thankfully, all is not lost, as we’re positive you’ll be a fan after this absolutely amazing live mashup of a whopping 39 songs into one bangin’ track.

If you’re wondering what’s going on, he’s playing bits of each of those songs like individual instruments on a Novation Launchpad with some assistance from a Novation Zero SL MKII. The Launchpad is a 64 button music controller, part of a new wave of digital instruments that attempt to recover some of the aesthetic style and tactile intuitiveness of classical instruments but with a decidedly modern twist, as opposed to relying on the drab metal boxes covered in switches and knobs that have traditionally served as the tools of the trade for electronic musicians.
