Oh my. This is... something.
Bob Cronin, aka dj BC, is best known as the creator of such memorable mash-ups as The Beastles (Beatles vs. Beastie Boys) and Wu Orleans (Wu-Tang Clan vs. New Orleans Jazz). Boston Phoenix magazine declared him Boston's Best Lawbreaker, and his progressive attitude towards copyrights might also be responsible for the fact that his mixes usually disappear from his website after a relatively short time. One of my all-time dj BC favorites is his album Glassbreaks, mashing up Philip Glass with hip-hop. Here it is, for free download, and hopefully for a longer time.

eta: This rules:
04 Lil' Tut [PG - "Funeral" from Akhnaten vs. Lil' Jon & the Eastside Boyz - I Don't Give A Fuck]
"Funeral of Amenhotep" is one of my favorite Glass tunes....
I don't know from Sufjan Stevens, but I'm totally in love with
Did I Make You Cry On Christmas Day? (Well You Deserved It!).
DW has been downloading new-to-us xmas music like crazy and so far that's my fave new one. What other Sufjan should I be listening to???

and
Illinois.

I'd start with Illinois. I think that's his best. "Casimir Pulaski Day"!
I love
Illinois.
And the outtake album:
The Avalanche
which is perfect for those of us who cannot get enough of
Illinois.
Posting good music (& books) is what I do...
I think Michigan is easily Sufjan Stevens' most realized album (and my favorite).
