Musically Amazing

So here's the question...  If you had the musical talent and you were locked in your room for three months, what would you come up with?  Ask Kutiman.

Kutiman is an Israeli producer who took hundreds of Youtube videos, spliced and sampled them together for the ultimate funk, reggae, hiphop, jungle, techno, jazz, pop visual mash-up ever.   Using different instruments and vocals from amatuers across youtube, he has created seven tracks.  You can watch three of them below but please eventually visit the ThruYou site to hear/watch all seven tracks.

And the marketing?  Well, he has no record label...  This is all viral.   The project was initiated by 3 people who emailed a total of 20 people, who then spread it through twitter, myspace and facebook.   Just when technology or music seems like it's up against the wall, someone does something amazing.
