Slicker than your average mash-up

To way oversimplify: most mash-ups are constructed on the premise of 'let's try vocal a over instrumental b' -  not that there's anything wrong with that...  But Lenlow's 'Sweet Child o Ravi' takes the deconstruction a lot further.  He grabs drum part a, and plays with riffs b, c, and d to see how they overlap, with a generous amount of pitch-fucking, to create something original and cool.  The song is vibing along trippily, when 90 seconds in, the "Sweet Child of Mine" riff shows up - the effect is like running into your rowdy friend from high school ten years later at chillout bar, and marveling at how much he's changed.  Or, you know, something like that...
