I'm still asking myself if I can still call this one a mashup to this day! I mean... it's nothing like a traditional mashup in my book. It boggles my mind!
... Anyway, what largely inspired me to make this was a meme page on facebook called "Shiki Breeki" that I met during the time I was maintaining a similar meme page called "Sanrun Kagoora" there. I didn't even know the origin of the meme or the game S.T.A.L.K.E.R. and its memes at the time, but the joke got me anyway. Just pronouncing it sounded hilarious to me.
At the time I was working on the album I noticed that I needed to make more Shinovi Versus related stuff to add more variety and the idea of this "mashup" came to mind. I searched on the internet for a good midi version of the Bandit Radio song, slapped that on FL Studio and a better sounding piano there and then I put the results together with Shiki's theme. I even added some samples to help with the joke.
And then we got this stupid memey "mashup". Gotta say, though, the results ended up being good enough to grant a spot here.
