Click the flyer above to go to The Parkade in Second LIfe! Bootie is about the underground. It represents all the things you don't want to admit to liking, but are strangely drawn to. The music, the culture, the identity are all drawn together in one place and that place is Bootie. Bootie SL is the same. It's where the people in the know come to hang out, to gather in unison to dance the night away in a club fitting of the Bootie name. Like the DNA Lounge in San Francisco, Parkade is an industrial unit, once housing a thriving garage, it's now been transformed into one of the hottest, if not THE hottest club in Second Life.
 Every month, Adrian & the Mysterious D — also known in the bootleg community as A plus D — pick ten of their current favorite mashups. Most of these are recent releases, while others may be forgotten favorites or great bootlegs that fell through the cracks. This list is highly-opinionated, and listed in alphabetical order by bootlegger. For more detailed commentary on why each track was picked, check out the BOOTIE BLOG.

Clarksville, Arkansas, USA It's pretty much all the same. Also known as "bastard pop," a bootleg is a song that's "mashed-up." Usually, this means the vocal track of one song is mixed over the instrumentation of another. Using audio editing software, DJs and mashup artists combine different artists and musical genres to create new and unique songs that are often greater than the sum of their parts. Imagine Michael Jackson rocking out with Nirvana, Britney Spears singing with Daft Punk, Cher fronting AC/DC, or Ludacris rapping with Depeche Mode. Can't imagine that? Then get your ass to Bootie to hear for yourself! Is
this legal? So
where can I get these mashups? |

WHAT
OTHERS SAY "BootieSL: The only reason worth sitting at home in front of my computer on a Saturday night." -- Dov Watanabe "Bootie Parties are THE hottest Parties in SL -- worth losing sleep over!" -- TheDiva Rockin "Bootie
... well what does Bootie mean to me? From the rocking dykes and
mashup freaks at the old Cherry Bar to the cavernous DNA Lounge with
live shows, pirates ahoy, and superstar Jedi DJs, it holds a lot of
warm, fond, and slightly chaotically-tinged memories. From live drag
lip-sync fashion shows, seeing a crowd go mad for Eric Kleptone to
talking Kiss with Dada and a hobo outside, dropping a track you know
the Bootie crowd will go mad for and they do, there is a little bit
of friendly madness about Bootie.I've DJ'd there twice, once solo in 2004 and once
with friends in 2006 as Instamatic and DJNoNo -- it's always fun and
it's a credit to Adrian and Mysterious D that they instil a little
bit of the ol' Bootie madness even in a 1,500 capacity venue -- and
can now share that with the world with the audio stream and webcam.
Bootie via Mr. Kleptone even introduced me to one of the staples of
my set at Parkade -- Funkytown Kiss -- which with it's mix
of disco, Tom Jones, and Prince, kind of sums up in one track the Bootie
spirit, unashamedly pop but also slightly warped -- in a very enjoyable
way! "I've been going to Bootie in SL since before it was Bootie. I love mashups, and went to a mashup event that turned out to be Andy's first Bootie night at his new house! For fans of mashups, Bootie is THE source for the latest and greatest, and I think we're damn lucky to have the Bootie SF event streamed to SL. The Parkade is one of the only clubs I ever go to here, and Bootie SL has the best music in SL period! Thanks! -- Valerie Bethune, Bootie SL veteran |
