"The Morning Song"- Andrew Kesler
This is a good 'ol quilt made by a good 'ol boy. Andrew Kesler made this clip in hopes of winning a contest on the Regis and Kelly show. The show wants people to send in creative, entertaining and unique videos about how they start their day. From all the entries there will be only 5 finalists picked on March 7th and the public will vote on the winner.
I was going to shoot a video clip of myself making a pot of coffee and shaving tomorrow morning and send that in but I was told that would be too normal.
Hey, by the way, did we mention that there might be a few familiar faces in our next Audio Quilt? Muhahaha...

Super Mario Bros. Theme Song
It's not secret that Super Mario Brothers is one the best games ever and its popular theme song only does justice to its awesomeness. But here's another top notch game that we just made up. Watch this multitrack by a rising star Audio Quilter, Christopher Souvey, and see if you can make it to the end without laughing once. Every time Souvey hits the high note in this one, there is a chance that it will bring delight to your otherwise uneventful day because of its sheer awesomeness. Try it out and let us know how you did.
The young Quilter hasn't done much with his channel to this point, but based on his talent, we expect him to start pumping out some quality videos in the near future: http://www.youtube.com/user/csvy. Three videos and 42 subscribers is worth noting.

The Electric Company and Mike Tompkins - The Electric Company theme song mash-up
Mike Tompkins!! -Making me feel more and more average with every view! This guy goes from making beats with Timbaland to working with "the electric company" to re-mix the theme song for their youtube channel "theelectriccompany." For those of you that have never heard of em, The Electric Company describes themselves as a popular channel that encourages literacy learning to kids through the use of today's freshest pop culture, original animations, toe-tapping music videos and exciting narrative story lines.
The kid with the hat that does the guitar in this quilt is awesome. I've watched this several times now and it doesn't get old. I would jog to this song if it were available on itunes and if I jogged.
Feel the power.

Bohemian Rhapsody - Matt Mulholland
Matt Mulholland is the freaking man. We're going to try and get this guy on one of audio quilts real soon. He's always got that touch of humor, even when he's legitimately wailing. You won't be disappointed by this sweet new audio quilt.

"Grenade" A Capella Audio Quilt
Hot off the presses, a fresh new Audio Quilt for your enjoyment. This is an attenuated cover of Bruno Mars' song "Grenade" by Myka J Dauster. We hope you like the slightly inappropriate surprise ending. We kinda wish this could have gone on longer but g's, we can't really complain about a minute of pure a capella deliciousness.

iNeRsHa
This video was made by YouTuber robg715. I couldn't find his full name anywhere although his band, Last Minute, is on http://www.myspace.com/lastminute1159. They are listed under the genres' of alternative, pop and rock. Ryan Pino, one of his band members, was featured on our blog recently for his baby quilt of the song "Fireflies". These two guys are insanely talented. Last Minute is going to be huge.

"I Get Around" by Simon Craip
This guy is just so cool we had to make another post about his work. Simon Craip performing "I Get Around" originally by The Beach Boys. The dude can sing and play a mini orchestra worth of intstruments. We're going to be watching this guy.

Muse - Feeling good [ one man band cover ]
This cover of "feeling good" by muse is very cool. I think TheDrumRider is on the up and up. He is just 16 years old! We will keep an eye out for his future AudioQuilts.

Amazing Grace A Capella
This cover of Amazing Grace just barely qualifies as a Mega Quilt and seems to have something a little different from other Audio Quilts going on. It's hard to place exactly what that certain thing is but we think it might have something to do with the hint of an accent and a mature arrangement of this classic tune. Also, we get the sneaking suspicion that Simon Craip may be related to Audio Quilter JP Craip - both from France. A little sibling rivalry brewing perhaps? What do you think?

Blindfolded Guitar - Fireflies + Flip Cup
Not only does YouTuber pinoguy321 play a filthy guitar, but he performs this audioquilt with his guitar blindfolded, and he does it with more percision than I do anything withOUT a blindfold on. And the song choice is really catchy too, so that doesn't hurt.

Moonlight Sonata on Crockenspiel
YouTuber Kurt Hugo Schneider, mid YouTube battle, whips out the crockenspiel and puts his spin on a familiar tune. Did you find the "off" note?

Here's a cover of Billy Joel's song "Goodnight My Angel". The song is amazing of course, but we are specifically impressed with the appropriate amount of reverence maintained in this thoughtful rendition. Did anyone else ever have a man crush on Billy Joel?

"If You Seek Amy" - Olimenardi
This Britney Spears cover is a fresh Audio Quilt with more of a rock vibe than you usually see or hear in multitracks. We especially like the slight hint of the singers' accents. Also, the female singer in this looked like a long lost sister of Britney Spears, no? Rock on.

Mike Beck - "Somewhere Over the Rainbow"
Mike Beck poses in multitrack, barbershop tag format, that classic question we've all pondered at some point in our lives - "If happy little blue birds fly above the rainbow why oh why can't I?" If you have an answer to that question, please enlighten us and our readers.
