After gathering all the song files on his list, Kim said it then takes him an average of around 180 hours of painstaking dedication to complete one of his end-of-the-year mash-ups.
Starting at the beginning of the year, he said he is constantly jotting down various songs that he hears ― whether it’s on the radio or outside ― to compile a seemingly never-ending list of hundreds of songs.
Kim is a self-admitted avid music listener and stated that an entire “Pop Danthology” compilation is a near yearlong process. But since there were already so many better singers and better instrumentalists on YouTube, I had to find something different that I was better at,” he continued. “I wanted to get myself out there in the YouTube world making my own renditions of popular songs. “My need for validation in something that I was good at first motivated me to produce more music,” said Kim in an email interview with The Korea Herald. So what first motivated the 29-year-old self-proclaimed artist, philosopher and healer to delve into a life of music and producing? His music productions’ tremendous success has now led Kim to subsequently publish an annual large-scale mash-up, including his most recent “2014 Pop Danthology.” The YouTube star’s latest mash-up features a mind-blowing hodgepodge of 66 popular singles of all varying genres into one, cohesively sound 5-minute-45-second track. Korean-Canadian YouTube sensation Daniel Kim (David Sheldrick) To date the debut mash-up clip has amassed more than 60 million views on YouTube. The clip was an instant viral success, gaining more than 10 million hits worldwide in just three days. In 2012, Kim unveiled his “Pop Danthology 2012” music video, in which the music producer selected more than 50 songs to intertwine and marinate together. Now breathing fresh life into and further expanding the growing popularity of song mashing is Korean-Canadian YouTube sensation Daniel Kim, who is best known in the online community for his annual “Pop Danthology” year-end productions. The out-of-left-field box office hit hysterically highlighted both the musical art of a capella, while all the while having young people mixing and mashing together popular tracks into a single harmoniously synced song. The 2012 Hollywood blockbuster “Pitch Perfect” helped rocket song mashing into the global, mainstream limelight. Much thanks to YouTube, technological innovation and sheer musical genius, the art of mash-ups is becoming one of the hottest trends in the music industry today.
