Jordan Roseman (aka DJ Earworm) is a San Francisco-based mashup artist who has achieved recognition for his technically sophisticated, songwriting oriented music and video mashups. His annual “United State of Pop” mashup features the top 25 songs of the year according to ''Billboard''s Year-End Hot 100 chart in one mix. ==Biography== Roseman was born into a big family of musicians and raised in eastern Iowa and Evanston, Illinois. At the University of Illinois, Roseman started as a physics major, before changing to music theory and computer science.〔 Roseman started creating mashups in 2003, which he said "was a relatively unexplored art form," with most people doing "A vs. B mashups (featured ) an a cappella of one song and an instrumental of another." He began by using ACID Pro, and after showing them to DJ Adrian at Club Bootie and receiving encouragement from him, Roseman created the moniker DJ Earworm ("earworm" referencing a song that repeats uncontrollably in one's mind) and began releasing his mashups online.〔 DJ Earworm has a unique mashup style where he gradually layers song samples over each other, which add texture and builds momentum as a song progresses. This is a contrast to other mashup artists, such as Girl Talk, who has a more DJ-oriented approach, by stringing samples together in long chains, and then discarding them once he has used them. In 2006, he published ''Audio Mashup Construction Kit'', a how-to manual for creating mashups.〔 Earworm uses Ableton Live and Adobe Audition to create his mashups and also DJs live with Ableton. For the videos that accompany his mashups, he uses Final Cut Pro X.〔 In 2010, Earworm started VJing in his live sets.〔 Earworm's "United State of Pop" videos from 2008, 2009 and 2010 were featured in a FACT exhibit titled, The Art of Pop Video, that ran from March–May 2013.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Amateur - FACT (Foundation for Art and Creative Technology) )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=The Art of Pop Video )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「DJ Earworm」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
