I've heard quite a few 'Smells Like Teen Spirit' mashups and personally I like to play with 'Funky Monks' in my own DJ mashup fun set (careful of the half measure break in the middle of Funky Monks. ;) )

YMMV
NO MASHUPS

no mashups outside your own home.

yeah, i'm only just figuring out the hard way that you have to warp it properly
& that means spending time on it doing what most people consider a tedious task...
as hambone said, "practice, keybrd shcts & more practice".
sometimes there is no 'easy' way & you have to put in the hard yards but the outcome is that your track
(if you push 'save' in the clip box next to the sample editor0 is saved & warped for all time for future use in other sets.
i'll bet those rock kids will appreciate a stonking mash up thats in time & different to what they'de normally expect,
they already know what the song sounds like so surprise them :)

i did a mash up of 'tune duties' by the 16bit lolitas & 'it's ok, it's alright' by fine young cannibals, it took a bit to warp it properly but it was sooooo worth it.
