One of the better mash-up sites right now is The Hood Internet. The Hood Internet takes music from Indie bands and Hip Hop artists and just mashes them together. Despite the fact that the only similarity between these genres is that suburban teenagers are its biggest fans, the music is really good. Imagine The Go! Team and The Game on one track.
