Welcome to the multimedia portfolio of Anthony Carasa. Since 2002, I've always made it a hobby of mine to play with editing music, videos, photos, just about everything. A year later I came up with the moniker "Xrossbreed" (inspired by a riddle that Lisa "Left Eye" Lopes (of TLC) submitted to fans shortly before her passing) and began making mash-ups, remixes, and extended versions of songs in order to breathe new life into them.

Since then, Xrossbreed has grown and extended into helping out independent projects and other artists. Some remixes can be heard at burlesque shows near you as Xrossbreed is the official remixer of the Powerhouse of the Midwest, Jeez Loueez ("Flashdance", "Uh Oh Spaghetti-O's", "Teeth", and "Jasmine's Confessions"). Other notable performers include Trixie Darling ("Chicago 2 New York"), The Double Diva, & (of course) Tito Bonito!

Consider this a part of my portfolio.

Early in 2009, I created a mock SNL promo photo of myself and after a few people asked about it and making one for themselves, I decided to make as many as I could for friends and family. Here are some of my favorites.

In February 2011, The 8th Degree hosted their very first show during Vaudezilla's monthly installment of "Broadzilla! The Burlesque Beast"

Xrossbreed Productions has been slowly growing since late 2002-early 2003 and in 2010 stepped up its game by releasing mixtapes as well as Lady Gaga & Rihanna fan-made remix albums, respectively.

Below you can download all four albums as well as listen to some of my mixes:

Once I began making graphics and remixes I thought to myself "what's next?" And after looking through home movies of my friends and I, it was clear as day. Montage videos are the equivalent of utter and complete happiness. Therefore I made one in 2008 called "Please Don't Put This On The Internet" featuring Rihanna's song "Don't Stop The Music" (at the time my favorite of hers). Two years later I had enough footage to make a sequel ("P Is For Pride").
