haha, this guy, Roger Luke DuBois made a song called
billboard and it's made up of all the tunes that have ever
been on the top of the billboard list; each song gets one
second for each week it spent on the top of the list, and
each song is represented by some sort of middle value sound
of what the whole song sounds like. The entire thing is
supposed to be 37 minutes long and consists of 857 songs.

a few samples
1997
1984
1978
1964

it all ends up sounding kind of like the soundtrack to
certain parts of Silent Hill or something, but it's an
interesting idea. I'm kind of curious about the technique
used to analyse and re-represent the songs.. it says it's
called time-lapse phonography, and it's something he developed
himself, apparently...

Very cool.
Almost like the musical equivalent of Jason Savalon's work
