Has anyone ever tried mixing some good clasical stuff with some
"traditional" acid-jazz style beats? The idea just poped in my head and
I figure someone might have tried it before.

Check Clubbed to Death, a Mo Wax release from about two years ago. I forget
who they bit, but they chewed off a rather large chunk. They then used the
chord progression and made it into a club track. Also, one of the Clean Up
releases from 1995 (I think it's Koop's Jellyfishes) grabs something
from...night of the....flight of the....damn I forget, but it has a descending
chromatic scale played by a flute with the first note held, and then it goes
back up....after about five or six notes.....you've heard the flute line....
It really takes a clever mind to mix classical music with beats, as some of
the structured progressions in classical music would at first guess (mine at
least) not lend themselves all that well to groove-based, monotonal music.
