Ever want to take Michael Jackson's spot in the Thriller video or sing White Snake to Tawny Kitaen? Fliptrack is a newly launched site where users submit photos and video clips that are combined with soundtracks to produce personalized music videos.

With it HQ in Mountain View, Fliptrack has raised around $1.53M in Series A funding led by Mohr, Davidow Ventures with angel investors. It had previously raised $500K in angel funding. The company is led by Derek Reisfield (Vice Chairman, SVP). He was co-founder of Marketwatch, Luminant, and i-hatch Ventures and was the founding President of CBS New Media after the Marketwatch deal went down.

Fliptrack's music library is week. It has only 8 songs in the punk/metal category, for example, and none of them rock. Well, to be fair, You've Got Another Thing Coming, by Judas Priest does rock.
