Mark Ronson has responded to criticism from Noel Gallagher that he ruins other people's songs.

The guitarist slated Ronson during a recent interview on Radio 1.

Speaking about the Oasis star's comments, Ronson said: "Noel Gallagher said I should 'learn three chords on the guitar and go write a tune'.

"So I just wanted him to know that I'm actually taking guitar lessons from Jay-Z right now and he's already taught me both chords to 'Wonderwall' (tune!).

"In fact, it's so much fun having Jay teach me all of Noel's songs on the guitar (hooray!) that I'm thinking of doing an Oasis/Jay-Z remix album a la The Grey Album.

"Potential titles are Champagne Superhova or Definitely Jay Z. I'll keep you posted."

At the end of his MySpace blog, he added: "P.P.S. Noel, I did write a song called 'Back To Black', which actually has seven chords in it."
