What is a'mashup' and how does it differ from a remix?
assistant
A mashup is a combination of two or more songs, usually by splicing together different parts of the tracks. It can also involve adding new elements to the song such as samples, beats, or vocals. Remixes are similar in that they combine two or more songs, but with the addition of new sounds, instrumentation, or vocals. Mashups often have a more experimental feel than traditional remixes, while still retaining some of the original elements.
