The main difference between a mashup and a remix is that a mashup combines two or more songs together in order to create a new song, while a remix takes an existing song and changes it by adding, removing, or altering elements of the original. A mashup typically uses samples from multiple sources, whereas a remix can involve any type of audio material such as vocals, instruments, or even sound effects. Mashups also tend to be more experimental than traditional remixes, which often focus on making subtle adjustments to the music.
