Mashup

Mashup music first emerged in the late 1990s when enterprising DJs realised that chopping up disparate songs was a fabulous way to create something entirely new; it’s a bit like musical collage but with less glitter and more bass drops. Characterised by the seamless blending of two or more tracks, it sounds like your favourite tunes have been thrown into a blender and served with a cheeky twist, often leaving you wondering if you should dance or just applaud the ingenuity. This genre hilariously proves that if you can't decide between two songs, you need only to combine them to confuse everyone at the party.
