Are Mashups the End of Music Genres As We Know Them? | Idea Channel | PBS

Origin Entry: PBS Idea Channel
Notes

The tenth episode of Idea Channel. In this episode, Mike shows that labeling musical works with genres may be becoming outdated with the rise of the Mash-Up.

Description

Some of the best things to be found on the internet are music mashups! It's a strangely pleasing experience to listen to totally unrelated artists commingling on the same music track. Mashups are awesome because they break genre expectations, which makes us think: why have genres at all?
