Abstract: This article locates and defines the mashup as its own genre of music, separate from collage music, hip-hop sampling, and other similar genres. A typology of works made from previously existing music helps to isolate typical characteristics present exclusively in mashups. The mashup genre is then refined into four subcategories: the basic mashup, the cover mashup, the paint palette mashup, and the megamix mashup.
