medley
Songs stitched together
A medley is a mixture or assortment of different things: a medley of flavors, a medley of architectural styles.
In music, a medley strings together portions of different songs into a continuous piece, often linked by theme or artist: a Beatles medley, a medley of show tunes.
In swimming, a medley combines different strokes in a single race.
