remixes

Songs made anew

Remixes is the plural of remix—a new version of a recorded song created by rearranging, adding to, or otherwise altering the original.

DJs and producers create remixes for dance floors, radio play, or fresh artistic interpretation: The album includes three remixes of the title track.

The term extends beyond music to any creative reworking: The internet is full of remixes of classic movie scenes.
