Is Remixed Music Art?

Also, unless I'm misunderstanding what the OP is talking about, remixing isn't necessarily something tied to turntablism and sampling. A lot of the time it involves adding new elements to the original mix of a song. I don't really see how anyone can make the argument that that's any less creative than being, say, the person who laid down the bass on the original mix.

Is Remixed Music a Legitimate Art form?
Completely.
Do you think its creative?
Have you ever heard The Bloody Beatroots?
Is remixing music a reflection of post modern society that has made it so popular in today's society?
I think it's a reflection of rolling balls at D.A.N.C.E
Do you think that there are cultural/generational boundaries of remixing music?
Rave culture & MDMA, IMO.
Is it Legal or is there a loophole in copyright laws that doesnt apply to remixed music?
I think MGMT would have sued the **** out of people if it was illegal.
