The term remix, defined as an activity of taking data from pre-existing
materials to combine them into new forms according to personal taste,
relates to various elements and areas of contemporary culture. Whichever
model used, consideration of the remix depends on recognition of
pre-existing cultural codes. Therefore, as a second layer, the remix relies
on the authority of the original and it functions at the meta-level. The
audience may see a trace of history with the pre-existing object and the
meaning creates in the viewer(s), reader(s), listener(s) or, in the
contemporary world of DJs and popular electronic dance music culture - in
dancer(s). With the aim of specifying modes of creating particular ambients,
this paper will consider and examine the song Why Don’t You? remixed by
Marko Milićević, a Serbian DJ also known as Gramophonedzie, and illuminate
how material from the past can create a constructive (musical) dialogue. |
