Mutations (megamix): exploring notions of the ‘DJ set’, ‘mashup’ and ‘remix’ through live piano-based performance

Mutations (megamix) is an interactive work for piano and electronics, which explores notions of the “DJ set”, “mashup” [1. The term “mashup” is used within popular music to denote a specific compositional technique in which two or more existing records are superimposed to create a new track. This often involves the use of vocal a capella material, which is layered against other recordings.
