Bootlegs :: How to guide

Did you say 2ManyDJs? Yes, these Belgians were among the first to have produced any, as of 97. Today hundreds of bootlegs come out each week on the Internet (they are sometimes called Mashup: synonym of our national stoemp, but the word Bootleg is becoming more and more general. It is the first musical style without a precise musical style, since it involves all genres… drum, rock, soul, disco, reggae, funk, hip hop, electro, techno… all at the same time! And inevitably, according to these re-composers' tastes, there are bootlegs that are very underground or very warped, and some that are very obvious or very commercial. In fact, as usual, it's the appearance of a new tool that has caused the innovation.
