Remixing goes back earlier than hip hop. It started with dub versions of reggae tracks back in the 60s and 70s.
This is a cool little film. Looking forward to the next episode
…but don't most of those "dub versions" give credit to the original artist therefore not qualifying as a "remix" artist?
All your comments are just remixes of words used in previous comments. Banana.

"Jean-Baptiste Lully, in collaboration with Philidor in 1672, Arcangelo Corelli in 1700, Alessandro Scarlatti in 1710, Antonio Vivaldi in his Opus 1 No 12 of 1705, Francesco Geminiani in his Concerto Grosso Number 12, and Johann Sebastian Bach in his Peasants' Cantata of 1742 are considered to highlight this 'later' folia repeating theme in a brilliant way. Antonio Salieri's 26 variations, produced late in his career, are among his finest works."
