It *could* be creative, but for the most part we hear snippets of songs pasted roughly over some sampled drum loop or processed through the latest audio plugin. Thats not creative. Thats just lazy homogenized, meaningless dance fodder.
Look up Adam Curtis and watch his documentaries if you want to experience an actual insightful re-contextualizing old images and sounds. His stuff is here on YT.
It does take creativity to do a good remix. Anyway, an actual instrument does something similar to remixes, where you use sounds created by vibrations and mix them into a tune. Remixing takes that a step forward and mixes the mix.
This is a fantastic documentary!! saw it today, very good and inspiring aswell.

I agree with you, that's why I said "a good remix". Not all are like that, but there are quite a few

Yet more Post-Modern, McCluhanian blah blah.
Learn an actual instrument and use your actual imagination and express your actual self.
That's what builds culture.
