词源

From mix + tape; originally mix tape.
Originally referring to a homemade compilation recorded onto a cassette tape and circulated informally, especially within hip-hop culture, mixtape has broadened in sense. In contemporary usage it often denotes a musical project released outside the conventional album framework, typically characterized by looser structure, experimental material, or informal distribution, even when no physical tape medium is involved.
