Remix

A remix is a piece of media which has been altered from its original state by adding, removing, and/or changing pieces of the item. A song, piece of artwork, book, video, or photograph can all be remixes. The only characteristic of a remix is that it appropriates and changes other materials to create something new.

Most commonly, remixes are associated with music and songs. Songs are remixed for a variety of reasons:

Post Malone

Austin Post (born July 4, 1995), better known by his stage name Post Malone, is an American recording artist and songwriter from Dallas, Texas. He first gained major recognition for his single "White Iverson" after releasing it on SoundCloud in February 2015. He is currently signed with Republic Records.

Early life

Austin Post was born on July 4, 1995, in Syracuse, New York. When he was 10-years old, he and his family moved to Dallas, Texas. He enjoyed playing basketball and watching sports. His father was the Dallas Cowboys' assistant director of food and beverage, and this meant that he was able to get free food and tickets to Dallas Cowboy games.

Post then taught himself on how to play the saxophone, and then he became a member of the heavy metal band in high school. He credited his initial interest in learning guitar to the popular video game Guitar Hero. He first learned how to produce music through FL Studio. When he was 16-years old, he's been started working on his first mixtape. He showed it to some of his classmates and it gained some popularity at his school. He credits his love for music to his father, who exposed him to many genres, including country music, while growing up and also his cousin Raj who exposed him to rap music at a young age. He often mentions his cousin who he used to watch basketball with from a young age but has lost touch with because of his new found fame.

Television content rating systems

Television content rating systems are systems for evaluating the content and reporting the suitability of television programs for children, teenagers or adults. Many countries have their own television rating system and countries' rating processes vary due to local priorities. Programs are rated by either the organization that manages the system, the broadcaster, or by the content producers.

A rating is usually set for each individual episode of a television series. The rating can change per episode, network, rerun and per country. As such, program ratings are usually only meaningful by stating when and where this rating is used.
