The Re:Generation Music Project

Tuesday, January 31st, 2012

RE:GENERATION Music Project

Any song that combines two genres into one is bound to be a hit regardless. Well, this collaborative effort takes that to EPIC next levels. Listen to DJ Premier, Mark Ronson, Skrillex, Pretty Lights and The Crystal Method as they remix, recreate and re-imagine five traditional styles of music. From the classical perfection of the Berklee Symphony Orchestra to the bayou jams of New Orleans jazz, the RE:GENERATION Music Project is the future of music, now.
