Plunderphonics is a genre of music that uses appropriated music and sounds to create new compositions. Plunderphonic music is often highly subversive with the new compositions satirizing the source material. A classic example of plunderphonics is Negativland's "The Letter U and the Numeral 2". Negativland, an experimental sound band used audio of Casey Kasem bashing the rock band U2. That audio was rearranged to parody U2's popular song "I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For".
