Deconstructed (Bush Album)
''Deconstructed'' is a remix album by British band Bush, released on 11 November 1997, through Trauma Records. It did not feature any new material but was a collaborative effort between the band and various producers working in the electronic genre of music to remix some of the band's previously released songs. " Mouth (The Stingray Mix)" was released as a single in 1997 and became a minor hit, due largely in part to it being featured prominently in both the trailer and the 1997 film ''An American Werewolf in Paris''. Three tracks from this album, "Mouth (The Stingray Mix)", " Everything Zen (The Lhasa Fever Mix)", and " Swallowed (The Goldie/Both Sides Toasted Please Mix)" also appear on Bush's 2005 greatest hits compilation, ''The Best of '94–'99''. In a 1997 interview with ''NY Rock'', Gavin Rossdale noted the development of ''Deconstructed'': :"It was an interesting idea, to try and mix two completely different genres, maybe influence the whole dance and techno scene with ...

In terms of performance, the major categories are live dance music and recorded dance music.
