I wonder if lazy uses of “Mario music” has transcended its original meaning of chiptune to now mean jazz fusion

imagining someone at Rate Your Music trying to add "Mario Music" as an AKA for Jazz Fusion now.

Well, Mario Kart has been the highest-profile J-fusion jam factory in the world for over a decade now. I love that this is the case.
