Best Answer

It doesn't; what you actually listen to in "standard media" including movies and TV is actually Spanish music -- you know, the music with guitar, some trumpets and castanets.

Mexican music is widely known to be very distinctive from that of other countries; it includes Classical Music and huapangos, as well as trios, mariachi and bolero music. Modern music includes rock, ska, punk, electronic and many other variations of pop.

Is music the same thing as sound?

No. Sound is anything from an explosion to a thousand nails on the blackboard, to the most beautiful music you have ever heard. Music is an organized niche of sound, an area where sound is at it's very best. But while music relies almost 100% on sound, music is not the same thing as sound. Sound is a much broader category.
