I not so sure that your distinction holds up. Granted that the traditional stuff is mainly called Old Time, it has also been called Old-Time, Olde Time Tunes, Old-Timey, Oldtimey, Old Familiar Tunes, Hillbilly, Mountain Music, Traditional Country etc. More often than not, current performers of the music are called old-time musicians even though a proportion of their repertoire may be original or material recycled in a new form. Whatever it's called, it's great stuff.
