...resist reading hilarious dialogue like this. "A Chronicle of Modern Times" covers a good stretch of Crumb's career, from his early formative years to his recent autobiographical work. If it all gets too much, there's a chance to drop out, or at least drop off, in a chill-out zone with Crumb's music on the soundtrack. He plays the banjo, composes his own music, and is into early jazz.

Their sound is minimalist, downtempo, chill-out acoustic ambient music, both monotonous and strangely charming at times...
...hard to talk to women at raves, says Ben Wilke. The big beats drown out small talk. If you really need to, you can go to a "chill-out" room for get-to-know-you conversation. And if you really need them, there's "a moderate amount of drugs," says the 17-year-old from Houston. But for him, raves are "all about the music." Says Wilke: "Real party kids don't do drugs.
