...characters have been clever, innovative and satisfying to date. Blade II succeeds in continuing the tradition of matching mutant-related subject matter with a recombinant-genre soundtrack. The album delivers an impressive list of strange bedfellows: Hip-hop heavyweights including Eve, Cypress Hill and the Roots overlay samples from Fatboy Slim, Moby, Groove Armada and others. The result is bound to entice and entertain both curious and skeptical listeners...

...oldest styles of dance music and is the genre that inspired the classic move, the robot. Hip hop can be classified under breakbeats, whose primary characteristic is, funnily enough, its broken beat. Most of the music under the Electronica section of your local record store is breakbeats: Chemical Brothers, Fatboy Slim and Prodigy, to name just a well-known...

This cultural collision of the sweetest kind is the handiwork of guitarist Sean Watkins, 24; his sister Sara, 19, a violinist; and mandolin player Chris Thile, 20. Their virtuoso flights of whimsy give the music's Celtic roots a postmodern jangle of complexity. Says Watkins: "We want to bring...

...Maas a one-remix wonder. If anything, they much preferred lesser-known but equally well-crafted Maas tracks, occasionally jumping up and down with the reckless abandon of seventh-graders at a school dance. That's not to say that Maas avoided well-known tracks-another crowd favorite was Fatboy Slim's new single "Star 69," universally recognized by its spoken nonsense-meets-gratuitous-obscenity loop...
