Some use movie samples as their starting point: "Riding at the Speed of Sound" jazzes up the pathos-imbued vocals of 1960s starlet Carrie Ku Mei with rock riffs and a break-beat exuberance worthy of Basement Jaxx. Others are simply inspired by the movies, like the cheeky "(21st Century) Char Siu Bao," which features present-day siren Gloria Tang singing in Mandarin to the tune of "Mambo Italiano...
