...trick is finding something you actually want to watch. With 55 unique shows, Pseudo boasts the biggest lineup, including pro wrestling, tech programs and hard-to-find music. But browsing the programs was as underwhelming as sampling those vast breakfast buffets in Vegas hotels. The techno, reggae and hip-hop music programs were fun to listen to, but the video seemed redundant: eyeballing a deejay is dull stuff. A space show, Cosmic Visions, had a good documentary about the Cassini mission to the outer planets, but it hardly seemed original. And the chat rooms on the site were almost always...

...instrumentalist Andy Barlow--better known as Lamb--craft excellent trip-hoppy pop in an unmistakeably British style, like a less morose Portishead. That comparison, however, belies the nature of the duo's music. The soundscapes that Barlow creates behind Rhodes's voice refuse to gel into the standard trip-hop forms; bebop, drum 'n' bass and harsh techno beats all find their way into an eminently digestible mix. The band has undeniable indie cred: they've sampled Charlie Parker, scored a British hit with a song based on the work of classical composer Henryk Grecki and had their songs remixed...

...face, one can't help but be amused by the nasal, child-like voices that punctuate tracks such as "Coz I Can," "Fire Like This" and "Attitude" with phrases like, "There's no school tougher than Hardknox." Such youthful cries of liberation and power with the infusion of hip-hop, distortions and just plain noise, make for a refreshing, pulse-quickening album. Supported by a serious passion for good beats and (not so) threatening themes, "Bitch better have my money," this album spells instant fun. It's the perfect excuse to turn up the volume, cut the lights...

...seven years, yeah I may rhyme about the same [stuff]. He may have an entire album about being pissed off about his life, eating acid and smoking pot and eating shrooms and [sundry items], but it's the most original thing I've heard come out of hip-hop in a while...

...into all sorts of music from jazz to hip-hop, encapsulating hardcore, rock 'n roll, classical, oldies and folk. James Brown is her reason for dancing. The names flow like water when she starts listing who she likes, but her ultimate favorites are Led Zeppelin and the Beatles because when she listens to their music, she falls in love. If she were to make everyone in the world listen to one person, it would be Bob Marley, because Bob Marley brings the world together... everyone...
