The Amen Break
"This fascinating, brilliant 20-minute video narrates the history of the "Amen Break," a six-second drum sample from the b-side of a chart-topping single from 1969. This sample was used extensively in early hiphop and sample-based music, and became the basis for drum-and-bass and jungle music -- a six-second clip that spawned several entire subcultures. Nate Harrison's 2004 video is a meditation on the ownership of culture, the nature of art and creativity, and the history of a remarkable music clip."
Thanks Pato for the clip tip.

Cookers
Guess it's time for an indie movie recommendation - and I'm talking the original sense of the word indie. Cookers is a paranoia story about two young outlaw drug addicts, who steal a van-load of chemicals used to cook crystal-meth. The couple sets up a lab in a rural farmhouse intent on cooking a batch of grade-A speed. Strange and terrifying things start to happen at the house and they don't know if they're hallucinating from all the speed or if it's real... The brilliant meth addict portrayal warrants a 9 out of 10 in my book.

Youtube & Co
Seriously - you need to spend some hours roaming the wonderful archive that is Youtube. An amazing amount of movie, tv and home video clips, music videos and everything else, more or less.
Other similar sites include MetaCafe, iFilm, Google Video and DailyMotion.

Movie Stuff
If you like movies, here's a couple of ressources.
IMDB - Internet Movie DataBase is one of the most impressive databases online. I have never drawn a blank - not even with regards to obscure, 'foreign' movies.
Rotten Tomatoes is a collection of movie reviews from a lot of (mostly American) sources. The generel opinion at the site is sometimes surprising. Be prepared for some stereotypical hammering. Metacritic is a similar site.
Filmz is a danish site, which works. It brings you news on movies and the industry.
I also recommend Apple's trailer-site, if your in the mood for trailers and teasers. The amount is pretty impressive, and it's updated.
For further movie information, check the movie label below. Also check the video label to see the clips on this site.

Crazy Japanese Game Show
"Terrible things happen on the sadistic Japanese game show Silent Library. And, because it's set in a library, the contestants must remain silent."

Psilocybin
Klubværelset på P1 handler i denne omgang om de euforiserende psilocybin-svampe. Denne her udsendelse er, så vidt jeg kan huske, det bedste jeg nogensinde har set og hørt i de danske medier om emnet! Jeg troede ikke, at man kunne komme så langt omkring emnet på så kort tid. Godt gået, Rasmus-mayn.
Nedenfor en lille time-lapse video af hjemmedyrk.
Sore Loser
Faith Hill clearly thought she deserved the Country Music Award for Female Vocalist of the Year.
Borat
Borat is all the rage right now. The movie Borat!: Cultural Learnings of America for Make Benefit Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan premiered in the US recently, so you can get it with your favorite filesharing app. I hated the Ali G character, but judging from the interview below, and the 8.5 rating on IMDb - at the time of writing #119 on their all-time top 250 - it's worth a shot.

Garden State
As far as comedy/drama/romance goes, you can do nothing but worse than Garden State. I lost most hope for the genre a while ago, but Zach Braff's directing debut hits home. 10 out of 10 in my book. You can watch the teaser below. I recommend that you do, it's a rare piece of teaser/trailer art. If you're into those things.

Grass
Grass is a great documentary on the history of marijuana in USA. It's narrated by Woody Harrelson, and it's funny and informative. You'll like those old American educational film clips. You can watch it at Google Video.

Brick
I give nine out of ten to the movie Brick (8.0 at IMDB), because it's kick-ass style-wise. It's a noir detective story, and the setting is high school USA. I think you will be pleasantly surprised if you like it (sic). It won the Sundance Film Festival Special Jury Prize for Originality of Vision. Here's a bit about the plot, and below is the trailer. If you're into those things.

I highly recommend the show Weeds. It follows a suburbian single mother selling weed, and the mood of the show is just excellent.

6 Years In the Life of a Guy Called Noah
This guy Noah took a photo of himself everyday for some 6 years and edited the pictures as a high speed slideshow. I think the combination of the steady look in his eyes, his slowly changing face, the high speed environment changes and the excellent original piano soundtrack is very expressive. Turn up your speakers.

Tom Cruise on Psychiatry
Interesting. It turns out to be Tom Cruise who a go at trying to start the discussion on the theoretical grounds in the field of psychiatry. He's quite a bit off on communication skills in this interview clip, but it is worth the watching.
To anyone interested in what this is all about I highly recommend Eliott Valensteins book Blaming The Brain. Excellent critical walk-through of the history of psychiatry.
