Where music and technology collide...Press the Green Button

Techo and dance music have certainly had their roots in technology, but I don't often see the subject matter belong so wholly to its genesis. Did that make any sense?
At any rate, someone sent this to me and I thought I'd pass it on - with song titles like "Home of the Future", "Remote Control", and "Online", you know the musicians are geeks. And they're based in Redmond. Hmm. You can download the music in MP3 or WMA format. One song, called "Enjoy", has the Windows XP startup sound sampled - it's a little confusing to listen to. That reminds me of a story...
There's was a commercial on the radio a couple of years ago - I think it was for Energizer batteries. The commercial was a series of beeps sampled from all sorts of electronic devices - when I heard it for the first time while driving, I freaked out! I started reaching for every device I had, wondering what the hell was going on. I realized it was a commercial after a few seconds, but I don't think they did any testing of that commercial with a gadget-buying audience. To this day I hate that damn bunny.
