The drummer jokes are funny.
My wife asked me if this guy's drumming (video at the link) was sped up. Actually many people (Jojo Mayer, Johnny Rabb) are playing this drum-n-bass style, and yes it is based on recordings of drummers being sped up and re-sequenced, but now the patterns are being learned by hand at this speed.
