...recording, Rewired does show this trippy quality. While the album's blurry red cover art does indicate Lockgroove's hard, masculine sound, it doesn't convey how psychedelic that music can be. It throbs, like a beating red heart. "Come On," a signature track, uses minutes of wavy keyboard woven in with guitar and cymbals to introduce a rhythmic fusion of rock and elecronic music. Soon half-chanty, half-punky lyrics join in and there are occasional whistles and bells. But ultimately the sound is full of relentless waves of guitar, drum and keyboard...
...Besides the regular band members (Jose Sandoval '02 on keyboard, Taylor Terry '03 on bass and Mike Blaugrund '00 on drums), a plethora of guests populated the act. Using two of Harvard's best violinists, Joe Lin '00 and Christina Castelli '00, as well as Kate Bennett '00 on cello, to create the swelling strings in the background on "Anastasia" was a bit overblown, but it certainly was a good gimmick...
...Alicia designs. She's a picky person, and she welcomed the idea of a full-page head-shot with gusto she reserves for peanuts. She's allergic. I'm a back-seat designer.

Dancing, skipping and banging on a wastebasket are also advisable. Suzuki training on strings and keyboard can begin as early as three. Most children can learn...
...that it's an oxymoron; no one's agitating for a choose-your-own-adventure version of Martial Law. webRIOT hopes to score with a sort of cheap-'n'-dirty, Scud-missile interactivity. The game (accessible at www.mtv.com requires no special hardware or complicated interface; players simply use the keyboard as a buzzer. And, notes MTV programming head Brian Graden, successful game shows already have an "interactive" element: yelling at the TV. "They create the illusion that you are faster and smarter than the contestants," he says. "It's all about play-along...
