| | Alternative Music |
| | Alternative music is often identified as that which is part of a counter culture. | | | Any pop music that cannot be neatly packaged onto a CD exists in an alternative form. | | | There are many styles of music that are considered alternative, perhaps too "difficult" for mainstream audiences to cope with eg thrash, punk, bizarre electronic stuff, anything considered "avante-garde". |

| | The film is comprised of interviews conducted with young adults across the urban American diaspora who have been immersed in alternative cultures and wrestled with the social dislocation resulting from being black and embracing a punk rock ethos. | | | Afro-Punk attacks this cultural dichotomy head on, investigating the issues concerning race and alienation dredged up by an exploration of punk culture. | | | Tamar Kali relates how a number of the facets of culture she discovered through punk— piercings, tattoos, spiked hair— were really sources of her true African and Native American roots. |

| | Hippie - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | The 1960s hippie culture evolved from the beat culture, and was greatly influenced by changing music style and the creation of rock and roll from jazz. | | | The back to the land movement, cooperative business enterprises, alternative energy, free press movement, and organic farming embraced by hippies were all political in nature at their start. | | | In the 1940s and 1950s the terms "hipster" and "beatnik" came into usage by the American beat generation to describe jazz and swing music performers, and evolved to also describe the bohemian -like counterculture that formed around the art of the time. |

| | Culture Shock Remix Service - DJs Only |
| | Culture Shock was formed out of the need for "mix-friendly" versions of alternative radio songs that we all know and love so much, yet cannot or will not play in a nightclub because they are, by definition, not "danceable" or "mixable." Culture Shock has solved this dilemma. | | | In typical Culture Shock style, we made this song mix friendly (we researched the hell out of the instruments they used at the time) and modernized it just enough to give a 22+ year-old song new life in the age of electroclash hype. | | | Well, the Culture Shock Crew found ourselves engaged in a whole variety of production projects and responsibilities, changes and evolutions, both professional and personal that kept us away, but like the Phoenix of old, we are back after our hiatus. |
