MUSIC which is funny

[dubdobdee.livejournal.com]

with the exception of my very muffled point on bosh and jel-style dragonforce metal, martin's the first to raise the issue of humour in the non-vocal part of the music (as opposed to the lyric writing or vocal delivery or use of performance)

I was going to suggest some house & techno actually - where a particularly cutesy or wobbly sound/riff comes in to rupture the straight 4/4 line; often in clubs I'll be bobbing around and this utterly ridiculous crazy sound will come in, and it'll make everyone present grin and giggle.
