PEOPLE LIKE US AKA Vicki Bennett, produces some of the most amusing audio and video to be found anywhere. Using incredibly bizarre, and what could usually be considered tasteless source material, she mashes elements of art and advertisment together into something truly unique. Inappropriate noises punctuate cheesy synthesized covers of outdated pop songs, while banal voice-overs from old commercials battle one another, occasionally interrupted by blasts of hysterical laughter. The samples, by themselves, would sound tedious at best; the sum of the parts, arranged in just the right order, overlapping in just the right places, is organic and clever. The effect conjures a strange opera performed by highly intelligent and disciplined African gray parrots.

You may laugh, you may cringe, or you may crave Lycra.
