Suup.

I have 10 gigs of storage left on my zen and want to fill it up before I leave (minus a gig for photos, etc). I'm looking for recommendations on:

Music- Anything really. Would like some good electronic mixes of all assortments, plus indie rock/emo-like stuff, alternative, even instrumental Talvin Singh-ish stuff.

T.V- Comedy mainly, but anything that doesn't fit the usual mold is smiled at.

Video- Almost anything, not really interested in anime or foreign stuff (unfortunately) as my player does not support the subtitle files. Unless they are embedded, of course.

I use torrents mainly. Thanks everyone, I have already nabbed a few good albums and films from your recommendations in other threads so I thought I would try again : )

Music

Saul Williams - "The Inevitable Rise and Liberation of Niggy Tardust"
Chromatics - "Night Drive"
Muscles - "Guns Babes Lemonade"
The National - "Boxer"
Battles - "Mirrored"
British Sea Power - "Do You Like Rock Music?" <--This one might be difficult to find because it doesn't get released until early 2008, but I'm thoroughly enjoying my promo copy of it.

TV

Spaced - it's a great British comedy series from the guys of "Sean of the Dead" and "Hot Fuzz".
Flight of the Concords - comedy based around a new zealand indie duo.
Dexter - drama based around a miami pd forensics officer who's actually a serial killer.
It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia - absolute off the wall comedy about a group of friends who own a bar.

Animation

Sealab 2021
Metalocalypse
Lucy Daughter of the Devil
Boondocks
Harvey Birdman
Venture Bros.
Frisky Dingo

Basically the entire Adult Swim library.

First time I saw UHF and that gag happened, I was convulsing on the floor barely able to breathe with laughter.

It broke me.

Damnit Jim, you took all my cartoon recommendations.

I have 4 seasons + 1 miniseries of Farscape. Very cool sci-fi show about a dude who gets sucked through a wormhole and ends up with a bunch of escaped prisoners on a living ship. Probably my favourite Sci-Fi show post-ST:TNG. The Jim Henson company produced it so the aliens are super-awesome.
