Amp
1996 · TV series · 60 min episodes · 2 seasons
Amp was a music video program on MTV that aired from 1996 to 2001. It was aimed at the electronic music and rave crowd and was responsible for exposing many electronica acts to the mainstream. When co-creator Todd Mueller left the show in 1998, it was redubbed Amp 2.0. The show aired some 46 episodes in total over its 6-year run. In its final two years, reruns were usually shown from earlier years. Amp's time slot was moved around quite a bit, but the show usually aired in the early morning hours on the weekend, usually 2am to 4am. Because of this late night time slot, the show developed a small but cult like following. A few online groups formed after the show's demise to ask MTV to bring the show back and air it during normal hours, but MTV never responded to the requests.

Up-voted for dragging Lamb into an HN thread. ;)
Somehow appropriate for a decade old article about 90's vintage desktop MP3 software.
Now go and try to locate rips of episodes of AMP from MTV and complete your electronica collection.
