There’s a great scene in the sci-fi comedy series
Rick and Morty, whereby Morty’s hapless father Jerry is accidentally abducted by aliens and placed in an extremely low-fi simulation, à la
The Matrix on a high-school production budget. Oblivious, Jerry utterly fails to notice he’s in a poorly constructed
faux-Earth, despite the fact that, for example, the world is suddenly almost entirely populated by identical carbon copies of the same three people. Anyway, Jerry is fake driving himself to fake work and flicks on the fake radio. The aliens, unable to simulate
actual terrestrial radio, make it up on the fly and announce that coming up next on “Earth Radio” is “human music.”
