Soundtrack Suggestions
Massive Attack
Iszoloscope.
Queensryche "Empire"
Pneumatic Detach, Dazzling Malicious, ah coma-sotz.
Gravity Kills? Or some goa/acid/psy trance.
Sneaker Pimps, early Nine Inch Nails, Black Sabbath, the Octopus Project, the Bad Plus, and Johnny Cash.
Crystal Method, Aphex Twin, Prodigy, Joy Division, Throbbing Gristle, Kraftwelt.
VNV Nation for Shadowrun music. I dunno if Pandora has it, but X Japan would be good too.
Yoko Kanno
"Save Yourself" by Stabbing Westward
I've put this all on a Pandora station:

More suggestions:
Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex soundtrack
Blade Runner soundtrack (if you want to go old school)
Inception soundtrack BWONG!
The problem with soundtracks and is that you can't add albums to a Pandora station. You can either try to find an individual song from the soundtrack (I did that with a bunch of songs from the Crow soundtrack) or you can add the composer. Which can be problematic. If you add Vangelis, you get get the Chariots of Fire soundtrack. -Jeremy
For less corporate neighborhoods:
"Paper Planes" by M.I.A.
"Ain't No Rest for the Wicked" by Cage the Elephant
Aspects
Aspect Writing Tips - I love aspects, but I found in the last campaign I came up with some real suckball aspects. This page goes into a brief how-to, and some of the pitfalls to avoid.
Aspect Examples from EvilHat - Another thing that may help working up aspects is to come up with two to three Invoke and Compel examples along with your aspect. Why? Because if you can't think of a way to Invoke it, you're missing out. If you can't think of a way to Compel it, what makes you think our lovely GM will be able to? He's already got a ton to figure out already. ;)
CitySpeak
One of the things I kinda love from SR was all the slang. Cultures have melded together so much, that really anything goes as far as language. For a piece I'm working on, I found a good Japanese Slang resource, and I'll post a few others here once I get the chance.
