I don't get this joke. Does Russian music sound like the creeping line from the screen during the news?
No, creeping line just looks like text of a song in karaoke system for his mother-in-law. And she loves karaoke very much. There was a time, karaoke (like every new thing we experienced) was very popular in Russia.

As for Russian music, try some. But remember that lyrics are more important for Russians than music itself. That's one of our national features.
