You've see the Nissan Altima commercial where jungle brothers Ming + FS record the sound of doors slamming and windows going up and down, then run the sounds through ProTools to make a techno song. And you've heard Matmos' A Chance to Cut Is a Chance to Cure, which was created entirely from the sounds of plastic surgery. Well, electronic funk maestro and pal to the Tigerbeat6 krew Venetian Snares (aka Aaron Funk) has decided to sex this G-Rated premise up-- he's recorded the sounds of he and his incredibly open-minded girlfriend (Rachael Kozak, aka Hecate) doing the horizontal trip-bop, and plans to assemble the sounds into a full-length album. ... Says Funk in the January 2003 issue of Playboy: "It's weird to deconstruct the sounds of sex. It makes you conscious of a lot of stuff you'd normally ignore. I remember thinking shit like, 'Oh, that slap will make a good snare drum.'" If nothing else, concentrating on the tonal qualities of an ass-slap should be an interesting new way for our male readership to forestall orgasm. Just don't forget about her needs, guys. While a full tracklist has yet to be released, it's probably more fun to make up song titles yourself. Here's hoping Hecate doesn't dump Venetian Snakes, prompting a masturbatory solo album. *snicker* Nymphomatriarchs |
