It seems that Jessica Vale a multi media artist from NYC "was really into Samatha Fox’s Touch Me,” when she was nine or ten. Vale says “Until my parents found out, and went mad and took the tape away. But that was a pretty neat song.” Now at 26 she is the only person to release an album with snare constructed from the sound of ass slaps but that's not even the start of the sample-spotting you could do on this album.

"the Rampant Rabbit vibrator is quite a versatile instrument."she admits "It has five or six different settings and revolving beads inside."

Jessica, Ivan Evangelista and Jean-Luc Cohen "used quite a few internal microphones"(electret condenser mics)", as well, to pick up, erm, shifts of internal fluids. They made sounds that were useful for layering.”

In fact the source of all the musical tones everything except the vocals provided by Jessica on this ambient to new wave, electro album was live sex. You can read that last sentence again if you want. after making there instruments(made up of acquaintances and people they had met here and there "A few were produced by me, but mostly they came from other couples," jessica said ) feel comfortable they would often employ PZM boundary mics placed around the room or strap stethoscope like mics on the appropriate body parts.

The raw data was manipulated into usable tones. "Jean-Luc created some ambiant pieces by approximating Brian Eno's synthesis algorithms in Reaktor"

Finally once they had created their "instrument palette" they sequenced with Reason, Pro Tools, Cubase, Logic, and/or Digital Performer.
