i have been meaning to post on this topic, if only to make a quick mention a
few releases related to the topic.

Namely:

Blackhumor: Peace In Our Time CD
-consists solely of looped and layered field recordings of the artist's
friends having sex. about an hour long...

Redwing: Lilith  CD
- very subtle electroacoustic treatments/processings/deconstructions of a
very sexy sounding woman. quite ambient but then she reaches for your ear
occasionally too...

Psychic TV: Themes 3 LP
-field recording collage with all sorts of disturbing juxtapositions,
including a long segment layering a woman seemingly at prolonged orgasm,
slow balinesian music, and a baby crying woefully...

Chicks With Dicks: Double Penetration
- some bloke named H. Bruntt (from Sweden?) doing noisey lofi electronic
deconstructions of vocal soundtracks from porno movies. brings new meaning
to the word "dirty" :)

Jonn Duncan: * i cant remember the name of this release off hand*
- electronically processed recordings of Japanese porn films, including
sound recordings sourced from a film he made himself while visiting Japan.


of course, while each above relates in some fashion to sex and music
directly,  most of these are not exactly idm-ish, if that happens to be a
requirement of yours (hence my crosspost)...

anyone else have any other examples?
