Evolution Control Committee, a great group that smacked a Public Enemy vocal track on top of a Herb Alpert instrumental, has released a book (sheets in a 3 ring binder) that catalogs manipulated CD experiments. It has various photos of "detourned" CDs, explanations of the modifications and descriptions of the sounds. It may have come with a CD of the sounds but I can't remember. A friend of mine that runs a record/book shop had it so you can probably track it down. Should inspire many nights of plunderphonic buffonery.
