Porn Vortex: Hometape's "Redtube Album"

NSFW, obviously.

What could be a more apropos experiment for our time than an album composed of nothing but samples from a free porn site? Is it a critique of the male gaze or a celebration of online eros? The opening track "Hey There" and its video suggests the former, while the song "Rec" (my favorite on the album) seems more like the latter. More likely it's all in the eye/ear of the beholder, and the intent of the album was simply, as the artist says,  "a technical exercise to teach myself how to sample" that "got a bit carried away." Happens to the best of us.

Interplanetary Interlude #2: Songs About Fucking

Hey everyone, it's an Interplanetary Valentine's Day episode! For all of you who aren't getting laid this year, and for you weirdos who want to listen to crazy porno rock while you're getting laid, here's a batch of songs about fucking (nod to Big Black). The following is vulgar, sleazy, juvenile, too weird to be erotic, objectifies women, and doesn't make men look too great either. Is it satirical? Is it anti-love and pro sex? Is it slyly anti-sex, betraying a Swiftian horror of the human body? You be the judge! Remember kids, pussy stinks, but so does marijuana.
