Cyborgasm

CD Review

Sometimes the sexiest part of a porn video is the sound. Not the soundtrack, mind you, which is almost always woefully and unbearably bad, but the actual sound: moans, groans and dirty talk. Well, since visual smut evidently stimulates mostly the male population, Passion Press believed there was an aching void of less explicit stuff for females and couples. Snugly fitting that void is their line of erotic audiobooks. Their most popular release, Cyborgasm, contains much moaning and groaning and dirty talk, all designed to get you in the mood. Edited by Lisa Palac, proclaimed by The New York Times to be "The Queen of High Tech Porn," this anthology features such erotic pioneers as Annie Sprinkle, Susie Bright and Bunny Buckskin, each offering their interpretation of aural sex. The CD sleeve directions instruct you to get comfortable in a quiet place, dim the lights and push "play." Heh-heh, and keep that volume down, because if the neighbors hear this, you'll be loaning out lots of sugar!

Cyborgasm was recorded with virtual reality technology for 3D sound, which requires that you use headphones for the proper effect, but I simply can't see myself giving head with headphones on. Still, the sexy screwing and cooing that wafts through the air is lacking only a Scent-O-Rama accompaniment for a full sensorty experience. Which is where, one would hope, you and your partner come in. Heh-heh. After only a few minutes of listening to these stimulating fantasies, I guarantee you'll be emitting all sorts of pheromonal signals. I'll put it this way: Passion Press has sold over 70,000 of Cyborgasm and Cyborgasm 2: The Edge of the Bed. So it must be working for someone!
