THE MIST by Stephen King

The best non-music demo of binaural around! Macabre master King is perfect for binaural reproduction - scarier than a King movie! Fully dramatized by cast of 30 plus creepy sound effects and original music. 73 min., from Simon & Schuster AudioWorks. Very Highly Recommended!

Clearly demonstrates the dramatic possibilities of the binaural art...It's a striking recording...The sense of depth and space is startling; the ambient feel of the environment combined with the sense of movement and positioning of the dialog and highly effective sound effects, makes for a memorable experience...Listen in a darkened room for maximum impact. ­­ Thomas J. Norton, STEREOPHILE

32 varied tracks of music from various Heyday CDs plus sound effects recorded with the Aachen dummy head. Probably the best fidelity of all our samplers!

EBB AND FLOW, from the EARTH SOUNDS Series

The Ocean beach becomes a musical instrument in this gateway performance between land, sea and sky. The 63 minute virtual audio tour taped by The Sound Tracker, Gordon Hempton, is a fine introduction to binaural

Someday Gordon Hempton's recordings may be heard at the last echo of nature at its most natural. - Philadelphia Inquirer.

 

TANGO SUBVERSIVO

Jürgen Sturm, jazz guitarist, and his tentet "Ballstars," have a ball on this fun session.

Sel. Include Maybe We Shouldn't, 77 Throughshine Slip, James Bounce, Last Xango, Flick Flag. Sturm, guitar; Stefan Bauer, marimbaphone; Hugo Ramirez, Herbert Leuchter & Semel Sembritzki, reeds; Jel Jongen, trombone; Pinguin Moschner, tuba; Michael Schoneich, bass; Manfred Rahier, drums; Am Leidner, percussion.

ALDEBARAN

Hugo Zuccarelli's sampler of sound effects and short music selections designed to demonstrate his patented Holophonics approach to binaural. Incl. the famous shaking matchbox, haircut & blower, bees, balloon, plastic bag, birds, airplanes, fireworks, thunder, racing cars. Plus South American folk music with guitars, panpipes, vocals,bagpipes etc. 26 tracks, concluding with big orchestral fanfare. An excellent introduction to binaural which captures all the positions of all the sounds in the surrounding space just as we hear it in real life.

 

CYBORGASM Vol 1

Cyborgasm 1 & 2 are the first erotic audios to be recorded in binaural, using the Aachen Head Acoustics system for what the albums' producers call "Virtual 3D Audio." Using sonic rendering and digital imagination, these two collections of sketches are a sound garden of fleshly delights. They are also one of the most convincing demonstrations of binaural's ability to put the listener where the sound originated - on an equal with the Steven King dramatization "The Mist" on our main site - but Hot instead of Chilling! The producers were Lisa Palac, Editor of FutureSex magazine (whom the New York Times called "the Queen of High Tech Porn") and Ron Gompertz, formerly of Heyday Records (whose binaural music CDs are also offered by THE BINAURAL SOURCE). Also involved were top writers, actors, sex educators, storytellers and musicians. This series originally sold over 70,000 in distribution by Warner Bros. Records.

Lisa Palac said "This is a collection of sexual realities...It wasn't easy, but we did it. There's a common perception that it doesn't take much to create erotica...In truth, it may be one of the most difficult things to do. Even the most original and creative ideas end up foiled by the overall stigma associated with (gasp!) pornography."

The different tracks feature men and women telling erotic stories and sharing their explicit fantasies with you - from whispered sweet nothings to no-holds-barred lust. Also amorous encounters and erotic spoken word, mixed with sensual music and natural and environmental sounds. For some of the wildest recorded listening of your life, just put on your headphones, close your eyes and open your ears and mind!

Volume 1 features such noted performance artists as Annie Sprinkle, Susie Bright, Don Bajema and Mistress Kat. Some of the titles are: Virtual Love, Embrasse-moi, Deep Inside Your Cosmic Body Erotic, Lost Innocence, Daddy's Grrl, Wet Nightmare, The Swing.

 

CYBORGASM Vol 2

Volume 2 presents noted monologist Josh Kornbluth in a hilarious recounting of his initial sexual experience, also Carol Queen, Lisa Palac, Susie Bright and others. Some of the titles are: Puppy, Mardi Gras, Vicious Panties, Peep Show, Rodeo, and Inside Marcie's Bedroom.
