Well, unless you like the sound of the moaning. Aside from all of the
neat conceptual things that her album brings forward, I also just like
the sound of the human voice being used in unusual/unmusical ways. I
think it's the same reason why I dig the way the Soft Pink Truth (aka
Drew Daniel) works with voice samples. here I'm thinking of "Coat
Check" or "Soft Pink Missy" or "Everybody's Soft". Akufen, too, now
that I think about it.

(a small point of detail: isn't most of the moaning coming from Tagaq,
not Bjork? I suppose it's not always that easy to tell them apart when
the texture is that dense)
