Music For Sexual Parties Vol XVII – A Sonic Punch to the Gut
Alright, buckle up, because K’s Music For Sexual Parties Vol XVII isn’t your grandma's playlist. This 2020 release from Germany via Catgirl Records slaps you in the face with its unapologetic noise-electronic chaos. It’s raw, it’s messy, and yeah, it’s kinda brilliant if you’re into that sorta thing.
Let’s start with “Untitled,” because how could we not? The track is a wild ride, like someone threw a blender full of broken glass and static into a rave. You don’t listen to this—you survive it. It’s relentless, pounding away at your skull until you either love it or wanna throw your headphones out the window. That’s what makes it stick though; it doesn’t let go. Every screech and stutter feels intentional, like K is daring you to keep up. Spoiler: most people won’t.
Then there’s another banger (well, relatively speaking), which I’ll call “The One That Sounds Like Industrial Hell.” It’s got these jagged synth lines that claw at your brain while layers of distortion pile on like they’re trying to bury something deep. And maybe they are—this whole album feels like an exorcism for machines. You can’t dance to it unless your idea of dancing involves convulsing uncontrollably on the floor. But damn, does it leave an impression.
K didn’t make this for everyone. If you’re looking for chill vibes or anything remotely “normal,” good luck. This is music for freaks, weirdos, and anyone who thinks silence is overrated. It’s ugly, confrontational, and oddly addictive. Listening to it feels like being dragged through a dystopian nightclub where nothing works right, but somehow, you still had the best night of your life.
Here’s the kicker though: as abrasive as it gets, there’s a strange beauty here. Maybe it’s the way the noise builds and collapses like waves crashing against steel walls. Or maybe it’s just proof that sometimes art doesn’t need to be pretty—it just needs to exist. So yeah, check out Music For Sexual Parties Vol XVII. Just don’t say I didn’t warn ya when it ruins all other music for you.
