The "Libido's" rising. Catchy coital anthem "Disco Libido" has debuted at No. 37 on Billboard's Hot Dance Music/Club Play chart - proving a song comprising actual sex sounds isn't just an aural tease. With lyrics such as, "Now we must dance, so later we f-," the not-so-subtle single comes from "The Sex Album" by Jessica Vale, released in October. The album's music is composed of sounds of live couples copulating - with some acts performed by the vocal vixen herself. "People have gotten over the fact that it's made out of sex," says Vale, 27, who heard about her chart position while vacationing with boyfriend and co-producer Ivan Evangelista at Graceland. "Now they can just listen to music and move on." "I mean, I think by now we all know where the microphones went," she adds with a laugh, referring to the intimate recording sessions she had with seven couples she met in New York fetish and dance clubs. "I just want to focus on the music." She will do just that this Thursday at 9 p.m. at Nolita nightspot Arlene's Grocery. Flanked by a band and Evangelista, Vale will perform new material - none of which involves intercourse or foreplay. "I guess for me it's pretty standard music," she says. While her new material may lean toward the traditional, "The Sex Album" has yet to break into the mainstream. The Club Play chart is compiled from lists submitted by venue deejays who don't have to worry about FCC regulations and family-friendly programming. "To get spun in nightclubs across the country, it just has to be a good dance record," says Vic Latino, a deejay on local dance-music station WKTU. "Do I think a record with sex sounds would work on the radio? If the beat was driving enough and catchy, I totally think so." |
