Master/Slave Relationship - Music For A Sadomasochistic Scene

Even though it appears Deborah Jaffe has taken a hiatus from the experimental scene Cybertzara/Blackmetal.com have taken the wise decision to reissue her Music For A Sadomasochistic Scene. Throughout the early to mid-nineties under the guise of Master/Slave Relationship Debbie released such delights as This Lubricious Love and A New Explanation For Decadence. Music For A Sadomasochistic Scene was borne out of a desire to produce something specifically for S/M play that lent the proceedings an atmosphere and attitude.

I'm in no way involved in the S/M scene so I can't really say whether this works or not but Music For A Sadomasochistic Scene is deliberately minimal. It threatens and seduces, with mammoth swathes of ambient keyboards, and the swish of percussion. In many ways it compares with Coil's How To Destroy Angels, which isn't too surprising as both are concerned with sexual energy. Debbie's been active in the S/M scene for well over a decade and most recently released a CD-ROM.

The booklet contains many extreme images of pinched, pierced and clamped genitalia. This reissue of Music For A Sadomasochistic Scene is strictly limited to 1000 hand-numbered and signed copies. For more information go to www.masterslaverelationship.com
