How cool is this? I mean, really?! It is a recording from inside a mother's womb using a tiny 8mm microphone near the head of a fetus at approximately 8 months development. The purpose of this record is to help newborn babies sleep. According to the liner notes:
"Of the 403 sobbing babies who listened to the tape, every single one stopped crying, with 161 dozing off to sleep in an average of 41 seconds."
Considering the machine-like rhythm of the gushing sound, it gives pause for thought on the effect of Industrial music on sniffing emo-goths.
Dr. Murooka was (is?) a noted Professor of Gynecology at Japan's Nippon Medical University in Tokyo.
