BiTrektual is the ninth studio album by Cuban American dark cabaret singer Aurelio Voltaire, released on September 2, 2012. It is a concept album containing songs parodying the Star Wars and Star Trek franchises – Voltaire is a fan of both. It also contains a Doctor Who-related song, "It's Bigger on the Inside". The album's title is intended to be a pun on the word "bisexual".


"The Trouble with Tribbles" excepted, all the Star Trek-related songs were previously featured on Voltaire's currently out-of-print 2001 EP Banned on Vulcan; they were all re-recorded for this release. A re-recorded, extended version of "Cantina", a song previously featured on his 2007 album Ooky Spooky, is also present. "Poopin' on the Enterprise", "Yoda" and "Damn You, George Lucas!" are not songs, but rather spoken-word monologues by Voltaire originally included on his 2006 live album Live!. "Screw the Ocampa!" is a parody of the Bahamian folk song "The John B. Sails", with lyrics heavily modified by Voltaire.


Robert Picardo, Garrett Wang and Tim Russ, all actors of Star Trek fame, and Jason C. Miller as well, provide additional vocals for some of the tracks.


Voltaire also made a contest on which fans would design the BiTrektual logo and cover art; the winner was eventually revealed to be artist Shamine King.[1]


The cover features Voltaire dressed like Obi-Wan Kenobi kissing Hikaru Sulu.
