Good SEX music.....What do you listen to when you do it?

MOON SAFARI works because it's suitably ambiant and relaxed, for the most part.

Other frequent choices: BLUE LINES by Massive Attack, PROTECTION by Massive Attack, IT'LL END IN TEARS by This Mortal Coil, BLOOD by This Mortal Coil, PIECES OF MAN by Gil Scott-Heron, THE PINK OPAQUE by Cocteau Twins, MAXINQUAYE by Tricky, MAN by Neneh Cherry.

Ultimately, it's really all a matter of taste and mood. Hell, if all parties concerned are in the righ mood, it really doesn't matter what's playing, be it MY BEACH by the Surf Punks or AT WAR WITH SATAN by Venom.

You have to let things happen by accident, I've found.

Well, now, it's funny you say that Jordan, because that was my most recent accidental situation...

I once had a VERY interesting experience whilst Godspeed's debut LP was playing.

Greetings From LA on repeat. "This is the... ugn... fourth time... I've... ugn... ugn... ugn... heard... ugn... that... ugn ugn ugn... song..."

Hm? No reason to hate you for that. It's woozy enough.

Greetings From LA on repeat. "This is the... ugn... fourth time... I've... ugn... ugn... ugn... heard... ugn... that... ugn ugn ugn... song..."

Well, jeez, considering what the first song *is* and all.

Ha, you should add that to the AMG reviews, Ned. :>

I suspect there would be complaints.

my roommate, a total addict, swears by the neptunes instrumentals cd i gave to him. the instrumentals, cause the vocals can be distracting.

G

Things I have listened to when I did it:

Aphex Twin's "SAW 85-92"
The Orb's "The Orb's Adventures Beyond The Ultraworld"
Madonna's "Confessions on a Dancefloor" (twice, both times tongue in cheek)
Luscious Jackson's "Fever In Fever Out"
pretty sure someone played Dead Can Dance once

Whatever's on the Weather Channel. No joke that's where the composers of 80s porno soundtracks have gone out to pasture. But these days they're playing Christmas renditions, so you can either get into that or not.

The only other music I've listened to for sex in recent memory was we put on some trance station on Pandora. And I haven't really listened to much trance since I was a teenager, but I must say that it was pretty good for bonin'. Later on that night I tried to switch it to a Lindstrom and Prins Thomas Pandora station, and that started out alright, but devolved pretty quickly and we both burst into laughter and turned it off, with my wife saying "I can't fuck to this elevator music!"

This year, it has been Ripperton's Niwa. Many, many times. There was also a memorable encounter to Leonard Cohen's Live In London, which admittedly wouldn't have worked in any other circumstances.

Justin Bieber. Hanson. Jackson Five. Avatar OST.

soundtrack to commando. dig those steel drums.

Gnawa music. This album went down a charm:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=02WenDQCp2Q

Most fun I've had was to Stooges' Funhouse. You want something with a bit of grrrrrr, y'know? Orb and AT is pretty good afterglow music, I guess.

Worst I ever did was the White Album. It was all good until Obla-Di-Obla-Da showed up. "oompa-oompa" is NOT sexy.

teddy p mother fuckers.

Madonna's "Confessions on a Dancefloor" (twice, both times tongue in cheek)

ho ho ho

I've always thought that Mazzy Star would be the ultimate in dreamy romantic lovemaking music.

My worst ever passion-killer: Trio's "Da Da Da (Ich Lieb' Dich Nicht, Du Liebst Mich Nicht)"

Tom T Hall

http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/41DD52NS7KL._SL500_AA300_.jpg

A reoccurring gag in Don McKellar's Last Night has Callum Keith Rennie's put Parliament's "I've Been Watching You (Move Your Sexy Body)" on each time he makes a conquest / crosses a act/partner type off his bucket list. Should I date another fan I'll have to put it on (for laughs, if nothing else). It segues into "Funkin' for Fun".

I've Been Watching You (Move Your Sexy Body) youtube

I can't think of anything more guaranteed to kill the mood than Justin Bieber. Maybe Burzum.

Bows, Luke Sutherland's band after Long Fin Killie, are actually the sexiest music ever.

My Bloody Valentine "Loveless" an obvious choice but it works

Brightblack Morning Light for sure

secret weapon, risky but amazing: Etant Donnes https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tB5yWzGBb1Q

Mazzy Star also otm

'nother shout out to Teddy P!

Add:

Sade - Stronger Than Pride
Cure - Carnage Visors

Tuva music

Brightblack's good, too -- there's that BBML video of the gal, you know, face-shot while she's obviously grinding through the whole tune. Right on.

I'm listening to Pitchfork's top songs of 2010 (starting at 1) and I'm definitely noticing a lot of porno-sounding electronica in these songs

anything you can't ignore is bad for sexing imo

I cant ignore most of this music because it's soo bad

I'm listening to Pitchfork's top songs of 2010 (starting at 1) and I'm definitely noticing a lot of porno-sounding electronica in these songs

first time i've heard ariel pink "round & round" referred to as porno-sounding electronica tbqfh

Maxwell's Embrya is pretty much perfect.

- Savath & Savalas (lolcollege)
- Depeche Mode (Violator especially)
- Bill Evans "You Must Believe in Spring" record
- Mirror Mirror
- The Golden Girls episodes
- Donna Summer's live record
- X (my favorite)

lol it took 3 posts to get to Air's Moon Safari.

You know, I actually bought Moon Safari solely on the recommendation of this thread. I feel that it is less "music to have sex to" than "music for a day spa or clothing boutique".

Yeh, I couldn't get freaky with Moon Safari. It's too...schmoozy. Romantic maybe, but hardly sexy.

Yes - schmoozy! Like a monthly cocktail hour for twentysomethings at the art museum or something.

ah yes violator back in high school was always fun.

something about 'blue dress' worked like a charm.

maxwells urban hang suite was always classic too, man i feel old.

first time i've heard ariel pink "round & round" referred to as porno-sounding electronica tbqfh - ilxor

I didn't mean every song on the list. You took what I said a little too literally

Urban Hang Suite... oh God, yes, yes, YES. It was usually that or Bedtime Stories in the Nineties.

i also did a lot of fantastic fucking to janes addiction. good times.

I didn't mean every song on the list. You took what I said a little too literally

hahahaha O_O

there were also time when i wanted to be romantic and i would put on the sundays...eventually the balls would get licked and i'd have to switch to something more pornish.

am i the only person who's had sex to "she's a beauty"? at an 80's party.

I hope so.

ah yes violator back in high school was always fun
The makeout album of 7th grade.

i only have bad sex, so nothing

the sweets sounds of pussy farts.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ezM3FCnX--w

this whole album does the trick in my experience

Lupe Fiasco

xpost r&s is not a bad choice

y'all are cheeseballs

every sex act in every 90s dorm room in America happened to this tune:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TFLRHPUWBI8

haha i totally had a college roommate at Berkeley who was a self-righteous, rather corny "AIDS activist" dude with a leather jacket and lotsa ACT UP stickers who would get it on with guys he'd pick up to Enigma and Enya- whenever we heard that break and the "doo doo do doooooo" riff we knew that it was lovemakin' time chez Ellsworth St.

Oh yeah - Fugazi - Instrument.

nothin, definitely nothin

The two last lap dances I performed were soundtracked by:

Massive Attack - 'Paradise Circus'
N.E.R.D. - 'Hypnotize U'

They were great.

^^^real post right here

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0jPHuIxoyAI

i wonder what deej prefers to hear when performing and/or receiving lap dances

I can tell you Current 93 has been a hit with zero people.

For sexoring, I have no idea how that'd work for lap dances.

am i the only person who's had sex to "she's a beauty"? at an 80's party.

Presumably one other person has.

I wonder if deej can afford a lap dance at all.

whats w/ everyone propositioning me itt

last time it was to Voodoo. good choice imo.

i think this album would fit-the-bill

aw, it works for me. i've also had some fun road trip / handjob times to eliane radigue. you know, ambient and meditative for the slow stuff (but not eno or anything, it's gotta have an edge).

I once got a lapdance to Foreigner's "I Want to Know What Love Is" from a hot go go boy at the Club Adonis in Montreal

it was fabulous and depressing and sexy and hilarious all at the same time

i saw chicks attempting lap dances to Master of Puppets once, until the host got ticked off that someone selected that song on the jukebox and cut it at the quiet part

weirdly this song sounds really sexxxy on a really hot summer day when you're uh taking ur time.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mmqSgSxDWEo

i swear i am not markers

First (best?) lap dance, when I was 20, at the Razzamatazz in Seattle, WA, was to "Silent Lucidity."

i was gonna say "i dont think it counts as sex unless you come" but i was worried about where i might be leading that story

just wanted to clarify: i am not plax. repeat: i am not plax.

later

The only hitch with Mazzy Star as mood music, in bed or at coffeehouses or parties, is the song on So Tonight That I Might See that ends with a long, long, long drawn-out farfisa note.

weirdly this song sounds really sexxxy on a really hot summer day when you're uh taking ur time.



i swear i am not markers

Agreed. All about the Kotsche and the drone.

Lap Dances must be performed to Ratts Round n Round.

While we're on the topic, does anyone know what that song in Showgirls was when Nomi gave Zach a lapdance at the Cheetah? I tried to find it once but failed

Me and my ex used to do it to blissed-out old skool rave, maybe not everybody's cup of tea.

Hurt U So by Jonny L was a favourite.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c4_t6IwfaDY

Now I'm picturing chap fucking in some blacklit zebra-print room with strobelights everywhere fucking with crazy tribal Day-Glo facepaint

and now I'm promptly trying to unimagine it.

I can send you pictures if that would help.

Right after I read that I tried searching for something and instead of typing "Nan Goldin" I typed "dnw"

is it "rip pop go the zippa" stevie?

No, I just found it, it's

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h-u1PjV_4M4

This is some "Justify My Love" level of songs that try to sound sexy but if anyone actually tried to get sexy on me with this shit I would just laugh hysterically

haha.

Yeah was going to say, sometimes the blatantly obvious ends up being either annoying or hilarious. I've learnt the hard (soft?) way to never leave my ipod on random. So many times I've had to stop in the middle cause some sexed-up soul or funk appear and it feels like it's too much, breaks concentration.

Ha ha, a mate of mine was having sex while his ipod was on shuffle and Simply the Best came on! Nothing is a greater moodkiller.

I feel like Glasser would be great here

Jimi Hendrix. Wife HATES Pink Floyd, Led Zep, pretty much every other classic rock guitar abuser you care to mention, but Hendrix. Phew. Oh yes.

first time gf and I got it on it was to Joy Division. not my gdamn choice

Lost my virginity to Godspeed You Black Emperor.

Which was fun.

Ha ha, a mate of mine was having sex while his ipod was on shuffle and Simply the Best came on! Nothing is a greater moodkiller.

You would see the biggest "gift" would be for me

Bitches Brew is an old favorite.

I can see that working. In A Silent Way does.

idk with me i'm happy if i make it thru both sides of the cassingle

xp they had it on repeat

Future Disco Vol 3. Awesome.

The Classic R&B channel on Comcast.

Goblin.

All the future disco comps are worth a sexy spin in sexy times.

School of seven bells - Half asleep

Always seems like "Sinnerman" would be some up-against-the-wall soundtrack music

Seefeel's Quique worked really nicely. I think basically any early 90's ambient album is going to do v v well here.

Bish Bosch

*fart* *faaaaarrrrrrttt*

for like, tantric extra-long sessions something absorptive and meditative would be cool, like cosmic tones for mental therapy.

Incantation's Onward to Golgotha

but in all seriousness, i'm far too self-effacing to begin to put my thoughts down on paper about this.

for some reason i'm thinking that the brandenburg concertos would be pretty sweet. very regal and dignified, like all good sex.

my sex life is awful

I used to put on Miguel's Coffee in the Morning the next morning. I stopped, though, as my ex noticed the song popped up on a notification from Spotify on my facebook-page...

music is always too distracting.
although one particularly good night was spent in bed while the rap show on 1xtra was on.

'Yakkety Sax' almost exclusively.

you are benny hill and i claim my, er, five pounds

on second thought keep your poundings to yourself

I don't understand "I gotta listen to this amazing album before putting the moves on my lover."

You're fine with the Prince variant of "I gotta record this amazing album before" etc., though.

"I need a beat to guide me, otherwise I'm lost"

my sex-beat in full

https://media.giphy.com/media/SUeUCn53naadO/giphy.gif

Once, quite coincidentally, I had some Mozart playing - forget what - and his movement's ending corresponded with ours. Whump! Whump! Whuuuuuuuuuump! At the time it was comical, and we both laughed. I don't think I've eve had music on since then.

Best ever, in my experience: Gnawa Music of Marrakesh (the world needs more acellerando trance music).

accelerando, even.

Even when I probably meant stringendo.

innuendo

very regal and dignified, like all good sex.

how rude

None. Always best to make your own music.

literally...you should be laying down some sick beats with the MPC on your nightstand mid coitus

philip jeck - vinyl coda IV

This is a silly thread of course, very ilx circa 2002. The music - if at all - should suit both people entering the sexual arrangement iirc. It cannot be one person (ie. the ilx poster) putting on something that might be off-putting for the other person.

Havind said that, I've enjoyed great sexual synchronicity with both Natacha Atlas' 'Foretold in the Language of Dreams' and Cocteau Twins' 'Blue Bell Knoll'.

But it only works with one unique person, is what I'm trying to say.

thatd be one hot romp

the bizzaro g clip : suspect i love it way too much than i should.

Tom T Hall--Sneaky Snake on repeat. Two plays straight through and I'm done.

Really? Country? Actually that's a great idea. To listen to music that turns the man off so that he lasts longer. What about Stockhausens Gesang der Jünglinge?

waka/jawaka

Lindstrom and Christabelle - Real Life is No Cool

the years & years record was in heavy rotation during summer/fall '15

Allman Brothers, "Mountain Jam"---based on the Donovan song---good with shrooms Koolaid, no need for anything fancy.

i had great sex to Lupe Fiasco once

I mean his music not him personally

Mogwai - COME ON DIE YOUNG
Erik Satie, played slowly by Reinbert de Lleuw
Rowe & Tilbury - Duos for Doris
John Fahey - America
Aphex - Drukqs

great results.

I made a playlist for a friend recently https://open.spotify.com/user/skivepis/playlist/3q1EkadaPRJJC1ymVmHO4o

"Sneaky Snake" gots to be the funniest notion i've heard in weeks.

anal cunt

When I was a virgin, I thought Cocteau Twins would be the best ever sex music.

Reality: it was distracting.

any conscious or deliberate choice feels contrived and distracting.. a couple of years ago, i thought this (album, Codiaeum Variegatum) might be nice, for background ambiance or something: https://youtu.be/2QI2PtSgf8c

In lost my virginity to a Metallica bootleg album. I brought the poor lady back to my place with the promise of checking out some bootlegs and she got bonus bad sex.

The best musical interlude in that respect was when I was hanging out with a stripper and I played her US3. She started dancing to the single and next thing you know, I was experiencing something out of Penthouse Forum.

Needless to say, I have a very soft spot for that album.

US Maple - Dumb In The Wings
Rush - Cygnus X-1 Book II - Hemispheres

I used to put on New Romantic stuff for sex because sex to me is twilight with random flowing fabrics and horses trotting in the background.

now I'm wondering what song NYCNative sealed the deal to re: Metallica.

"Hit the Lights"?

Flip side of the Dead Can Dance love up thread: once had a threesome dissolve into hysterical laughter when Saltarello came on unexpectedly.

Seriously, Rowland S Howard's Teenage Snuff Film and also the record he did with Lydia Lunch. Also HTRK - Marry Me Tonight. Clearly RSH gets me going.
