Sex Music

This new Of Montreal album would work if you're looking for gangbang and/or S&M music.


Dude's officially gone completely off the deep end and has put his insanity and sexual depravity on display for everyone to hear.

although generally, i don't want lyrics. i like the music to suggest a mood, not dictate it via words or otherwise distract us. i'll often reach for some electronic downtempo/chillout. classical & flamenco guitar also works.

only exception to my no-lyrics rule: barry white. i believe that also qualifies as trying-to-get-in-her-pants music (higher batting average than jeff buckley, tho :p )

yeah man I know what you mean. On dates I'll throw on some Air, even a bit of Portishead once in a while. End it with some ambient stuff like Ulrich Schnauss… always makes for a good time.

You always throw in that special mix you have already made long ago for just such occasions.
Or throw in some some Jandek. I also agree with Darklands.

I tell ya, this is one way technology has improved things. Back in the day, you'd be 20 minutes into things, a girl's legs over your shoulders and just getting into a rhythmic groove, and then you'd have to stop and go to the record player and turn the record over. Or even worse, gingerly lift the record up by the edges and put it back in its sleeve and select another one.

If the time is right, and you really want to make the night special, there is no substitute.

So what frat are you in bro?


Sorry couldn't help myself.

NIN is incredibly bro-ish, but I am the farthest thing from that. Sorry my musical knowledge hasn't had the incredible amounts of decades yours has had to expand to point of obnoxious up turned nose status.

err, hello?? C120 cassette tapes with auto reverse!!???

I remember flipping the record over during my very first roll in the hay…."Walk Among Us" by The Misfits. Ahh, the romance.

Evidently, "It's not unusual" for her knickers come flying off when this bloke sings.

This is most assuredly for fucking not making love. Besides, who makes love anymore besides the Huxtables?

I'm still waiting for diagrams…

New Wet Kojak - first album

Miles Davis

Worst sex music I ever selected was Miles Davis - Sketches of Spain. My wife demanded it be turned off before she would continue after about 20 minutes. Nefertitti worked well, though. I think I might have had Bitches Brew as a soundtrack before as well.

My selections are kind of dated as sex with music sort of died once a kid came along.

Things I remember working well:

Portishead - Dummy
Roxy Music - Avalon (duh)
REM - Up
Peter Gabriel - Us, also Passion
Smashing Pumpkins - Gish
Radiohead - The Bends
John Coltrane - A Love Supreme
Morphine - Cure for Pain (something I guess thatguy and I have in common)
Flaming Lips - Yoshimi Battles the Pink Robots
Richard and Linda Thompson - Pour Down Like Silver

Sex music is one of those things that's hard to sometimes define. What's sexy to one person might not be sexy to another. So basically, I'm listing my favorites and either people will get it or not.

First of all, I noticed somebody already listed Mezzanine by Massive Attack, which was genius! I'll also recommend their albums Protection and Blue Lines. First time I ever had a guy over, Protection was the first album I put on and he was impressed. Honestly, any good trip hop is good for sex (Portishead, the first Esthero album, Tricky, ect…)

Okay moving onto my next favorite which is Depeche Mode. I'll be honest, they have four albums that are pretty good, dark and sexy… Black Celebration, Violator, Songs of Faith and Devotion, and Ultra. It just all depends on what sort of mood you're going for. Ultra is chilled, Violator is darkly delicious, SOFAD is rocking with a kinky twist (listen to In Your Room and you'll understand), and Black Celebration is just quiet, dark and moody (besides who can resist "Stripped").

Now I noticed some chatter about Nine Inch Nails. While yes "Closer" seems like an obviously give away, I think they have sexier songs. Their cover of Adam Ants' "Physical" and Queen's "Get Down, Make Love" are both pretty hot. I also love certain songs from Year Zero, The Slip, The Fragile, With Teeth and Pretty Hate Machine. So I suppose if you're going to play them, don't settle for just one album. You probably want to make a mix.

I also noticed somebody mentioned JAMC's The Darklands. That was pretty awesome. I would even say Psychocandy would be a good one. Along the same lines as JAMC, I would totally include The Cure's Disintegration on this list. The album has some pretty choice moments. Dark, atmospheric and rather eerie. Another album that comes to mind from a similar era is My Bloody Valentine's Loveless. My friend says it's a good one. But I haven't tried it yet.

As for other albums/artists… Interpol's Turn on the Bright Lights has some choice moments. I would even dare to suggest The Smiths Singles Collection or U2's Achtung Baby. And then you have typical fare such as Prince and Sade. I also think Leonard Cohen has some pretty sensual moments too.

Oh last one I thought of was The Last Temptation of Christ soundtrack. I'm surprised that nobody has mentioned this one yet. When I was in high school, a friend of mine told me that he swore by it. Sure it may be "world music" but it has some pretty cool power to it.

Reading this thread makes me see why my wife says (if she were in he market for it) she'd never have sex with anyone under 35.

I think we're both on the same level as Samantha's first paragraph.

It's always disturbing to be in semi-agreement with Rhett, so I'll say the music doesn't matter *that* much, but at the same time it does matter, because during a time of heightened senses if you've got good music on, you're going to enjoy the music much more, too, even if you think you're not listening to it. I always associate certain songs with certain experiences many years later, even if it was just the latest crap on MTV, which we put on loud so the neighbors wouldn't hear.

Jeff Beck, "Blow by Blow."

And not (just) because of the title.

I'm glad someone agrees with me…I'm surprised people find music so important on these occasions.

I'm well under 35, by the way.

I doubt many people have responded think it is that important, I certainly never did. At the same time, being music fans it is only natural that the activities have mixed and it is natural to remember the times the results were good. As someone else mentioned, there is music that now has some of those memories attached to it.

As I said the two don't mix any more for me now that there is a kid in the house and it's not something I ever think about.
