Lately Janet's CONTROL has been my fix. Usually something upbeat, I guess, though not necessarily - and not necessarily pop-driven.

always something electric and dancey, most times a mix. I listened to todd terje's 'ironkuru' last night, had to TEAR myself from the last 10 minutes of it to meet my friends.

i'm a homebody so I consciously give myself a kick in the ass to make it out the door. metal would work too probably but i hardly have any.

word i was thinking of heavy stuff that could work as well, but i don't have any either. um, yeah.

Playing music to psyche myself up for going out wouldn't work, as I'd quickly remember that spinning records and getting drunk at home >>>>> hanging out in some smokey bar.

It depends on where I'm going/what I plan to do. I tend to use the music to set my swagger for the evening. Something jazzy that makes me nod my head is good when I need to feel sophisticated, early 90s rap or hard bop shit work well for that.

xpost actually i'd probably still be smoking if not for the smoking bans(a great disincentive for "social smokers"), but I do miss the dirty air when i drink.

recently, i've been listening to a lot more pop before i leave the house, and then techno from 'the shuffle' in the car. works nicely.

I don't really "go out" (assuming you mean going out to clubs). But if I did, Pink's "Get the Party Started," probably.

welll not necessarily clubs, just like bars and places where ur friends meet up, even their houses. just anytime u go out at night to have fun :-)

"Paranoia" and "Eclipse" by Apoptygma Bezerk, and "Join in the Chant" by Nitzer Ebb. I like to get my gothdance booty on around the living room.

I used to - as a ritual influenced by moderate-severe OCD - listen to perfect kiss by New Order before I left on any trip.
But trips aren't just out. I used to also always listen to I Look into MId Air by rex The Dog for it's high hype-up value.

I used to crank Justified lots before a big night on the tune. My inner indie-boy has taken over though since then, so I just put on some Electrelane or Kate Bush or whatever.
