Sex Music

What's the worst thing you've shagged to? What's the best? (can be best/worst as records or best/worst as background noise for sex, could be best/worst experiences had whilst music played).

sorry if this has been done to death, if it has, someone delete it.

So this isn't a thread about the early Antz?
Was it still called Sex Music after they went off to be Bow Wow Wow and Adam went glam?

Bows, Luke Sutherland's band immediately after Long Fin Killie, made two albums which are both wonderful to shag to, frankly. Vaguely shoegazey / trip-hoppy, very sensual boy&girl vocal duets, lots of slow builds and releases.

Wife very much likes Jimi Hendrix.

just realised that this thread is just going to make me think of ILXord individual sex-styles LOCK IT IMMEDIATELY LOCK THIS

Why is it I like fast builds and fast releases...I'm I doing something wrong?....

xp if we work hard enough we can reach a stage where you can't listen to anything without thinking of specific ilxors having sex to it...

worst: the postal service

suprisingly worst: Al Green and Marvin Gaye -- I feel so self-conscious when I have sex to classic "sexy" music that I can't get into it. Best is usually electronic with no vocals.

I don't usually listen to a lot of music during sex. If I do, for the most part it's accidental.

First time was to Skid Row
At what age did you lose your virginity?

Worst was probably this time I tried to set up a Lindstrom-based playlist in Pandora. It started off well, but drifted into this horrible, boring, loungy boutiquey idm. My partner was like, "can we turn off the elevator music?" We put on some trance station, which despite not really being what I listen to in real life, was really good to have sex to.

not really being what I listen to in real life

life is what you make of it

horrible, boring, loungy boutiquey idm

this really is the worst for sex!

MBV pretty good iirc

best: D'Angelo - Voodoo
worst: looping music at the end of Barbershop 2 DVD, which after an excruciatingly long time, one of us finally went back to the other room to turn off

basically it needs to have atmosphere and get me out of my head. When it has really prominent, clear vocals where the words are really easy to understand I start thinking about the words.

Long mellow instrumentals of just about any kind, really.

my hot tip is never play alan lomax's recordings of italian sulphur miners which once resulted in someone getting dressed and leaving my house. sun city girls have tended to fare fairly badly too.

Sigur Ros is better to fuck to than listen to.

faint praise

However, lomaxes recordings of prisoners singing and driving railroad spikes could work very nicely

"Whoa Rosie! Whoa gal!"

ha ha! genius.

this whole album seems purpose-made for fuck tunes:

Not to harsh-buzz your hard-on there, but I can't imagine having sex to that at all. I saw "Thomas Fehlmann" and I was like "well, maybe he's changed his game up and is doing something new" but nope, it's pretty much how I remember him. All squelchy and farty.

so it sounds like actual sex?

how is that squelchy? it's all low-end!

at least it's not schaffel

wow, that sounds like horrible sex music to me. I would have chosen something more organic and contemplative.

like a field recording of wolves

or cage's music for amplified cactus

Do you normally have sex with Wire reviewers in the mid-90s?

sex to music is rather overrated imo

the best music to have sex to is a recording of the last time you had sex

Lol, DVDs kind of ruined making-out-and-forgetting-the-movie.

The activity in question must have involved some deft and rather vigorous multi-tasking in the era of vinyl singles.

that's the real reason record changers were so popular

bingo.

the work of art in the age of mechanical reproduction.

maybe everyone was already familiar with this, but I just found this blog of music from 80s porn films and it's great (in my opinion)

I thought there was a thread about porn music but I can't find it

when I say 'I just found', it's new to me is what I mean, it seems pretty popular
