post your favorite sex mix

[Dominic]

a good sex mix must be more than a bunch of vaguely sexy songs strung together haphazardly. They can be all of a genre or be surprisingly different - yet still mix and match as if originally made to play together.

They must not all be songs you just "happen to love." They should be songs chosen for her. Ones you feel will surprise her, excite her and make her feel sexy.

Like the act itself, a good sex mix must first set the mood and tease a little bit before getting into the heavy petting and foreplay. It must steadily rise towards a peak with sudden, delirious falls that take your breath away, leaving you begging for more. Finally, it must build to an inevitable and perfect climax that leaves the listener both satisfied, exhausted, and yet, willing to listen to the whole thing all over again.

rules:

no more than 15 songs - if you can last longer than 15 songs go give Sting lessons.

no "side one of Led Zep IV" - nothing wrong with this but be original.

most of the sex you are having is no longer in a dorm room.

you can name at least one Barry White song (it doesn't have to be in your mix, just name one!)

oh, and including "I Wanna Sex U Up" by Color Me Badd immediately disqualifies you to discuss anything sex related on these forums for the next two months.

*****************

There are all kinds of sex mixes...this is my "seduction" mix. Soft and sexy, with a side of aggression just underneath. Perfect for that first time together.

This is really an EDF thread? Well anyway, I don't have any songs in particular to suggest because I'm married and we generally don't have music playing. I understand the need to set a mood for those who are still single, but I'd be interested in hearing how many posters here who are married or in long-term stable relationships have music playing during. As you said, people in college/dorms need not respond to my question.

[Reef]

don't have a mix so to speak but Marvin Gaye, Shai, some Boyz II Men, and a little Usher are good

i'd suggest setting the mood is even more important for those of us who are married / in long term relationships

try playing some moood music and starting with a massage
with scented oils or something hoaky like that

i think you'll be pleasantly surprised

when you first bang someone, the novelty of the encounter heat thinggs up... but if you're in a relationship, sometimes it helps to go out of your way and do something like play mood music or whatever.. imo

/images/graemlins/tongue.gif

all kidding aside, I would certainly think setting the mood would be more important to long-time couples.

[suzzer99]

Nice to see some Massive Attack in there Dom. I don't really have a mix, since 3rd world bar girls usually aren't that particular. But scanning through my MP3s, if I did it would probably also have:

This Mortal Coil - Kangaroo (their second album - It'll End in Tears - is awesome in it's entirety the bedroom)
Orbital - Blue Illusion
Exile - I Want to Kiss You All Over
Mazzy Star - Fade Into You
Commodores - Easy
Britney Spears - Toxic (Armand Van Helden remix)
Postal Service - DC Sleeps Tonight
Daft Punk - Da Funk
Curtis Mayfield - Superfly

Beth Orton - Chinese Whisper
Death in Vegas - Dirt

Berlin - The Metro
Maria Muldar - Midnight at the Oasis
Sugababies - Hole in the Head
Darude - Sandstorm

[incognito]

There was an old playlist I had when I was at university that wasn't designed as a sex mix, but it ended up that way a couple of times. In a sort of Pavlovian way, it turned into one. I just went looking for it and can't find it anymore, but I remember the key points:

Elsewhere (Freedom Sessions version) -- Sarah McLachlan
A Case of You -- Joni Mitchell
Romeo and Juliet -- Dire Straits
Soul to Squeeze -- Red Hot Chili Peppers
Lead Me Upstairs -- David Gray
.
.
.
(bunch of stuff in here, more Massive Attack but don't remember what, and definitely Glory Box... seeing that in Dom's list is what reminded me)
.
.
.
Jesus Coming in For the Kill -- Life's Addiction
Teardrop -- Massive Attack
Roads -- Portishead

Note to aspiring mix-makers: I don't think I've met a female of any age who didn't like "A Case of You". It's a great song for setting the mood.

[suzzer99]

Romeo and Juliet, nice.

[El Diablo]

Dom,

"edited to add that if mods feel this is not an El D thread, please move it to OOT."

Verdict on that was gonna be based on your mix.

Dude, that is one sweet f'ing mix.

I'm not prepared to bring something that can stand anywhere close to that right now (I met a girl tonight that I'm hoping this will become significant for and for right now I'm just gonna go with your mix!), but I'm gonna try and come up with a next level response!

For any haters in this thread, if you're gonna criticize, bring a better mix than Dom's and I'll ban him or something.

[keikiwai]

my mood music changes all the time w/ no work on my part

it's called

The Big Sonic Chill

and it can be found on FM949 in San Diego late at night

however... now they have music on demand! so I just go to:

http://fm949sd.com/aod/aod.cfm

1st one on the list

the playlists (which have tons of bands i'm not usually exposed to) cna be found here (scroll down)

http://www.fm949sd.com/station/chill.cfm

(cheesy pun on their part is that they say, "music to put you in the mood; we supply Everything But the Girl (http://www.google.com/musica?aid=jga2fqaNzIO&sa=X&oi=music&ct=result)"

anyway, a separate thread could be made on FM949, they are pretty damn good, especially when compared to the trash that is music radio in general these days (they broadcast a Pearl Jam concert live, they have good interviews, they promot local bands, etc.)) <3 double parentheses

Anabolic Frolic - Happy 2B Hardcore Volume 3

Don't knock it till you've tried it /images/graemlins/wink.gif

[Rick Nebiolo]

Dom,

gf picked these out tonight from a much larger five star blues playlist on iTunes. not sure it's cheating to have one's gf do the list. Note there's no real crescendo or climax associated with this grouping but I'm in my fifties so it really doesn't matter.

Tonight's bada bing mix:

Love Is a Gamble by Duke Robillard
I'm Still in Love With You by Duke Robillard
Duke's Mood by Duke Robillard
Five String Blues by Roy Buchanan
Down by the River [live] by Roy Buchanan
Little Wing by Stevie Ray Vaughan
Slow Blues In 'C (live) by Alvin Lee/Ten Years After

Sexiest Barry White song: "I'm Gonna Love You Just a Little More, Baby"

~ Rick

[JaBlue]

Some kind of mix of Ratatat, Broken Social Scene, Wilco, and velvet underground. Depends what kind of sex we want to have, a lot of times there's no music. In the process of recovering music collection so hiphop/rap/electronic/jazz all not an option now /images/graemlins/frown.gif

or alternatively I'll just put on some Clap Your Hands Say Yeah!

[lippy]

1 lady
1 bed
5 scented candles
1 bottle of Astroglide
1 Lippy

Mix together with high heat for 20 minutes, sleep immediately afterward.

[HoosierAlum]

Just play Usher's "Confessions" on repeat at a moderate level.

[OrigamiSensei]

I've never been one to put mixes together, but a few albums have figured prominently in mood setting during my marriage:

Kate Bush, The Sensual World (Sentimental favorite because it was the "soundtrack" for our first time)
Joni Mitchell, Blue or For the Roses (If memory serves "A Case of You" is on Blue)
Steely Dan, Gaucho or Aja

I'm an old fogey, so you'll note the music is old school.

[Go_Blue88]

i don't listen to music when i have sex. that's all i really have to say about that.

[TripSearching]

Ben Harper's version of Sexual Healing needs to be on the mix imo.

[troymclur]

Slow and Easy by Joe Satriani. Anytime i play that, people always comment, without provocation, that it's the ultimate sex song.

[guids]

depends on the mood, I usually stick to one artist. if it is a middle of the day thing and cold out, usually throw on some marvin gaye, al green, old school stuff, if Im comming home drunk at 4 am, I stick to fast r kelly stuff, than his slow stuff. A nice spring afternoon, before I go out and she is getting ready I like to put on rat pack stuff, so we can dance a little first, than do it.

Dude, seriously, no. Unless you're sexing up a 15 year old wannabe raver girl on crack. Then, maybe. But probably still no.

[thatpfunk]

ive actually been curious about this recently. ive never gotten around to putting on music w/ my gf. do you stop things and say, "hold on, i need to put on some music?" do you guys plan sex ahead of time? how does an actual mix come into play?

sometimes music is obviously on, im just kinda confused as to how you get into this situation. does good music make things so much better that its worth stopping foreplay for a minute and turning on the cd player or ipod?

help me dom, help me.

[JaBlue]

pfunk, for me sometimes we'll be watching a movie or something. When I get up to turn off the movie, I turn on the music. Then when I get back we have sex.

[thatpfunk]

ja,
i just let the dvd menu play over and over and over.

LOL...if you're like most of us nowadays, you've got aniPod type device that already has various playlists of your music. When you guy's start getting intimate turn off the TV and just put one of your playlists on "shuffle." Obviously, I'm talking about an appropriate playlist and not something like "best of Death Metal."

[thatpfunk]

ill give it a try w/ your list. trip report to follow, perhaps.

don't forget to set the mood in other ways, okay? you know: candles, clean bedding/room, hygienically scrubbed down, etc.

plan/brag: shes a yoga instructor, ill use the mix during our private class and then transition.

how do things change if you are still in college?

[DLizzle]

Post deleted by [censored]

[D.L.M.]

if you are in college, you need some of the slow r&b from the late 90s. Im in college now, but when i was in high school id pop my mix cd in and nail girls in my backseat.

Sad thing is that id always bust in the middle of song #6 LOL at me. so the other 10 songs were rarely played. except for the one time a cop rolled up on me and some random broad, and ask us a shiload of questions before he figured out that the only dangerous thing about me was in my pants.

after he left us alone, The girl was such a good sport that she agreed we could drive somewhere else and finish the job, and we did.

it was a while ago but these songs work
all my life-kc jojo
like almost every [censored] usher song that was a hit
rather be with you- bootsie collins(its old school but the best by far)
everybreath you take- puffy

there were others but i cant remember them, bootsie is a must for any sex em mix.

[renodoc]

I think this is pretty cliche. I can't get through all the zep at my age now anyway, but there is a good reason the album is called "Physcial Graffiti"

I'm not sure I've ever heard of any of those songs.

I had a sweet one back in my college days that I made the mistake of letting a buddy at the time borrow it. It worked for him and he never gave it back.

I need some beat in my songs, not only to set an active mood, but then something you can move with the beat, if you know what I mean.

Here's something I came up with quick, in no particular order :

Silk - Freak Me
R Kelly - Feelin' On Your Booty
Jodeci - Freak 'N You
Rell - Are You Ready
112 - Anywhere
R Kelly - Your Body's Calling
504 Boyz - I Can Tell
Christion - Pimp This Love
Usher - Nice & Slow
R Kelly - Bump 'N Grind
LL Cool J - Doin' It
Juvenile - Slow Motion
Guniwine - Pony

One of the few albums in my collection from that era (Moondance was made in 1970) that still gets lots of play. I also recommend have Tupelo Honey and Astral Weeks.

GREAT album for sex....

[J.Brown]

here is a valentine's day mix that i gave to a bunch of my friends, it would def. work well in the bedroom.

i have to say it probably isn't better than Dom's mix though because i personally like to go the air, zero 7, thievery corporation, mushroom jazz/mark farina route (similar to his mix in most ways) but here is mine, a more "conventional version" of songs people with good taste should probably know....

within your reach- the replacements (from say anthing sdtrk)
sideways- citizen cope
northern sky- nick drake
fade into you- mazzy star
this years love- david gray
sonnet- the verve
i will follow you into the dark- death cab for cutie
between the bars- elliot smith
when the stars go blue- ryan adams
california stars- billy bragg and wilco
talk tonight- oasis
you on my mind in my sleep- richard ashcroft
cannonball- damien rice
lost without u- robin thicke

and i think my favorite barry white song is

playing your game baby

that is one smooth jam!!! /images/graemlins/blush.gif

cheers. J.

dammit I thought I would get to be the first to say Van Morrison. I would add that the Astral Weeks album and the first half of Magic Time are also excellent love making tuneskis.

edit: Lots of slow blues songs are great for sexing too. Something like Clapton's version of "stormy monday" just gets a nice slow groove going.

While the above does imply that you have had sex (with a girl), it also implies that you have not seen (or taken careful note of) Fast Times at Ridgemont High.

renodoc, "Rock You Like a Hurricane" is inspired. I was thinking Black Sabbath's "Iron Man" too, but it's almost impossible not to sing along. So good omission...

Anyway. I like live music on my sex mixes -- good to have an encouraging audience. Remember having one with Pete Townsend's version of "Save it For Later" off Deep End Live!.

And lastly. I don't think of it as a "quickie"-- just being efficient.

[El Diablo]

All,

OK, I sense the thread edging towards just plain retarded, so this should be good enough to provide soundtrack for your banging for the next few weeks or so. Once you run out of music, let me know and I'll open it back up.
