Pavement.

Seriously, put on songs from Brighten The Corners or Terror Twilight. Bonus if she's never heard Pavement before, because it's not like anybody can understand what Malkmus is saying at first listen anyway.

I also cannot believe nobody's mentioned Sigur Ros.

Well, sure, you could play Sigur Ros, but most of the people I know would fall asleep listening to them in the middle of things.  It is really freaking gorgeous and soothing, though.  I'd definitely put it on.

Eh, depending how much stamina you've got, all you're gonna need is "Glosoli" and "Hoppipolla" and then you're done and you can both go to sleep. Those two songs are upbeat and uplifting enough.

MORPHINE

they fit the qualifiers for the slow, sensual love-making; as well as the faster, more raucous fucking.

plus, Mark, the singer's voice makes chicks get naked.

I'll second DFA1979 and Marvin Gaye.  Post rock seems like it would be nice, as long as the girl or guy you're playing it for isn't so self conscious (and really, is there a worse time to be self conscious?) that they'd feel silly listening to "NightendDay" or "Providence" while getting their bone on.

Sly and the Family Stone.

Also, Pig Destroyer.  Grind Core Coitus.

Charles Mingus.

Now that I've single-handedly covered jazz, let's talk about how John Mayer should never be played for any reason ever, and especially for anything intimate.

John Mayer contains half the genetic code for creating the anti-christ.

i won't say who has the other half but let's just say i hope him and Jack Johnson never find a way to procreate with each other.

Nick Cave.  Okay maybe not for actually gettin' it on music, but there's an incredible raw sexuality to his voice that's just great/scary. 

Sex to Grinderman would be... interesting.

i would do it to e.s.t.!  i bet kind of blue would be pretty amazing, too. 

and yeah; i would probably do it to gybe!

also, i don't know if anyone knows the michael franks album "the art of tea," but it's totally sexy 70s soul/jazz.  in fact, i think the next time that girl visits, i'mma have to put that record on...
(is the fact that it's on vinyl sexy at all?  probably not the part about having to flip it over halfway through...)

Heh heh.  On the subject of songs with "Pussy" in the title, I've made out to Pussy by the Brazilian Girls many a time.  It's just happy fun music that makes people want to get all frisky and such.

But other more conventional fare would have to be:
Herbert - Scale
DePhazz - Death by Chocolate (recommended in the trip hop thread)
Pretty much anything by Nina Simone although some people might find that a little corny
Metric has already probably been mentioned, but I'll mention it again for emphasis
Also In the Bedroom After the War by Stars
Actually what the hell pretty much anyone who has at one time worked with Kevin Drew

Just so y'all know, the "let me put some music on and make you a drink" move is considered retrograde by many modern ladies (and has therefore become the move of choice among retro minded ladies who go to jazz clubs and wear hats).  Modern romances tend be conducted with snoggings on landings, or so I'm told.

. . .

My new band will be called Snoggings on Landings.

I've done it to Nick Cave. The Abattoir/Lyre album is good for that sort of thing.

Sex to Grinderman would be pretty hilarious, although I feel that it's kind of against the spirit of the album, because while it drips sex, its key song is about getting no pussy...

They named it "Brazilian Groove" because "Putumayo Presents: Sexy Fucking Music" wasn't a friendly enough title for Yellowstone tourist shops. Seriously, this CD is worth nine orgasms... :mrgreen:

Sex to Opeth's "Closure" is fun as well. Kind of an Arabian magic carpet ride, but the Arabian is indeed a woman and the carpet is a lot furrier than you think.

Lyre does seem like it would be good mood music, but Abattoir seems like it would be way too gospel.  Fantastic song, but if "There She Goes, My Beautiful World" came on in the middle of sex I think it would lead to game-ending laughter.

On the off-chance that I'm not missing a clever reference (I haven't seen any of the Zatoichi movies, or whatever they are), my avatar picture is actually from A Touch of Zen, an old Hong Kong action movie.

That being said, if you're looking for some cool atmospheric sex, traditional Chinese music...takes some getting used to, but could work well.

Myself, I would never get it on to Air, it's just that people always seem to bring it up when you touch on this subject.

I basically think that all music is kind of awkward in the background, as soon as you start listening to it. It needs to be something that you can really just ignore.
