One of my most memorable sex was savoured to the sound of the Bolero of Ravel!!!! I don't know if its only me but it was perfect!

Also The Division Bell album from Pink Floyd is for me very stimulating.

Changes to the Sound Sex Project

Hello

Up until now, the Sound Sex Project has only featured content involving a person's song choice, the song's artist, and any thoughts the participant was willing to share. While this has offered up a whole wealth of information about the links between sound, music, and sexuality, this methodology has been somewhat limiting.

After much discussion with my thesis advisor, and after receiving great feedback about the project at the conference for the International Association for the Study of Popular Music at Brock University, I have decided that it is finally time to change up how this blog will function.

First of all, when I began this project, I listed only one song per participant, even if they had more music to share. Therefore, I will post all extra songs.

Second of all, some participants have brought up the fact that they do not wish to divulge a particular song title, as that would put an end to their anonimity. Likewise, some people have written about soundtracks that are not necessarily in traditional song format. From now on, all types of stories or thoughts on sound and sexuality are welcome.

So, if you have already submitted something to the Sound Sex Project, please feel free to send in more stories/songs/sounds. If you have yet to participate in the project, new entires are always welcome. And please share the blog/spread the word whenever you can.

Thanks as always,
Mark Ambrose Harris

I have been involved with amusician for the last few months and what is striking is that unlike earlier situations, we never use music during sex (although I listen to his music sometimes when having fun alone). Instead, when together, we are both much more vocal than I have experienced before. This reminds me of how, with porn soundtracks, it is often the live vocalizations (not looped but synched) that turn me on the most, and their musicality in that context, the melodies, timbres & rhythms of moaning. A different kind of extended vocal practice.

Star Trek: The Next Generation

I'm not sure this will help since it's not technically a song, but this is one of my strongest sex memories. I once had sex while watching Star Trek: The Next Generation. It was very bad sex and ended in tears. Though I still love Star Trek, that particular eppisode always brings back bad memories.
