I need to log-in to teamliquid from time to time as to not forget my password so while I'm here i am thinking, why not make a girl blog. But then I remembered that girl blogs are dumb so I've decided to try to fuse what's not dumb about it with a context related element, music. So.. right off the bat, do you have a playlist that would go well with ah' , you know, making out with a girl?
Finding good tunes to set the mood doesn't sound too challenging, does it? But then I scammed through my collection and came to realize how horribly, weirdly cockblockish it would be, being in the middle of something while this and that track came on.
I think Pablo Francisco said it best
But seriously, obviously unfitting songs aside, even mellow ones or the ones with female vocals or not even rolling stones kind of stuff seems viable for consideration when you think of it. Rock .. out of the question, at least in my opinion the slow ones are too cheesy and the fast ones and emo and goth forget it. I guess it depends a lot on personal music preference but I'm arguing that there is universal mood-setting music out there and here is my short and humble selection.
01. Telepopmusic - Breathe 02. Thunderball - Solar 03. Thievery Corporation - Shadows of Ourselves 04. Winterpark - Never Alone 05. Kate Rogers - Fine 06. Bonobo feat. Andreya Triana - Stay The Same 07. Chiara Chivello - Skylark 08. Yonderboi - Even If You Are Victorious 09. GTA2 Soundtrack - The Diner
Some of the more subtle criteria I've taken in consideration are stuff like it shouldn't make you want to dance, which I think is important it shouldn't interfere with the act of lovemaking in any way. It should, some day when in a melancholic mood, serve as a frame for the happy memory, get what I'm saying? Sort of subconsciously carry the moment.
Time to tell me your suggestions and I'll most likely tell you why i wouldn't consider adding them to my list. Don't troll.
THere are a few songs ere that just don't work. Or I'd not consider them working. I don't know. Subjective. Edit : That Gunther song is terrible and funny.

Thievery Corporations - Shadows of Ourselves has some trumpet action going on, but If i'd had to remove one song from the list it would be this one.
@A_Bandersnatch: Oceansize seems too unpredictable to me. What do you do when the guitars suddenly burst in volume, you stick it to her harder? Doesn't seem to gentleman to me, just saying. But I guess there are chicks who dig that. As for Puscifer, from what I've heard they have some serious lyrics, which doesn't go well with what I've said earlier.. kind of takes the piss out of making love when some dude is talking about taking life's games with your pride like a man. I want to give like a man not take like a man. And the deep masculine voice i picture would be annoying at some point.
@ GTR I'd definitely go with that while on a holiday in Tahiti or Bora Bora.. but it would make my behind swing ludicrously to the changes in beat, which disqualifies it in my eyes. Don't want the music to tell me how I should move, I'm eccentric like that.

No sir, take for example Bonobo feat. Andreya Triana - Eyesdown .. from the same album as the one I mentioned. I just couldn't .. it's so psy-phi funky laser sounds and hoOoho moaning and the beat seems dark, like coming down from heroin or something. Indeed downtempo electro, , with optional female vocals and jazzy overtones comes closer to what I'm considering viable, but every time I find something to bitch about when I picture making love while listening to most of these artists. It's either the lack of that special something being occluded by annoying drums, synths and whatnot or the overabundance which makes it cheesy.
Telepops amazing but I just can't see Breathe finding it's way into my playlist though. Maybe it's just become part of driving music to me so I can't understand it.
