Like I said, it depends on the mood. Plump DJs is hardly romantic. It's for those time when you would describe it as fucking, not making love (though still with someone you're in love with, of course .

There's some other techno remixes that are pretty sexy.

not the mix I would use, but here's a decent example (probably worth stopping at 3:30, especially if you're at work!):


Roger Sanchez's remix of "Hella Good" is another (I actually didn't hear the original of this tune until fairly recently, and it is not nearly as good).


Of course, with electronica, you'll generally have to mix the songs, not just copy them together.

And, don't forget things like Ravel's Bolero, Clair du Lune, and all those other sexy/romantic classical pieces.

Really, the list of music that is bad for intimacy is probably much shorter. What music works really depends on who you're with and the mood. Even stuff like The Grateful Dead, or Benny Goodman, or NIN would work with the right partner.

Excellent Feghoot to the movie!
promote


thx! what's a feghoot?

oh, cool!

it's my other favorite oldie, set in motion by a coke bottle.

bolero was written to the rhythm of a windmill turning nearby.
written on his piano, so i assume he couldn't help but write it to that rhythm if the sound of it was penetrating the walls of the room where his piano was...

yeah. i remember my dad telling me that Ravel had widely admitted that it was a rush job, and not his most imaginative work.
but hey. it's catchy.

bless Blake Edwards' gin-soaked old heart.

Bolero is all about sex.

heh. they used Ravel's Bolero for the background.
that's what the orchestra's playing, from 2:42 til the end.

This section of Pouledouris' score always reminded me of Ravel's Bolero.

It's not Bolero, it's Aragonaise from Bizet's Carmen.

Do you know what Bo Derek likes to do to the song "Bolero" ?

That was Ravel's Bolero, no? Nice choice.
