What Do You Listen to While Writing Erotica?

[DreamCloud]

Lately, Dido. I've always been about 10 years behind the curve.

This is a great band I write to and the song title is appropriate when I'm writing some of my nastier stories.

I keep a playlist on YouTube with certain songs that keep me focused on writing. Mainly Beyonce, Paula Cole, Pharrell, Gwen Stefani, Toni Braxton.

Anything with sexy lyrics and a throbbing, heavy beat works for me

 

[TxRad]

The voices in my head.

That's pretty much it.

I think this is one of the sexist riffs in hard rock. Great song to....write to...uh...sure..

Yeah, who am I kidding, one of the best songs to fuck to ever.

Good beat, but Ted gives me the creeps.

Good beat, but Ted gives me the creeps.

Yeah I don't picture him during the song

Here's another good grinding beat to uh....you know. Of course Danzig is creepy too, but its the music.

The beating of my heart.

 

[J_R_Ashunwhy]

while writing, I tend to zone out what's around me, so if I do listen to music, then I'll go with something instrumental: Mussorgsky, Tchaikovsky, or Apocalyptica, for example. If I'm stuck, need a break, or need a full mental reset, then the music selection will change depending on my mood to either some hair metal, tanz-metal, industrial, or aggrotech.

 

[SamScribble]

Nothing with words. Too much competition.

Usually jazz. Lately Wolfgang Haffner; Miles Davis from the Kind of Blue era; Avishai Cohen; Keith Jarrett; David Benoit; Jan Gabarek; et al. And, occasionally, bouts of chamber music.

 

[masterandmargarita]

I'm hugely into metal, but I definitley don't write erotica to it. Instead, I opt for female vocals+electronic which really does a great job inspiring the mood. Ladytron, Goldfrap, Portishead to name a few.

 

[LadyVer]

Nick Drake.

 

[MSTarot]

Five-hour epic music mixes on YouTube. No words, just music.


Adrian von Ziegler does some good ones.

Pandora Journey does some nice six hour mixes

ThePrimeCronus are good for action and sex scenes. Rousing, bombastic, energetic.

I'm with you. My words can't stand the competition. Hee hee.

And thanks for the recommends...

It doesn't matter what music I have on when I write because I don't pay attention to it anyway.
However, what I play other times includes jazz, blues, oldies, old time country, and rock.

The lyric aint Damn skippy babe Its DANCE WITH ME BABY


You make me feel like a sticky pistil
Leaning into her stamen.
You make me feel like Mr. Sunshine himself.
You make me feel like splendor in the grass where we're rolling
Damn skippy babe

You make me feel like the Amazon's running between my thighs.
You make me feel love. . .
You make me feel like a candy apple red and horny
You make me feel like I want to be a dumb blonde
In a centerfold, the girl next door.
And I would open the door and I'd be all wet
With my tits soaking through this tiny little t-shirt that I'd be wearing
And you would open the door and tie me up to the bed.
You make me feel love. . .
Lover, I don't know who I am.
Am I Barry White - am I Isis?
Lover I'm laced with your unconscious,
I will be your Desdemona
(take your time)
You make me feel, ohhh
You make me feel, ahhh
You make me feel, oh, oh, ah, ah, oh, oh.

There's no need for music when I start typing.

However, I do enjoy the low buzz on the television on mute.
