Throwing on something soft after inviting someone into the bedroom or playing an anonymous techno playlist, we all have music we turn to when we're in the mood.
It is very important to choose the right path. It's no time to rely on Spotify to shuffle your favorite songs and save the guilt that no one wants to know about showing up on the go.
You always random Chas and Dave's "bunny" comments not only killed the mood, but buried it forever.
But why are sex and music so intrinsically linked?
And before you go any further, no, it's not because of ASMR, a pleasant tingling sensation can start in the head and travel up the back of the neck and spine if you hear a certain stimulating sound.
According to ASMR University, "the main triggers/activators of ASMR are things like soft whispers, whispers, and light touch," but not everyone responds to them.
However, ASMR and music are very different, and while the sound of someone banging on a pickle jar can make your brain feel nice and fuzzy, it's less likely to make you suddenly have sex.
Likewise, a song that pops on and makes you think about sex might get you a little hot and bothered, but it won't scratch that ASMR itch.
Some songs and sounds wake up your body and mind for no good reason (for you it might be Marvin Gaye playing, for someone else, I mean, it might be there. Listening to Naughty Girl). By Beyonce) Turns out there are several reasons why music can increase your libido.
As a neuroscientist and renowned researcher of science, Alice Gray; “Rhythm and time are created in our bodies by physiological processes such as the heartbeat. Music has a complex relationship with many brain functions such as memory and emotion."
For example, listening to a song can transport you to a certain time (perhaps a certain sexual time). Music is a powerful reminder of past experiences, good or bad. You might not want to think about the guy who tried to play nickelback in a weird attempt to woo you, but hearing "I never did it like a wise guy..." is enough to send you suddenly back on that plane.
Similarly, listening to Rihanna's S&M songs takes you into the new week and you can meet someone on the dance floor at 3am.
Lyrics can also play an important role in why music turns you on. Sneaky, people singing about sex will probably make you think of sex, bonus points if the song has whispers or screams. Donna Summer's Love takes a step closer to loving you, baby, because Summer can be heard enjoying 22 orgasms during the release, according to Time magazine.
Listening to music is also a social activity and according to Alice, "musical melody, rhythm and rhythm activates the part of the brain involved in social emotions, so music supports behavior and activities around social activities".
He added, "Background music makes us want to communicate more, a comfortable environment for flirting."
So playing music when you're with someone makes them talk more, which is a win in our book (just to practice our flirting skills now).
Alice also says that music can stimulate our brains to what we're listening to, releasing feel-good chemicals that flood our bodies during sex.
She is explaining. "Music is closely related to our brain's emotional responses. Music activates our brain's reward pathways, causing the release of pleasure chemicals.
"These brain pathways are healthy pathways that are activated when we eat tasty foods, engage in social activities, and have sex.
"Because sex and music activate our reward pathways in our brains and trigger the release of feel-good chemicals like dopamine, music can make us 'happy' when we do the same brain activity."
The key? It has to be a song you like to turn on that hormone, so when it comes to turning on music, a lot comes down to personal preference.
However, after reading this, we think you'll be hard-pressed to find someone who doesn't have Donna Summer on their playlist.
