Giorgio Moroder

AskMen.com, who apparently think that they are authorities on these things, have recommendations for Music That Enhances Sex.

They include these recommendations for Electronic Music For Sex:

Electronica
If you like to chill out and go through various speeds and tempos while doing the deed, then this music will serve to give you and your girl exactly what you’re looking for. This music, along with a good bottle of wine, can turn your session into something hypnotic.

Suggestions:
Cafe Del Mar Volumen Once
Paris Under A Groove – Stylistique Vol. 1

Dance
Considering you’re doing your own horizontal dance, listening to some soft, original dance music will serve to make her sway her hips more so on your penis. Personally, I think this is the best kind of music to have sex to.

Suggestions:
Beautiful Tomorrow – Blue Six
Nude Tempo 1 – Muguel Migs
Penetrate Deeper (Reis) – Deep Dish
Addictive Beats – Saeed & Palash

Never mind the horrifically bad commentary – Sex advice FAIL!

Perhaps Donna Summer & Giorgio Moroder’s I Feel Love?  Klaus Schulze’s Body Love soundtrack? Art Of Noise’s Moments In Love?

I don’t claim any special expertise in this area – but I expect that Synthtopia readers can do a lot better than AskMen’s cheesy advice.

Got a recommendation? Leave a comment below!

Giorgio Moroder has a special place in the history of electronic music, because of his genre-inspiring classic track I Feel Love, with Donna Summer and Pete Bellotte.

When Brian Eno first heard I Feel Love, he told David Bowie “This single is going to change the sound of club music for the next fifteen years,” which it did. The track has been covered by dozens of artists and imitated, either directly or indirectly, by thousands.

Moroder’s version of the original Battlestar Galactica soundtrack, on the other hand, has been lost to obscurity.

Until now: Read more…

mik300z makes a triumphant return to the Synthtopia Sunday Synth Jam with a Giorgio Moroder inspired electronic disco improv:

Based on “here to eternity”. This was all going swell until the ESQ1 drifted out of pitch near the end (not my bum notes for a change lol) Some Human league influence here too:)

It’s hard to overestimate the influence Moroder has had on electronic dance music, isn’t it?

The Chase, club version, from Midnight Express.

I made this track on a 22 year old 8 track sequencer, 4 synths and recorded directly onto a cd. No software used.Instruments/equipment used: (all Hardware) Ensoniq ESQ 1-Midi controller, sequencer (8 tracks )JUNO G- strings and drums JUNO 106-bassline (run through zoom effects unit for delay) JUNO 6 – melody Microkorg – melody

This is a synth jam on the Giorgio Moroder/Donna Summer disco classic I Feel Love.

It’s a nice demo of what the Pro-One can do – but it also highlights how different the filter on the Pro-One sounds compared to the Moog synthesizer of the original.

I feel love……with this synth.

Sequential Circuits Pro-One Analog Synthesizer with different settings (OSC-Sync, PWM, VCF, Envelope…); internal sequencer is triggered by the Roland TR-808: drums: Roland TR-808

For me one of the best monophonic analog synths ever.
