Aural Wes

Weekly Track Roundup

It’s that kind of evening. We issue no apology to the parents reading this. Happy Valentine’s Day.

myspacemark - “awakening”

shawty wanna fuck i told her no
-Cassandra Weigle

SOPHIE - “Ponyboy”

It’s quite possibly the horniest SOPHIE song out of many horny SOPHIE songs. I just love the dominatrix persona she adopts within the song, and that, combined with the crushing bass, just makes for a fun song. A bit scary the first time you hear it, but then you read the lyrics and it starts fucking.
-Philip Keith

Tyler, The Creator - “She” (ft. Frank Ocean)

LISTEN. I know the subject matter is WILD. But this song always ALWAYS sets the mood. I promise it is NOT the words.
-Emmett Favreau

Run the Jewels - “Love Again (Akinyele Back)” [ft. Gangsta Boo]

First things first rest in peace Gangsta Boo. For real. This is the raunchiest I’ve ever heard Memphis legend Gangsta Boo on a verse, and Killer Mike and El-P’s production come together to make an amazing very sensual track.
-Lily Lazar

Nine Inch Nails - “Closer”

This song is pretty self-explanatory, the overt sexual content of the lyrics and industrial instrumentation perfectly encapsulates the 90s lustfull angst that this band became known for.
-Terry Brannigan

Alina Baraz & Galimatias - “Show Me”

This song is like having sex in the clouds--a smoky haze enveloping your body as the soft sounds of condensation spill like rain. Rhythmically--your body pulsates in waves of calm delight. You give yourself over to the pleasure and the pleasure gives itself back to you.
-Alexandra Taylor

Maren Morris - “Make Out With Me”

The title says it all...
... but I actually find this song to be a bit of an oxymoron because it's melodically sentimental but lyrically... oral.
-Maisie Wrubel
