This doesn't belong in this forum, that's why I'm putting it here.

My neighbour above has been copulating day and night for about the past three weeks, being loud and obnoxious. Banging my fist against my door angrily has not solved this issue.

SO, my CD player is set to plot my revenge. I have Barbie Girl (mwa ha ha) on pause and when they next make loud noises (the man sounds like he's bloody broken his leg) it is going to play on repeat, LOUDLY.

Perhaps that alone will cure them of their need to let the neighbourhood know they're at it. Or maybe he really does have a broken leg.

Anyway, I'd like some more suggestions for anti-sex music, just in case. Or other advice to get them to shut the Hell up.

Oh yeh, and he keeps burping really loudly. Disgusting B*stard.

Oh dear !

You might start some major dispute with the plan for the loud music.

Have you contacted the landlord or environmental health. The problem is with sex noise is that while a noisy stereo can be taken away it is not so easy for the state to stop the sex noise.

I'm SO glad I'm not in your shoes. :( When I got my first apartment around this time in 2001, less than a year after my diagnoses, I had a filthy dirt bag neighbor who had just moved in and spent the whole day drinking and playing his music incredibly loud (the CD was skipping and everything) while I was unable to sleep at all, apparently because of some sob story he told me later about breaking up with his girlfriend or whatever male-bovine droppings that was no excuse for his behavior, and everything I tried to do made the situation even worse. When trying to politely ask him to turn his music down and explaining how I hadn't slept the night before solved nothing, I put my fists up in a threatening manner and he started screaming that if I did anything he'd have me arrested for assault. But that didn't stop him and his "sister" from verbally assaulting me through my window, screaming and cursing and laughing hysterically afterwards. The landlord did nothing, the police did nothing, my parents could in no way help me, I ended up suffering a complete breakdown and being taken to the hospital while the piece of human filth and his "sister" went "nya nya nya nayah NYAH" as they watched me leave. Worst of all it happened on 9/11 and all that added to everything else made put me through an endless nightmare for months. When something like that happens it's like there's no one at all to turn to. They blame you, everything is your fault, they think that asking them for peace and quiet especially in the evening is like asking for a kidney, and they are the biggest Karma Houdini ever. I hate the human race and the bad guys always win. And that's why you shouldn't try anything to get back at your neighbor because YOU, not THEY, will get in trouble. :x

Something from Austin Powers?
Surfin' Bird?

:lol:

On a more serious note, it sucks that this is happening, and it might be a good idea to try a different intervention...

I suppose it doesn?t count as music, but you can Google-search for ?Revenge CD? ?

Cannibal Corpse - Hammer smashed face (and everything else they make)
And how about old hardcore stuff like Thunderdome? Find stuff with ridiculously high beats per minute.

Record their next session, then play it back loudly after they finish. Repeat.

(But first, earbuds and something more pleasant for yourself.)

I've got a similar problem. I live below a randy young couple and I've heard them going at it at just about any time of day. At first, I thought it was amusing but it became rather irritating after a while. I mean, I was never like that when I was their age.

Since I can't do anything about their escapades, I decided to ignore it by wearing earplugs if they get too noisy. Nobody gets bent out of shape, they have their fun, and I have a degree of peace and quiet.

Try anything by Merzbow. That should annoy the neighbors.

Also, if you have a machine with an older install of Linux, find some large files on your hard drive, and cat them to /dev/audio. Or alternatively, do this with whole partitions instead. http://everything2.com/title/catting+we ... %252Faudio

I had this problem with upstairs neighbours a few years back. Thankfully I got a new job and moved away, but that's the reason I will never live in a downstairs flat again. I have to have the top flat now.

My way of coping with it was by wearing ear plugs and I slept right through.

A tricky one considering with activities like this music can be easily tuned out.
Perhaps something like West Side Stories I feel pretty?
Or the Nyan Cat?
If you want some entertainment yourself have a go at find the invisible cow, just turn the volume up real loud!
Good luck!

Something annoying like Barney songs, chicken dance song or Alvin and the chipmunks songs.

^ So you're talking to me again? :?

I can't bring myself to do it.

The man sounds so fake. His sighs don't even need to happen. He's louder than the woman.

Is there any way of telling them that I can hear them, without it being too much? I mean, I would've thought my loud, "SHUT UP" would well...shut them up. I don't think they care.

No. If they're making noise and they won't stop when you ask them politely, then make more noise! Let them know how you feel about their noise, by putting them in your shoes.
