I read about this phenomenon on Andrew Sullivan's blog yesterday:
http://dish.andrewsullivan.com/2014/10/13/aural-sex-ctd-2/
It's kind of a pleasurable tingling (not sexual) at the back of one's head and a languid sensation in the face, spine, and shoulders triggered (apparently) by soft, sibilant, repetitive sounds and/or close proximity to another person as when getting hair cut, a suit fitted, eyes examined or teeth cleaned. There are thousands of youtube videos, some with many millions of views meant to trigger the experience for people: another odd little corner of the internet.
Turns out I've always experienced this, but never knew it was unusual or thought about it at all. I also never knew it was possible to trigger it at will, but the video at the top of Sullivan's post sure works for me. (Specifically, the sound works -- the sibilants, soft dental stops, velar plosives, and binaural shifts -- the video and words are extraneous.) I'm curious whether anyone else has heard of it/experiences it.
