      I find I’m more focused while painting/drawing whilst listening to my ipod, my favorite ‘get in the art mood’ is music by ‘A Fine Frenzy’, I really like singer-songwriter type music but I listen to a bit of everything too.

      Either you paint, draw, write, or anything else what type of music do you guys listen to while doing creating? Or do you work better in silence or perhaps watching TV?

      I make playlists for different projects and/or novels. My NaNoWriMo last year was full of silly and trashy love songs. My longer novels use playlists with epic video game soundtracks (I’ll never stop listening to Skyrim!), classical, anime and video game soundtracks, folk, and some rock. Oh god, and Tori Amos, she gets into everything. I used to not be able to listen to anything with English lyrics as it was distracting when I was trying to write, but I’ve gotten over that.

      Example of first ten songs from in Yon Green Hill playlist:
      Forest of Glass, Tori Amos
      Da Pacem (chanting monks)
      Firstborn, Celldweller
      A Winter’s Tale, Skyrim soundtrack
      the Black Rider LOTR soundtrack
      Master of Tides, Lindsey Stirling
      Kindertotenlieder, Mahler
      Numquam Vicar, Madoka soundtrack
      Metro, System of a Down
      Do Not stand on my grave, Libera

        Enya (a TON of her stuff – I have ALL of her music!)
        Lisa Lynne
        Loreena McKennitt
        Celtic Women
        Labyrinth soundtrack
        Elektra soundtrack

        IN SEARCH OF MY NEXT GRAILS:
        Black Peacock & Butternut Adult Poads

          I listen to movie scores. I like to think they are the modern version of classical music. Like Mozart, Beethoven, etc.
          I’m currently alternating between
          Star Trek (2009 movie version) and Transformers (2007), but I’ve got all three Lord of the Rings movies, Gladiator, Star Wars (all 7 movies, because John Williams is THE MAN), Pirates of the Caribbean….and other odds and ends. I downloaded some Game of Thrones music (from Season 1) because I loved the intro music.

          Love baby kirins, safari poads, mini keepers, and anything BLUE, BLUE, and, oh yes, BLUE.

              I pretty much never listen to music nowadays. Whether I’m painting, cleaning, running, shopping, or commuting to work, I listen almost exclusively to Podcasts. I use to listen to TV programs, but that has waned in the last several months. Music just doesn’t really excite or stimulate me. :~

                Essentially anything, I love a wide array of music. I guess to get me perky and pepped up, Owl City always does the trick.

                Finding happiness again.

                  Yes, John Williams is amazing! I love ‘The Chairman’s Waltz’ by him, I think it’s mostly due to the use of the Cello, I’m a cello fanatic. 2Cellos also has some awesome work, ‘Hurt’ and ‘Fields of gold’ are really beautiful in Cello form.

                              … blinks at the list so far …

                              Um… I’ll pop on my headphones and listen to System of a Down, Disturbed, Nine Inch Nails, Bring Me The Horizon, Starset, Breaking Benjamin, Thousand Foot Krutch, From The Ashes… the list goes on, but it’s mostly alternative, metal, or rapcore. *innocent smile*
