    Instead of music, it sets a calm atmosphere. Sometimes its stuff that resembles music, sometimes its just interesting ambient sounds… strange. I find its nice, because music can be overstimulating and distracting…whereas this seems to help me work much better.

    In my earlier years I wouldn’t have listened to anything like this! I guess its a sign of age!

    We have a Rhapsody subscription (so my kids can listen to music legally) so I put a bunch of things into a playlist and then shuffle.

    Typically upbeat while I’m working and the house is empty – today it was Kings of Leon, Fall Out Boys, The Strokes, The Gaslight Anthem, Bruno Mars, Band of Horses and Blind Pilot

    Silence. If I play music I must get up and dance. I’ve used coffivity http://coffitivity.com while in the office when a guy down the hall played music all day, which made me want to dance.

    Whole range of stuff ( I LOVE music!) but a lot of the time Sigur Ros ends up being on high repeat for me.

    That depends on what I am doing and the mood too. Right now the only sounds are the birds a few meters away outside the sliding door.

    * Classical music if I am editing (books) or sometimes writing too.
    * Upbeat “happy” music if I’m working with Illustrations, artwork or photography.
    * Jazz or Easy Listening records if I’m just writing or general PC work.
    * Rock, dance or even Disco when I’m in a hyper mood LOL!

    Very different music, Classic, Jazz, Independent, even Punk and French Hip Hop 🙂

    Right now it’s The Who

    Won’t Get Fooled Again

    Couldn’t that be part of the “Soundtrack” for Symbiostock 😀

    Okay, I feel like I HAVE to share this … I really love it 🙂

    If you’d like to listen to great music and laugh a lot here it is: Chilly Gonzales together with the Radio Symphony Orchestra Vienna, 2011:
