What music do you listen to when designing?

Okay, a popular topic to do on all boards. Now we hit it off on GR.

So yeah, what music do YOU listen to when designing? For me, It’s been pretty silent lately. Otherwise it usually used to be house/hip hop. House generally when doing poster work since those tend to be electro.

To be more specific:

Daft Punk Symbian Mobile Disco Freestylers Laidback Luke

etc.

I love anything like Daft Punk or Justice (or more in that trend) when designing, and on the other hand, I’m also a rocker and I love to listen to Nirvana, Guns n Roses, etc.

I have over 300 songs lol but I don’t listen to them all. Punk, metal, dark metal, dark rock, hard rock, punk metal, punk rock (E.X. Relient K), a tad of hip-hop-rock, and other stuff.

Here are some of my fav bands I’ve been listening to latly (most of them are indie, but they have awesome talent. I got 60+ free songs http://www.indievisionmusic.com/wordpress/2008/11/05/another-way-to-fight-compilation/

Blue Cadet and the brave December Saving Grace Blood Command Gray lines of perfection The concept Triplet Maylene and the sons of disaster (if you were on gomedia latly you’ll have seen something from these guys) CurbSquirrels All have fallen RED (non-indie) House of Heroes (non-indie) John Ruben (non-indie) Theocracy

Well… lol, the list goes on and on and on, but I’ll stop there. I have a list of all my fav bands on my blog.

None. I actually love netflix and put on TV shows and movies while I work.

Never the same thing for me but lately it’s been “Eric Hutchinson” who I actually went and seen last night at Stubb’s (Austin, TX). He opened up for G Love which is another great artist. It’s a great time to be in Austin with SXSW coming up!

Mostly some ‘grunge lyrics’ like Tom Waits, Nick Cave, Leonard Cohen, Jacques Brel, Vladimir Vysotsky, or Led Zeppelin, or Johann Sebastian Bach, or some hot flamenco guitar, or some cool jazz piano…

Hard rock, heavy metal, alternative, mostly. =)

Snap! Same here but I often get accused of skiving off work then…

I used to listen to Pandora while I worked but lately I have been listening to Bocelli. If it’s a different language I can concentrate more. lol Once itunes passes those two songs it’s back to Taking Back Sunday and Red Jumpsuit Apparatus. I guess it depends on the time of day and the client – mid-day it’s 80’s music and late night I need something to keep me going.
