What do you listen to while working? :)

[akaCheezy]

There really is something relaxing about just listening to people talk about nonsense.

[adrder]

Depends of the day work and mood, from country to opera passing for the metal path in the same time.

[gremriel]

I'm totally out of the loop when it comes to today's music. I listen to a Dutch Indie webstation, PinguinRadio, and they have a 24/7 alternative rock channel. The best thing about this, they don't do commercials, have no news and no DJ's with their incessant chatter where they think they are funny.
24 hours a day of rock, ranging from Black Sabbath to Slayer, and everything in between. Heaven.

What I listen to depends on the type of mood i'm in at a given time. If I need to really concentrate on my comic and if i'm pressed for time, I listen to music only. I don't really have a favorite music genre so I have a pretty big music selection ranging from reggae, jpop/jrock, kpop, video game music, metal, classical, 90s R&B, 80s etc. Too many to list xD!

If i'm in a laid back mood and not pressed for time, I'll listen to a combination of music and youtube scary stories and podcasts. I like the scary podcasts the most! I've recently become very addicted to the NoSleep Podcast and Black Tapes Podcast.

Korean music, anywhere from Krock to adult contemporary. (I have one cd) but I think it's based on what I'm drawing at the time.

I don't really know any American artist and I live in the US! x.x" aside from lindsey stirling.

[stephensharpe707]

It's either youtube or BBC Radio 2 for me depending on mood/if I'm awake. Love a bit of Ken Bruce in the morning :B

OH almost forgot, Started getting into podcasts, so The Adventure Zone and Welcome to Nightvale when available.

[joannekwan]

My extensive iTunes library, and sometimes random music on youtube. I like singing along if the lyrics are ingrained in my mind. Can't listen to any audiobooks or podcasts because then I have to pay attention to what they're saying.

I usually listen to music on spotify but now I've made a movie soundtrack playlist with like 800+ songs, it's great because the worse thing is when playlists starts repeating themselves

[phen]

It's still a mix of electronic and downtempo for me but for the past few weeks, all soundtracks from NES, SNES, Game Boy, and Genesis consoles. Those classic chiptunes, the lively polyphonic flow from the 90's soundcards are incredible for helping me focus. I still pop onto the NESGuide online station (you can tune in to just NES or just SNES music as well as a mix of both!)

It's music engineered to accompany problem-solving, and YO, what is comics creation but a massive equation you work on to the end?? X]

I like to listen upbeat happy music like A Great Big World or Hey Ocean, but lately when I draw ive found myself listening to random youtube videos on the background, like top tens or podcasts.

[eleoza]

I listen to nightcore...
It makes me draw really fast and go like RAWRRRRRRRRRRRRR .-. yes....

[nadis]

usually i listen to soundtracks but i have a playlist on youtube for when i use my computer for art

[serverpanda]

I usually put on a documentary I've seen before, or a historical audio book. I have to be learning constantly or I go a little crazy. It's weird.

[UltimateGallo]

Depending on the mood, the most usuall thing is anime and videogame soundtracks, but sometimes I get a little specific, When I am drawing my comic The mexican I hear a lot of acoustig guitars like "Rodrigo & Gabriela" some country songs, sometimes desolated songs and even metal, but when I am drawing (mostly writhing) Disaster Five I hear indie groups, maybe rock groups, depending on the character I am Writring (foo figthers, weezer, blonde redhead, ougtasing, Mayew Hawtorne...)

[UrMom]

Youtube normally, channels like 'This is Dan Bell', or 'Rob Dyke', or 'They Will Kill You'. Sometimes let's play, or dramatic reading channels. Anything that can give good background noise.

[serenitysquirrel]

Stargate SG1

[sillydilly2002]

Either a podcast, rock, Mandopony, or Random encounters.

[Cielle]

I usually listen to Kajiura Yuki, though lately I've been branching out a bit. I've been listening to All That Ghibli Jazz (it's great seriously), Bonobo, Tycho, Tipper, O.T.T., et cetera. I also really like the Ao No Exorcist OST, The Legend of Zelda 25th Anniversary Orchestra, and The Durarara!! OST. I prefer listening to music without words while I work because it's easier for me to focus. I used to try listening to podcasts, but I realized I can ether pay attention to the podcast, or I can pay attention to my comic. Maybe one day I'll be able to do both =_=

[ahkwardkat]

I usually listen to music that relates to the mood of the page/panels I'm working on. I was a musician all throughout high school and we always made stories as a band. We'd get new music and just listen to it first, not even read the sheets with it. Afterwards we would talk about the composer's intentions and ideas about the story or ideas behind the music.

Then we'd sit together and make a story to go with it, going measure by measure, note by note to make a song with a story. I kinda still do that but reversed. I think of the story or drawing I'm making a choose a song that I feel fits that to serve as a way to channel the emotions I want to put in the page. ouo

Works for me and people seem to be feeling what I want them to. :'D

[danitasibert]

i listen to a variety of music, video game music, pop songs rap , it just depends on what i am drawing most of the time, b ut if not i would want some YouTube videos, cartoon or a Hells Kitchen! XD (I love Hell's Kitchen!)
I know i have to have something going on in the background for me to work, its kind of creepy if i work when its silent.
