<p>I listen to bands like Jack's Mannequin, Straylight Run, MIKA, and Something Corporate.</p>
<p>How about you?</p>
<p>I go on Pandora and listen to Jack Johnsony type music. It’s chill and not distracting and keeps me focused.</p>
<p>depending on what I’m doing, I’ll listen to my favorite songs or something quieter. but snow patrol is perfect</p>
<p>whatever that’s been on repeat, since it’s easier to keep it as purely background noise.
now it’s swell season.
but mumford and sons works as well for me.</p>
<p>When I’m concentrating I like more soundscape-y music, like Pink Floyd or late 70’s David Bowie, though lately I’ve found that world music can be really nice for working; I really like Seu Jorge and Freshlyground.</p>
<p>^ “Heroes”? I have Stationtostation, which is a crappy album, and The Man Who Sold the World, which is of much better quality overall</p>
<p>EDIT: and I usually listen to bands like the Clash, Pistols, Superchunk, GBV, and Oasis. They’re pretty peppy but I can still tune them out when I need to</p>
<p>Ah! I also listen to Jack Johnson, Mumford and Sons, and Snow Patrol. I’m trying to broaden my horizon in music, while keeping it related to the forum. Haha.</p>
<p>^^yeah “heroes” though i was mainly thinking of “low”</p>
<p>Muse, baby</p>
<p>To list a few, Nomak, Kondor, Squarepusher, Blazo.</p>
<p>You’ve probably never heard of them.</p>
<p>One word…</p>
<p>JAPANESE! 
</p>
<p>The sounds of the birds.
The sounds of the cars passing.
Is music to me.</p>
<p>no, usually stuff like Neutral Milk Hotel, Regina Spektor, or the Yeah Yeah Yeahs. Stuff that really blocks out the world.</p>
<p>ratatat .</p>
<p>^winner. </p>
<p>ssrsssrs</p>
<p>Jazz, usually.</p>
<p>I heard if you listen to Mozart, it helps somehow. </p>
<p>Or that might have been for mice only.</p>
