Good Writing Music...

(1/3) > >>

blgarver:
For those of us who listen to music while writing, does anyone have any good suggestions?

I listen to movie scores, from Howard Shore, Thomas Newton Howard, Hans Zimmer, John Williams, etc...  I also listen to select rock; Celldweller, Tool, Led Zepplin.

Celldweller I like for my action scenes, and I hoped someone could recommend other groups similar to them.

Kiriath:
I usually listen to instrumentals. :)

Video game soundtracks, mostly, like Symphony of the Night, Lunar II and anything from OCRemix. I've been listening to my classicals more, too.

Have any definition for Celldweller? Dark gothic? Power rock? :)

blgarver:
I guess Celldweller would be power rock, similar to Adema.

LizW65:
Anything with lyrics distracts the hell out of me.  I might listen to songs for inspiration but when writing I really prefer silence.  Some very quiet jazz in the background is OK though -  Coltrane's Blue Train is a nice choice, as is Kind of Blue by Miles Davis.

Ooooooo, Jazz.  Good call!  I need to add some to my library.
