Good Writing Music...
RMatthewWare:
Anything that is loud enough to block outside noises. It usually helps if it's something I've listened to a lot. I can almost use the music as white noise so I can get in my zone without being distracted by the music itself. I listen to a lot of Cake, Evanescence, and The Dresden Dolls. Sometimes I even put on Alice Cooper.

I listen to music to get me into the zone, particularly when my brain doesn't want to write. Some of my reliables are Yanni and various anime soundtracks. But my current fave is DragonForce; their Inhuman Rampage and Sonic Firestorm CDs really get the blood pumping. ;D

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.

There's no way I could listen to Kind Of Blue while writing. It builds a world of its own and puts me in something close to a trance. :)
