finding inspiration through music

<< < (6/6)

Dom:
I tend to come up with ideas to music.  But for the actual translation from ideas to fingers, I can't have music on.  It would be, to me, like having a fiction book open next to me as I write...much too likely to push me off-course.

generally the slow, mellow, emotional rock that builds up into legendary climaxes?  can be really beautiful, or incredibly sorrowful?
If not, and if you are curious, and if you have the thyme, I would reccomend checking out Mono's "ashes in the snow" for a great example.

I mostly mention thise because Post-Rock tends to be the most inspiring for me.

I was not familiar with the term post-rock until I looked it up.  Spent some time listening to excerpts of the bands that you mentioned.  Intriguing.  I may need to pick some of it up and give it a try.  Right now, I'm on a progressive music kick -- Porcupine Tree, Coheed & Cambria, Anathema, Transatlantic, and the Flower Kings.

Ulfgeir:
Often write with music on. Either mp3's on winamp, some CD's or listening to an online radiostation (www.regenradio.net). That siad, if I listen to the radiostation I will often check into the chat associated to it as well so it willdefinetly cut down on my writing...
