    Off Topic - What do you guys use for music when working?

    Just curious if I am the only fool who cranks a wall of speakers at either side of the desk half-tilt while working?

    I find the music inspires me, gets me excited and opens up for different wordings when doing data entry type tasks such as blog writing and gallery text.

              Same.

              Can then concentrate completely on what i'm doing - and depending on the bpm of the music can work faster too.

                          I find it helps drown out the rest of the people in the house. Silence would be distracting heh.

                              Usually always. I have everything uploaded to Google Music and just stream to headphones.

                              This is what I'm listening to this second:

                                      I listen to Pandora, but not loud... just barely enough for me to hear it.

                                          When I have deadline to make, I crank the reign in Blood album by Slayer on repeat. It gets me frothing at the mouth like rabid dog.

                                              Either I use shoutcast through winamp on my desktop or pandora on my tv.

                                                  I have music on 24/7 unless I'm watching a movie or a show. Pirate radio - http://www.kqlz.org is what I'm mainly listening too.

                                                              I *ALWAYS* have music on while working. I picked up a pair of amazing Bose headphones and have them cranked to full blast while I work. I listen to mostly Metal but I have all kinds of music in my iTunes library. If there's no music, I can't think.

I probably listen to music about half the time when I work depending on how much I need to concentrate.

If I'm designing or coding, I listen a lot of music, ranging from electronica to South American folklore, from ambient to hard rock, I'm very eclectic in my taste. If I'm doing things I have to think more carefully (like writing text or data analysis) then I prefer absolute silence or a very calm relaxed music.

                                                                                                  For example, right now I'm listening a group (well, a one-man-band) I've just discovered, "Washed Out". Before that, Anna Calvi, Graffiti6, Massive Attack and Brian Eno, but earlier today I was listening the "Selling England by the pound" LP by Genesis and a compilation of hardcore and punk bands from the 80s
