Music to make models go by
-
Totally mood-based. Fatboy Slim & Chemical Bros are favs, but I usually run the gamut from Sia to Sepultura. And since I have no shame I'll admit... I like me some Kelly Clarkson from time to time. Don't laugh, I know she's on your iPod too!

I listen to podcasts too but only a few. Mostly old radio programs and tech talk. When I do go to music it ranges from prog to '70s and '80s pop. I also dig bubblegum from time to time. Yes I admit it. Truthfully the music on most '60s bubblegum singles is very well played.
oh, and Pandora. just type in a band or artist and enjoy the ride!

Chillout or irish on internet radio - and Pandora, too.

Phil,
Old radio podcasts? Would you be so kind as to share a link? I used to listen to the broadcast here from 11PM to 1AM and then listen to Coast to Coast AM after that till I'd be asleep. The Shadow, The Whistler all those Hard-boiled detective ones, Suspense, the creaking door, X minus 1 etc. I would love to get some of that on my ipod for working.
I forgot that I streamlink Coast To Coast AM while I work too, that show is just too entertaining, focuses on the paranormal and is just a real free-for all for ideas (sign above door says "nutcases and cracker-jacks enter here!") Once in a blue moon they break a story that turns out to be pretty big though (like the current mysterious mass disappearance of honeybees) -
Rammstein.
-
ZZ Top and techno music to make me work fast. I feel more creative when I listen to Devo and Talking Heads.
-
Well, I rarely model with Sketchup, just doing extensions. So it's Speed Metal Coding

I'm an audiobook fan myself - I own quite a few, and my local library now lends them for free.
Seems to help me concentrate far better than any playlist - listening to a story must use a completely different part of the brain to painting. Strangely enough, as soon as I start compositing I have to turn it off, as the two start competing for brain space.
Just painted about four hours straight to 'Thud' by Terry Prattchet.

I am all over the board here.
I listen to Contempoaray Christian, Country, Classical, Trumpet concerto's, Brass ensemble & British style brass band, rock, some metal and lots of Jazz. -
What do I listen to these days? Autechre, AFX, Plaid, and maybe some Radiohead or Nine Inch Nails when I want to cheer myself up. Our IT tyrant has banned internet radio at work, but before that I spent a lot of time with SomaFM's Cliqhop and this weird Czech station that is all Trent Reznor, all the time (NINnet).
Do you really listen to Rammstein, Jeff?

Sean, I get my podcasts from itunes, but they originate from Podshow.com. Just checked that site and they're on a channel called "Old Time Radio" natch.

Seems everyone's "all over the board" on this one. I like to mix it up a bit on WinAmp, but mostly rock to metal.

Do you really listen to Rammstein, Jeff?Yea, Du Hast and Engle are a couple of my screaming favorites. I like NIN too. Devo; Kraftwerk; Karl Orff; RL Burnside; Soul Coughing, Eels; Liquid Soul; Medeski, Martin and Wood; Bitter:Sweet; Sountrack from Baraka; and the Pixies have all been on my play list in the last week.
Buffett and Bob Marley were about it over the holiday weekend.

The band I'm into at the mo is a usigned british band called Glamour of the Kill. You all should check them out.
Here is their myspace site.

Give them a listen.

It's a pity Kompressor, my favorite pseudo-German, pseudo-alien, death metal artist from the Midwest, has retired from the music business. But his music lives on "to crush puny America with German industrial might":

Try "K is for Kompressor"...you just cannot imagine how wonderful the video was. At one point he (rather flabbily) sings in the shower...with the alien mask on.
And then, "for something completely different", listen to Herr K's version of "The Girl from Ipanema."

Kompressor = the stuff. very funny - I remember the first time I heard that disc a couple years ago.. couldn't stop laughing.

It suddenly occurred to me: in YouTube is immortality.

By the way, the singing-in-the-shower scene was in Herr K's other hit video, "You have to Synthesize."

The "Girl from Ipanema" is really out there. Better than the original though!
K is for Krackpots!
-
I am currently listening to the "Glory of Gabrieli" Empire Brass 2006.
It is really charging me up and getting me going.

"Boomer Radio" (Internet), Smooth Jazz, all day long. Drives the kids crazy.
