music to tame your painting beast

[Legacy Account]

You\'d enjoy Consumed by Richie Hawtin/Plastikman then....

Aural ketamine.....

 

[Ritual]

A lot of the stuff I listen to otherwise makes my nerves crash if I try to paint to it...

You can\'t beat an incessant 160bpm drum machine hacking away in the background!

You listen to stuff on Drumcode at all Anders? Adam Beyer, Lenk, Thomas Krome that sort of stuff? Not really bought anything like that for a few years, but there were some excellent tunes coming out of Sweden. Adam Beyer kicks arse.

 

[Ritual]

Nah, I\'ve heard about them, but never actually heard them!

 

[Duende]

I listen to stuff nobody\'s ever heard of. And when I try to get any of my friends to listen to any, they won\'t. :~(

I don\'t paint very well in silence. I\'ve noticed I tend to get frustrated a lot easier if there\'s nothing good playing. So having my CD player nearby when painting is a necessity.

metallica, green day, acdc, iron maiden, offspring, etc... i used to listen to system of a down, but now i refuse since they hate america.

[Ebonbuddha]

I forgot Rammstein, Skinny Puppy, Pigface, and Fugazi.

 

[Mick]

a little Led for your head always hits the spot..especially in head phones

 

[Drake Farstrider]

When painting I perfer either complete silence or Pink Floyd or celtic music.

 

[Ritual]

I bought the new Depeche Mode album today, and that is a damn good painting album I must say!

Smooth Jazz / New Age for painting.
It\'s my time to relax. Life is stressful.

[sebrushworth]

Hmm, there isn\'t really a single type of music that I prefer. I love the Lost Boys soundtrack, the Conan barbarian soundtrack and the Jesus Christ superstar soundtrack, and I like Evanescense, Nightwish, The Ark (Swedish glamrock kind of band), System of a down, U2, Savage garden, Queen.

 

[JayeL]

The Clash
Ramones
Hanoi Rocks
Manic St. Preachers.

Great to listen to anytime but especially when painting
