Post by thread:[OT]: Weekend Ramblings: Music

Curious as to know what music Picsters listen to while coding (if any)? Current play list (in no particular order): Bread: Anthology of. Roger Waters: Pros and cons of hitchhiking, Radio Kaos, Amused to death. Sisters of Mercy: A slight case of overbombing. Loreena McKennith: the book of secrets. The Big Blue soundtrack. Janis Joplin: Greatest Hits. Pink Floyd: The Wall, Wish you were here (and more). Rocky Horror Picture Show soundtrack (hehe, always slip that one in when I feel giddy with all the coding). JJ Cale: Special edition (and more). And a variety of others. Quentin -- http://www.piclist.com#nomail Going offline?

Any background noise bugs the hell out of me. I love music, but can't listen while I write code. Makes me feel a little stupid, to tell the truth.

When you say "The Big Blue " sound, do you mean the music maded by Eric Serra for the french movie "The Big Blue" (or, "Deep Blue", I dont remember well). (director: Luc Besson).I like this film and the music is good, too. When I programm, I hear radio, ... everything that the disc-jockey plays! :) Sometimes I run the Winamp and play Enya, Café Quijano, Mecano, Bruce Springsteen, Eros Ramazzotti (my girlfriend is a big fan) and a lot more... Yes, I have "The wall" and "Wish you were here", and like it. Cheers! :) Alejandro.

For me (I work as a DJ on weekends), the music plays a big role. As I am also easily distracted if there is any background noise, that's why I always keep something playing while I am coding (to muffle the noise out). I prefer music, that does not have any (or have only few) lyrics, because I have often found myself listening to the lyrics while I should have been coding. Examples: Jean Michel Jarre (The Composer of the 20th century) Kraftwerk (Legendary) Laserdance (and other spacesynth) Mike Oldfield (the instrumental ones) Rob Zombie (dig thought the ditches and burn though the witches...) Rammstein (new album is great) Carcass, Rotten Sound and others like that... melodic trance in general (I cannot name any favorite) classical (Bach mostly) These I listen while in more-listening-not-so-much-coding -mode: Manic Street Preachers,3 Doors Down The Manhattan Transfer Run DMC Manowar,Iron Maider,Helloween The Beatles Metallica (older, before the black album) Hardcore Superstars italo-disco from the 80's blues, many different artists Lullacry,Nightwish,Stratovarius,Sonata Arctica,Sentenced +other Finnish melodic metal and also bands that sing in finnish, but I don't list them here :) Now playing :) J.M.Jarre - Oxygene 7-13 - Kari - ( - DJ Korppi - :) -- http://www.piclist.com hint: The list server can filter out subtopics (like ads or off topics) for you.

Having been involved in cpu's for the past 25 years (hardware and software) I have gone from rock to classical and now I am listening to New Age (Eric Tingstad, Secret Garden, Hillary Stagg to name a few). I have the Dish Network satellite receiver and the programming includes a large number of audio (music) only channels, with no talking or commercials. I record 6 hours worth on a vcr tape then go through the tape listening for songs I like. When I find one, I check it against the spread sheet of songs recorded so far. If not present then I record it to my computer. Once I have enough for a CD I burn a CD. So far I have 39 such CD's that average less than 2 minutes of unused space on the CD. I have started moving my old vinyl records to CD. The Larry Fast Synergy albums remain some of my favorite - there were 4 in all as I recall - one was of clear vinyl. Pretty cool to look through.

I'm afraid I can't listen to anything I really really like when programming. My tastes are pretty eclectic and I'll hop around the FM from classical (not opera not opera) to student indie to jock rock to classic hits to talk back. If I'm working on anything such as nested loops or maths where you need to think a couple of steps ahead then it has to be silence or I'll be on the same routine all day. When the programming stops and it's a-solderin' time, then Yes, Genesis (with Peter Gabriel), Return To Forever, Deep Purple, in fact just about anything regarded as dinosaur rock. I thought the 90's were pretty dismal, with a few exceptions (Alice In Chains, Smashing Pumpkins, Veruca Salt). Music is so much more a product these days many very samey bands just don't appeal to me -- http://www.piclist.com#nomail Going offline?
