"If music be the food of love, play on,
Give me excess of it; that surfeiting,
The appetite may sicken and so die. –
That strain again; – it had a dying fall;
O, it came o'er my ear like the sweet south,
That breathes upon a bank of violets:
Shakespeare - The Twelfth Night
Just wondering what music (if any) you all listen to while painting. Depending on my mood and the piece I'm working on, I listening to a broad range of different music from hardcore punk to classical. I don't much care for Rap (or Hip Hop whatever the difference is) or Country Western, but I ALWAYS have music on while painting. It doesn't matter if I'm playing it aloud on my indoor stereo or listening to it on my iPod (which I always do when using my largest, noisy compressor outdoors), music add the extra inspiration that I need to paint.
Anyone care to throw in their two cents? What type of music inspires what type of painting?
