[freefall]

Trance music for me when post processing...

I listen to trance too, there is sooooo much variation to listen to and it neverr bores me. Sometimes even go for the Gatecrasher chillout discs.

 

[swanseamale47]

Normally I don't but very occasionally I will, in the office we tend to have the radio on in the background, but we are usually talking over it most of the time.

 

[Lord Carson]

I listen to music any time I am in front of my pc....

Pink Floyd
Black Sabbath
Kings of Leon
Beatles
Ray Charles
Stranglers
Creedence Clearwater Revival

the list goes on and on. I am easy pleased with my music tastes

Vonyc Sessions 2009 Presented by Paul van Dyk on now for moi

 

[TriggerHappy]

I listen to music whilst doing most things. I have very eclectic tastes ranging from chart stuff such as La Roux (playing now) through dubstep artists such as Burial all the way to classical greats like Beethoven. My Mum says I have a song for every occasion and she's probably right. Can't imagine life without a soundtrack!

 

[david1701]

Right now, it's "The End" by The Doors. OMG, I feel old...

lol I got the doors hits on and I'm 19

If I have had a good productive photography day and there's a lot of images to shift through, then usually I have a Tangerine Dream album playing on my headphones as I resize and process them photos for internet use.
I won't ever be short on Tangerine Dream music to listen to as I have over 90 albums of them.

 

[ChrisGaskin]

Anything i can sing along to really, much to the wifes protests...

 

[Lazlo Woodbine]

I've started listening to audiobooks recently. Really helps the time pass during those week long processing sessions.

 

[itsdavedotnet]

What? You all over 30?

Cool fun photo stuff, indie/emo/industrial rock, bit of (not %@*%) dnb/club/dubstep(ish) stuff...

boring lame 'non photography' photography, something smoother, really digging M83 and sigur ros atm. Kind of ...numbs the mind

Oh, and always with a side order of beer or wine...

Saw them live once in the 70s in a small place before they got big.

[Fezman]

Its Ludovico Einaudi (sp) for me - just like to chill whilst PP - not that I've done a great deal in the last year or so :-(

 

[itsdavedotnet]

[KIPAX]

SMOOTH FM for me while processing.. Sweet Soul music all night long

 

[trencheel303]

I always listen to music; and since i have a really varied taste it can be anything from Pantera to Tears for Fears.

 

[the_doctor199]

Always listen to music no matter what I'm doing, I feel naked without it No particular choice really, just whatever is playing on Spotify at the time.

 

[elektro]

I like to do that

 

[Big_Ham]

I do sometimes process without music, but I seem to find it easier when I have some background noise. I have no idea why though.

[MadMacro]

Radio 7 for me, or my own butt*u*k*n*ly good compilation mp3 cd.....

 

[EdinburghGary]

Working along to "Rocky Horror Picture Show - Original Soundtrack" Absolute genius songwriting. Films a bit weird though Taking the pain out of the 165 files I need to process before 1pm!!!

Gary.

 

[martyp]

Pretty much always have some form of noise on whatever I'm doing on the comp.

Usually just a shuffle of 70/80s in iTunes or VH1 Classic although that can be a little distracting as I just watch the bottom right of the monitor...

 

[sakura]

[MC_Stoo]

Depends on my mood...

• Zero 7
• BB King
• Evanescence
• Mandy Moore
• Nickelback
• Sting

[drodd]

Hey David1701, great to see you are still with us (woz worried when I saw the suspender)

[eggbanjo]

6 music mostly, or folk.

 

[Naboo32]

I always put my iPod on, through the hi-fi speakers, on 'random' and then ... totally ignore it !

Sometimes it plays about 50 songs during a long processing session and at the end of it all I'm lucky if I can remember three of them . PPing's just too engrossing for me, and being a bloke, I can't multi-task anyway :shrug:.
