No can't do music and work at the same time. If the music is good then it will just take me over. Sort of wish that I had the skill to do this but alas never learnt it. It is either one or the other for me. That being said I did like your post so thank you. Never heard of Tobacco before. Now I have heard about 6 songs from this album. It is really interesting because at this moment I love it and hate it at the same time. Sort of thrown me into a musical cognitive dissonance. So I will have to listen to some more and listen more closely. So thanks for the post.

When I was growin' up, I was the smartest kid I knew. Maybe that was just because I didn't know that many kids. All I know is now I feel the opposite.

Check out The Art of Noise - The Seduction of Claude Debussy It's an operatic biography laid out in scenes. It's also a really great meld of improvisational electronic and classical music.

What are you listening to while you code? TOBACCO - Dimensional Hum - YouTube[^] This album, right now. Tomorrow, something different

God is an Astronaut, Caspian, Explosions in the Sky, Do Make Say Think, This Will Destroy You, and Mogwai are my mainstays. Not fitting into that category, but something I've also been listening to lately is a lot of George Winston.

I've listened to some of his solo stuff, but like him with PT better. Would love to see him/them in person. If I would have known they were playing in Pensacola I would have come over, I'm in Jax!

Dream Theater will be there in a few weeks. (27th) I just got back from seeing them in Chicago. The second half of the show is 'Scenes from a Memory' in it's entirety. BTW, I'm about 90 miles west of Tallahassee...most of my customers are in FL. :)

I'll check that label out. I feel like that about Rhymesayers but then, I can listen to lyrics while I code and a lot of people can't. It also helps me focus when I'm manic because it ties up all the stray distractions into one place - any focus not on code is on the lyrics. =) I'm an oddball.

Yes you are correct. Is it OK if sometimes I hear the devil giving me instructions when I listen to it? I am enjoying it. Thanks again.

I'm half convinced TOBACCO is the devil - or at least working for him

I like a wide variety of stuff, but saw this new one by Lake Street Drive the other day. It's just spine tinglingly good: Lake Street Dive, "Musta Been Something" Night Owl | NPR Music - YouTube[^]

It seems I am in a small minority, but I prefer to listen to classical - usually solo piano, but a wide variety of other styles under the "classical" umbrella... at a low volume and not too raucous.
You might like George Winston, then. He plays solo piano; hard to say what his style is, but it is not classical. "Forest" probably has the most songs that have made it on to my favorites list, but there are several good songs on all his CDs (I have 7 of them). His "Tamarack Pines" from the "Forest" CD is one of the coolest piano pieces I've ever heard.
