What are you listening to?

Does your shuffle function stay within a genre? If I allow a player to *truly* shuffle across my entire library, I might get Sinatra followed by some techno...that just...doesn't work.

I'm curious: while working at the keyboard, do you listen to something? White noise, music, nature sounds? Dish.
Well now that the #$%#^%^ dogs have shut up (they aren't my dogs, but somehow I have to walk and feed them) I finally put on my QC15s and am listening to the beach boys. Came across some other folders full of music from bad times, so that got parked elsewhere. If I really get into a deep spot, then it's be a soundtrack - Hunt for Red October is excellent.

The sound of my hoarse breathing from screaming at the computer?
cheers Chris Maunder
The sound of my hoarse breathing from screaming at the computer IT? Fixed that for you. Corporate IT has turned on things for the corporate firewall that causes 99.9% of the worlds websites to fail to load. CP's servers seem to have their #$%%^ together. I suspect this is why I cannot obtain a network license key to build some code my boss needs....

Before lockdown, I used earphone to escape from others & distraction. My music player has around 600+ songs.

Been a long time since I saw you post, but then, I myself haven't been very active. How are you doing, all good?
Cheers, Vikram.

During work, I prefer melodic electronic music with no substantial lyrics.

Usually prefer silence but, paradoxically, when I need a music break, it's often something like Jesus and Mary Chain or Pixies or Rammstein or something equally raucous.

A lot, from electronic dance music to black and death metal to classical to soundtracks. I was just listening to some random electro swing, but I've switched it for Vexed, a metalcore band :D

Internet radio. I have two stations I've listened to for years: Delicious Agony Progressive Rock Radio and Morow.com.

I enjoy soundtracks too, but I usually listen to a re-mixed version like what I find on Ambient Worlds yt channel. I especially enjoy the ones with seaside sounds added - Pirates of the Caribbean and HP Shell Cottage. I'll look for the Red October - there might be some ocean noises in that ...

On my Windows 10 laptop I use my own VB net player based on VLC. On my Android devices I use a very basic URL based player called 'CustomRadioPlayer RadioStream App'. It's very, very simple but works!

Music. Depending on my mood: - Heavy Metal: Nightwish, Nocturna, Lacuna Coil, Metallica, Dio, Saxon, DevilDriver, Warlock, Black Sabbath, Judas Priest, Korn, System of a Down... - Rock or Punk: Fleetwood Mac, Blue Oyster Cult, WASP, Dead Kennedys, Sex Pistols, Clash, Nirvana, Alice in Chains, Soundgarden, Audioslave, Pixies. - Dark electronic: mostly Sisters of mercy, some Prodigy, Ministry, Depeche Mode, Type O Negative. - 80s: a lot of 80s miscellaneous stuff like Gazebo, Thompson Twins etc etc. Thanks to my dad collection I have an encyclopedic knowledge of music from that period.

Don't you just love this community where "I use my own ..." isn't unusual, but so, so satisfying? :)

I love variety. I'm learning to enjoy genres that I've never liked before by trying different artists.
What usually helps is listening to some artists that are slightly different from what you're used to. If you listen to classical music and go straight to the blackest of black metal you'll probably think metal sucks. If you start listening to Nightwish first, for example, you'll probably don't find it half bad and your tastes start to shift. And from Nightwish you can move to harder metal bands. There are always bands who mix two or more genres that you'd probably like if you listen to either one genre and can get you accustomed to the other.
