What keeps you focused and enjoying your time while you're editing?

Certain CDs or songs, online radio, or in other formats?

Online Radio, the station I prefer is Radio Paradise.

i either listen to my podcasts or just have my t..v on for background noise.

Depends on time of day, mood, season, type of photos I'm working on...I could go on. I don't think there's any time during the day that I don't listen to music really. I can't stand silence...maybe only because I have really bad tinitus and there really is no silence but more than that, I just love music.

crank up the itunes.... some days I'll listen to mellower stuff like Jack Johnson some days a little harder stuff like the Foo Fighters it all depends

Louisville has the best public radio station in the world! They have a great "adult album alternative" format. I leave it on constantly; I can't stand silence either. But I also can't stand the sound of the television; the commercials drive me batty. On Sundays, they go to an all jazz format, which is great in the mornings with my coffee (like now), but I usually have to turn to my music on my computer by the afternoon; the jazz makes me sleepy sometimes on a Sunday afternoon!

Damien Rice and Teitur I like to listen to... to pick up the pace... some blue six...

I am a huge Sara Groves fan. Thought of her because she is from MSP too, Ginger. Her latest album is great like many of her older ones.

I also love to listen to classical music or NPR.

XM radio online.

Texas Blues Cafe podcasts. Loud.

+100.

I love their ecclectic mix.

Lots of stuff, really. Typically classic rock - The Eagles, Fleetwood Mac, Bob Seger, Kansas... I also like Yael Naim, Jack Johnson, etc.

Creative work: anything cinematic, moody, emotional.
• Sigur Ros
• Alexi Murdoch
• Sufjan Stevens
• Greg Laswell
• Bob Marley
• Hem, Ingrid Michaelson, Alison Krause

Color work: upbeat, slammin' drums.

• Dance music from the UK: LTJ Bukem, Wiley
• Matisyahu
• Relient K
• Beastie Boys, Beck, Robert Walter's 20th Congress
• David Vandervelde

When it comes down to it, I'm just a music lover. If it's got heart, emotion and/or a beat I'm game!

Depends on my mood. Lately I've been on a trance kick... the mindless beats and quick pace really gets me into a zone. Usually its classic rock though... I'm a HUGE "Rush" fan.

+1 Sigur Ros is so perfect for editing.

Silverchair's "Diorama" is really good too. It's very cinematic.

Oooh! nice... (off to iTunes Store.)

-Leon

Editing music? Hmmm...good question for Amber Holritz.

Mmm. My favourite. Here are some:
Sara Bareilles
Jason Reeves
Colbie Caillat

Ella Fitzgerald & Louis Armstrong
Madeleine Peyroux

I could go on and on. And I second the afore mentioned Sufjan Stevens and Ingrid Michaelson

All things considered....

Boortz....

and about six different music stations on Pandora

Sara Groves is one of my favorite artists. I have Add to the Beauty... If she has come out with a new one, I haven't gotten it yet! My husband and I play our cellos at her church from time to time. She's never been there when I've played, though. There was one time I couldn't play, and my husband did, and Sara sang with the orchestra that time. I was so jealous!!I wish I understood that!

Everything from classical to eminem! LOL!

Pandora is also a cool way to listen to music... and free!

Oh my! What did I step into when I asked that question!! HAHA!

In that case, I already have some good music. Thanks guys!

LOL

Jack Johnsons new albums rocks...
