bandit1 Posted March 21, 2012 Posted March 21, 2012 Found some new tunes!...... By the way what ever happen'd to the official music thread?
Sam Cates Posted March 21, 2012 Posted March 21, 2012 Well for me it kind of depends on what I am building. For instance, if I am building anything stock or custom from the 50's and earlier, I listen to stuff like this, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XIwlKLB8RpI&feature=g-all-u&context=G29f5953FAAAAAAAABAA or when I am building drag stuff or 60's-70's stuff, I listen to this Ofcourse there are deviations here and there... Metal, butt rock, 80's pop and what not.
fastram Posted March 21, 2012 Posted March 21, 2012 I put on AOL Radio on my computer and listen to Southern Rock. It reminds me of simpler times when I was younger and still building models regularly. Now a lot of the time is planning out the model, setting back looking at which wheels look best, what color combo......listen to the Allman Brothers, Doobie Brothers, 38 Special, Charlie Daniels......look at the model again...... And I get one built every once in a while!
SuperStockAndy Posted March 21, 2012 Posted March 21, 2012 Classic rock! Love me some old Rush or ZZ Top. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h59mDlBSt7o
Ramfins59 Posted March 21, 2012 Posted March 21, 2012 Instead of listening to the radio, I turn on "Music Choice" on my local cable TV service and listen to either the Blues or Classic Rock. Occasionally I'll put some Eric Clapton CD's on. I also enjoy it being quiet when I'm building, when no one else is home, and I sometimes don't put any music or TV on.
modelmike Posted March 21, 2012 Posted March 21, 2012 CCR, Vol Beat, The zombies, Jorn, Dio, (((but i like to listen to the music that matches the era of car iam building))))
dustym Posted March 21, 2012 Posted March 21, 2012 Silence. At work I sit about 30 feet away from a Boeing 767 as its being assembled. When I get home, and sit in my garage and build, I want to hear my self think. Tim
crazyjim Posted March 21, 2012 Posted March 21, 2012 Oldies from the '60s, Andrea Bocelli, Katherine Jenkins.

Earl Marischal Posted December 14, 2014 Posted December 14, 2014 Do you listen to music when modelling, or do you prefer silence? I find having the radio on helps me concentrate. It's usually Planet Rock or one of the BBC speech stations. Although if there's a good game on then it could be football. steve steve
Nitrozilla Posted December 14, 2014 Posted December 14, 2014 (edited) Lemme think. David Gilmour, Pink Floyd, Billy Joel, Peter Frampton, Styx, Journey, Eric Clapton, Elton John, Kansas, Alan Parsons, Phil Collins, Genesis and believe it or not, Celtic Woman. Music has been as large a part of my life as modeling is. Edited December 14, 2014 by Nitrozilla
PowerPlant Posted December 14, 2014 Posted December 14, 2014 (edited) Always, and all sort of music, too... For me it's the best way to go through a new album, for example I cannot, however, listen to or watch football games whilst I work on a model, because I get way too excited and distracted LoL Edited December 14, 2014 by PowerPlant
turbo nova Posted December 14, 2014 Posted December 14, 2014 depends on mood, silence or very heavy rock, its usually one or the other. I keep lithium or hair nation on XM at the shop all day
FASTBACK340 Posted December 14, 2014 Posted December 14, 2014 Must have music. I have music at work, car, garage, house and hobby room. Selection ranges from Jazz to Metal. Enter at your own risk.....
FASTBACK340 Posted December 14, 2014 Posted December 14, 2014 (edited) depends on mood, silence or very heavy rock, its usually one or the other. I keep lithium or hair nation on XM at the shop all day I would alternate between Octane, First Wave, Watercolors, Hair Nation, and Liquid Metal. Edited December 14, 2014 by FASTBACK340
zenrat Posted December 14, 2014 Posted December 14, 2014 It's summer. Test cricket makes the perfect soundtrack.
Danny Lectro Posted December 14, 2014 Posted December 14, 2014 I'll either listen to music or podcasts. One of my most prolific model building sessions, I had just gotten into the music of Dr. Steel. I found a great deal of creative energy in his work. When I listen to music at the workbench, I'll pick a consistently strong album or artist, and just lose myself in the music and the work. Most recently, it's been "Heroine" by Lorde, "The Hunting Party" by Linkin Park, "Phase 2" by Daikaiju and "Hesitation Marks" by Nine Inch Nails. I also will listen to audio drama and comedy podcasts, depending on my mood.
Faust Posted December 14, 2014 Posted December 14, 2014 ABSOLUT ELY!! I'm a big metal fan, but that includes hair metal from the 80's so anything from Maiden and early Metallica through the newest European power metal stuff, like Iron Saviour, Jorn, Primal Fear, etc. Of course, Dio, too. Gotta have Dio, especially when working on street vans... I also listen to documentaries on space, archaeology, military history, and sometimes, for shiggles, weird UFO shows. I don't really like sports, but I do like Jim Rome, so I might put him on too, if the mood strikes!
bob terry Posted December 14, 2014 Posted December 14, 2014 Nick Cave, Tool, Puscifer. You know, the old standards. LOL
crazyjim Posted December 14, 2014 Posted December 14, 2014 50's & 60s oldies, Katherine Jenkins, Andrea Bochelli, some classical stuff. All on cd's and played whenever I'm in the shop.
DrKerry Posted December 14, 2014 Posted December 14, 2014 Gotta have tunes on..... Stray Cats, Billy Idol, Maiden, W.A.S. P., Anything metal-rock-blues or 50's music
