Same Here. RADIO, Tuned to Classical station. BUT I also have a selection of other music (C.D's) such as Light Jazz or New Age set aside for when I get tired of listening to Classical. example: Herb Albert, Chuck Mangione, Govi, Native American , And some other stuff whose titles currently evade my memory. So That is my selection. BUT sometimes it will include Big-Band Music, i.e. Glen Miller.

I just found an internet radio station at launch.com that has show tunes and movie soundtracks. I am enjoying it.

Really fast music with a good beat.
We all know what Wolf leader's wife listens to. Screams of his pain after rushing him to the emergency room after another Dremel tool accident :-) :-) :-) :-)

Rock, Heavy Metal, Some type of music that is fast, heavy on the instruments....
Static X, Korn, Godsmack....... to name a few...
For me, it must make the blood move to get into a motivated state of mind....

My last productive session started off with marching songs of Le Legion Etranger (the French Foreign Legion), follwed by Mob Hits. I don't know how they relate, I was painting a Fallschirmjager bust. The key was to keep the TV and Computer in the OFF position!

My all time favorite modeling music is Southside Johnny's Better Days CD. Maybe it's the anthemic "I been workin' too hard...gotta get just a little bit outa control" that spurs on the superdetailling. And when I want some praise, he sings "Can I get witness?"

I usually listen to country when I'm modelling....Merle Haggard is always a good choice for me anyways.
Sometimes if I'm trying to get in the mood of the piece I'm working on, I play a tape my ex mother in law made for me of all WWII era songs....and it does help believe it or not!!! She was a good mother in law....even cut out an ad in our local newspaper about a model swap meet that was coming up.....I sure do miss her

Usually, I just humm to myself, one martial song or another. I also like listening to the Eagles though, and recently, I have enjoyed the soundtrack to the movie The Royal Tannenbaums. It has the song off that Charlie Brown Christmas show (:-)

My musical interests are varied.I listen to classical and hum,listen to meatal and I tap my foot and do the occassional drumroll,listen to country and sing,listen to classic rock and snooze,listen to hip hop and scream,listen to rap and try to superglue my ears shut.There is so much music and so many emotions to go with them.I generally don't get to listen to what I want(my workbench is the kitchen table)so I keep alot of superglue and acetone on hand.My throat is usually horse by the end of the day,because the only radio station my wife puts on is top 40,and I'm screaming because of the music or because the superglue is stinging 56 songs out of 57.I need to get my own CD walkman,so she can yell her head off trying to get me to hear her.That would be worth the price of admission.

Milwaukee Brewers baseball on AM (Gotta love Bob Ucker callin' a game in the summer). But I sure wish I could get the Twins instead. I pretty much listen to AM talk radio while building, a lot of non-sense keeps me focused on what I'm doing.

Generally I put on some classic rock when buiding, I especially enjoy Boston, Journey, and the Eagles but anything in that vein will do.

hey
Yip...I have to agree with lifestyle and Rtwpsom2!!!...there is nothing better than putting on some Ministry of sound or trance or some sweet hardhouse!...then Dre or some Cypress Hill maby Redman or methodman (How High Soundtrack...sweet stuff)...and if you dont like that you need some Limp Bizkit!
Nothing better than locking myself away in the mad lab with some sweet beats and a couple of hours to kill...
I love my music more than anything eles...well maby there is one thing thats better :-) ...but thats beside the point!...music is my life!

Depends. I have a folding card table that I use if there are any sports on t.v. that I can watch while modelling. Therefore, no music.
However, if I am in my modelling room. I usually listening to something from Ministry of Sound series of cd's, DJ Ferry Corsten, DJ Micro, .....trance stuff in other words. However, I do listen to a lot of classic rock as well, Stones, Who, Doors, Zeppelin. Also, soundtracks like Thin Red Line, Braveheart, Conan the Barbarian, etc.
