I can’t listen to music with vocals when I work for one simple reason: I will invariably start singing along, possibly even dancing, and that has a tendency to interfere with getting my work done :D

But you won’t catch me listening to soundtracks for enhancing the mood of what I’m writing. Instead, I’m usually listening to female vocalists and pop music. Logic comes too easily to me, being a mathematician by education and a computer engineer by trade, and I need something to jolt my brain into the creative realm. Listening to music that is almost at odds with the setting and the mood of what I’m writing helps me think of what else might be going on in the story in addition to the logical consequences.

I have a section of my notebook reserved specifically for strange things I observe while around other people, haha.

I don’t listen to much music while I write, when I do it’s a lot like these with a bit of Massive Attack thrown in. I spend a lot of my time writing in public and am mostly inspired by the conversations and actions of people around me. I should add these songs to my mp3 player, though. Just in case ;)

Unbreakable has an excellent soundtrack, as does X-Men First class :D I haven’t tried out those others you mentioned, though–excellent! It’ll be nice to have some new material to listen to while writing.

Thanks for the comment, and best of luck on your WIP! :)

I use soundtracks and instrumentals more than anything. For my current WIP I’ve used music from Unbreakable, Hancock, Buffy, and Avengers. I’m already using songs from Inception, X-Men: First Class, and The Village while I outline the sequel. The right song helps me set the tone and rhythm of a scene, and it’s great for visualizing and choreographing action. Building project soundtracks is one of my favorite parts of writing :)
