Space Cadet Posted December 13, 2009 Share Posted December 13, 2009 This, all in all, has been one of the crappier days in my entire life. Now I have a lot of work to do, and I feel awful and I can't concentrate, and it's too quiet, and I can't just go hug my cat and feel better because she's gone as of this morning. Anyone have any good suggestions of things to listen to to fill the deafening silence? Preferably with a good thump to it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Space Cadet Posted December 13, 2009 Author Share Posted December 13, 2009 I don't want to feel better. I don't want to laugh. And Radiohead is my mood neutral- not so good for worst days ever....

Space Cadet Posted December 13, 2009 Author Share Posted December 13, 2009 ^Not too bad. :shrug: Anyone know any good house music? :dance: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reilly Posted December 13, 2009 Share Posted December 13, 2009 Minimal techno, Nathan Fake or something. Its good because those mixes can go on for 7-10mins, have a nice beat, and can keep you focussed on your work instead of the music.i I find music with lyrics tends to make my concentration drift, words in a song can get muddled with words youre trying to read. Even if its not your kinda music, give it a go. [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gYWox2ONf84]YouTube- Nathan Fake - The Sky Was Pink[/ame] I dont know what you meant by what work you have to do, but if its studying or something, this works really well for me. If it's too soft to make you feel anything or even realise its playing, you can get more of a 'thump' out of soft d'n'b: [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A090gqf0in8]YouTube- T Tech - Essence[/ame] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest howyousawtheworld Posted December 13, 2009 Share Posted December 13, 2009 The Noel Gallagher piece was originally written by him in 1997 but was sampled by Ian Brown in 2004 for his song Keep What You've Got where it was heard for the first time. Used more recently in the recent X Files Movie a couple of years back Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reilly Posted December 13, 2009 Share Posted December 13, 2009 After a while of listening to techno you begin to pick up on what you like and what you dont within seconds of listening to a beat, so it becomes trial and error. Four Tet which was mentioned on this page is another quality artist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Space Cadet Posted December 13, 2009 Author Share Posted December 13, 2009 ^^^Love Noel's Chemical Brothers songs. And quite liking one of the Album leaf tracks. But would someone please explain why Pink Floyd makes my ADD worse? :confused: ^Like Four Tet. (LOVE Burial- been listening to him all afternoon.) Yeah, I'm picky. And know fast. I just find enough I don't like in a hurry that I tend to give up fast too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
