Just a random question, but what kinda music do you guys play while working on a design? do you get inspired by whats playing?
Personally im mostly working on nice mellow urban designs so a nice instrumental selection does me fine, ie 9th Wonder, MF Doof, Dj Premier, Nicoly...
But when im feeling experimental i noticed i usualy play more rock / punk / electro
Zero 7 & Frou Frou are good if you got designers block....

check out the Nujabes mix I posted in the FMT thread this week, that's exactly what I love to listen to when working...

Instrumental works best for me.
Not to sound cliche - the soundtrack to Amelie really does it. I can work a steady few hours with it playing.

alot of times I make sure theres no much playing. Just because, like you mentioned, it can unknowingly influence your work and such forth.
If Im just messing around on the computer can be anything form 80's darkwave thru idm / punk / hiphop / classical / anything really.
Shoutcast has some great stations now as well to listen to newer stuff from any genre.

I listen to all different types, especially majestic, instrumental music. Lots of classical stuff is great. There are too many to name here. Soundtracks to movies are definitely a good idea too.

Listen 2 both of these tracks, they never get boring for me. Love them in the morning while driving.
