Music @ Work

Come to work, enter my office, close and lock the door, check my "sites", turn on my music, start working.

That's been my routine for 7 years where I am now. Some deviations in days where I don't listen to anything at all but for the most part I cannot work without music.


A sampling of albums that I listened to recently is:
  • A Love Supreme - John Coltrane
  • The Fragile - Nine Inch Nails
  • Wrecking Ball - Emmy Lou Harris
  • Psalm 69 - Ministry
  • Hasta La Vista Baby - U2
  • The Fragile (Discs 1 and 2) - Nine Inch Nails
  • It Takes A Nations of Millions To Hold Us Back - Public Enemy
  • Louder Than Love - Soundgarden
  • Body Talk - Robyn
  • Before The Dawn Heals Us - M83
  • Getz/Gilberto - Stan Getz & Joao Gilberto
  • The Dark Side Of The Moon - Pink Floyd
  • and of course, a modified playlist that combines Vince DiCola's score and the 20th Anniversary soundtrack album of TFTM '86, arranged in order of how they are played in the movie
My diverse musical taste reminded me of a line from a Tragically Hip song (hence the title of this thread:

Avoid trends and cliches
Don't try to be up to date

Any of you in your office/workspace listening to music while you waste precious company time trolling these boards too?

My friend in IT says I'm the only person he knows that still uses Window Media Player to listen to music. He also says I shouldn't have ripped 100+ of my CDs onto my workstation .

CDs are what the clock, coasters and necklaces you got off Etsy are made of.

Coincidentally, this is one of my favorite t-shirts that I wear all the time:

Re: Music @ Work

Have a Local station coming thru the phone, not load but background music, it took me few years to convince the owner that it wasn't a "BAD THING".

As for surfing during work I would never do that... oops

Re: Music @ Work

I listen to a bunch of Youtube mixes at work. Anything from Disney music to Skrillex.
