Your Personal Soundtrack

Sunday A.M. - Gospel Bluegrass; Bluegrass; Alternative Country/Americana.

Reggae or some upbeat Pop or Rock - for Working in the house

Wehn writing/working where concentration is important - Smooth Jazz or Classical; or some other non verbalizing audio.

Dinner time - contemporary jazz; Jazz vocalists

Just for fun - Blues; Folk; Country; Various Jazz; Alt Contry; Alt Rock..

When angry - metal; hard Rock.... loud... but usually on a second or third system.

Falling asleep..."Stars of the Lid" a station I set up on Pandora named after the duo's band. Evenings..."What Your Soul Sings" another Pandora station named after a track by Massive Attack.

Hope you will check them out.

Reggae is great while trying to get things done around the house. Bob Marley or compilation cds to keep away monotony.

@Ghosthouse: Ahhhh....yes, Sir. "What Your Soul Sings" is good stuff.... ;)

"At any given point, music is playing around me" EXACTLY!

After all these years of music and audio, however, I still haven't achieved it. But here are a few ideas:

Early Morning

CPE Bach

Gym

Earth Wind and Fire
Isley Brothers
Jamiroquoi

Studying/Working

Looking for suggestions here, but have also experimented with nature recordings for more interesting "white noise"

Falling Asleep

Keith Jarret Facing You

Any Time

Miles Davis - Kind of Blue
Pink Floyd

Driving

A great activity for music where I need to think more....

What we are trying to get at here is not just "Oh I like smooth jazz with my Starbucks" type of suggestions,

but how you specifically incorporate really great, timeless classics or destined to become classic music into the soundtrack for your life.
