Right now, writing a thriller, I'm listening to the soundtrack of the Bourne Supremacy and Bourne Identity. For darker moods, I'll reach for the Silence of the Lambs soundtrack. Then there's my mini Hitchcock collection - the theme from Vertigo, North by North West, and of course Psycho.... Best Ian Hey Eric

Good post. Right now, writing a thriller, I’m listening to the soundtrack of the Bourne Supremacy and Bourne Identity. For darker moods, I’ll reach for the Silence of the Lambs soundtrack. Then there’s my mini Hitchcock collection – the theme from Vertigo, North by North West, and of course Psycho….

Best
Ian

I might throw in a CD of love songs, or listen to 80s music, or jazz. Many times I have to have complete silence, a habit I've developed in my day job.

And if you could put something of your own on, what would it be? Maybe you need to introduce her to some classics. ;) KG, try something a little more low key, if you've got any. SMD, I didn't steal it. It's part of the collective musicalsaurus or something. Post your own version, I'm sure it'll be different. Patty, what does your daughter listen to?

You stole my idea! Lol. Not really. I was just planning to write a blog about writing and music, and any such connection. For me, I either don't listen to music at all, or I'll listen to music that doesn't necessarily grab my attention away from the writing. This means stuff without words. I tend to be greatly influenced by soundtrack composers such as Gregson-Williams, John Williams, Han Zimmer, Danny Elfman, and the like. I also listen to a heck of a lot of classical and modern classical. I'm quite fond of Sibelius, Mahler, Prokofiev, Tchaikovsky (sp?), and a whole sleue of others. It's hard to mention any modern classical composers. I think the orchestrated world has sort of collapsed and not a lot of great names are around anymore. There's Sousa, of course, but not too many others that you could mention in conversation and someone would have heard of (sort of how Mozart works...everyone knows who he is even if they have never heard his compositions).
