Music plays as I wash dishes, do laundry and clean the house. It is my traveling companion as I drive. And often playlists run while I write. Music can be bubble gum for my brain, sweet and non-demanding, it allows my mind to relax from the rigors of serious thought.
At its best music can inspire and guide my writing, helping to develop an atmosphere as I write. Then there are the times when serendipity intervenes, and a song inspires an amazing turn of phrase that makes your writing amazing. Other times silence is the order of the day.
What background audio frames your writing time?

It depends on the music and what I am doing. The volume is often of little consequence.

I listen to rock or classical when I paint watercolours. Music works for me in this way 🙂

Two of my favorite genres. I believe all creativity originates from a source and we can learn to access it. Glad you have found an entry that works for you.

I enjoy a playlist with a steady beat like Kygo summer beats, Ghibli studio on Youtube as I study or write. Keeps me in a good flow of productivity 🙂
