Rock/Classic Rock/Metal. My all time favorite music. I love the stuff my parents used to listen to: Lynyrd Skynyrd, AC/DC, George Thorogood. I also love all the 80's metal that my parents hate: Metallica, Guns N Roses, Motley Crue. I love 90's rock/alternative: Nirvana, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Bush. And I love current rock/metal. Favorites: Disturbed, System of a Down, Avenged Sevenfold. I love rocking out when I write, it makes me feel so powerful.
Contemporary Classical. This is one style of music that I have been really into lately. Depending on my mood, it is one of the things I like to listen to when I write. I don't know if it's the actual name of a genre or not, but that's what I'm calling it because that's the only thing I can think of that fits, though it is an oxymoron. It's instrumentals that are new. One of my favorites is the Trans-Siberian Orchestra. I also like Lindsey Stirling, the Piano Guys, and David Garrett. Film scores are a lot of fun to listen to as well, particularly Pirates of the Caribbean. I put on my headphones and I am taken away, suddenly my fingers are spilling my soul onto paper. My 19 year old sister makes fun of me for listening to "old people music" but I don't care.
Pop. This mood strikes me occasionally when I am feeling playful. I don't like all pop, actually I think most of it is crap but there are a few exceptions. I am a fan of Rihanna, I also like Kesha, Katy Perry and Lady Gaga. That about covers it, and while it inspires me, I end up dancing in my seat more than I do writing. At least it keeps my tuchus from falling asleep.
What kind of music inspires you?
