So, I was wondering do you guys use music to influence your writing? Personally I do not only roleplay but also write stories and I find that while the task is quite fluid and natural under the right conditions, it is almost unsurmountable without music. Even if you have the WRONG music, it is still better than no musc. And what music do you use if you do use music? (say that 5 times fast) I find that while the music influences me much more when there are words, the actual words do not influence me. For example a guitar playing is influential, but a guitar and a sad voice is much more so, and whther he is singing about love, comedy, or violence, as long as his voice is sad I can wield it to write sad shit. Of couse that is only up to a point and what really influences me is how the song expotentialy strikes me subcociously whether that be due to words, instruments, or personal experience.

I usually listen to indie while trying to write, Indie or the band "The Postal Service" I don't know why but their songs inspire me...

Yeah inspiration comes in the wierdest places for me, like battle scenes. If I'm doing something that is purly action, blow his head off with a shotgun kind of stuff with no other meaning (I tend not to do this but still) the ideal song is a rather stupid cover of Crazy Little Thing Called love by Micheall Buble or stuff of similar type. I do not know why by all rights it should make me want to write Love scenes but whatever. (And that's jut the beginning music influences me in the strangest ways.)
I checked out Postal Service pretty good. They remind me of Pual Simon with a wierd twist.

I don't listen to music. That entire Ramundi history was done in about an hour. I didn't listen to any music, though.
