Yeah, Noctura is another one. It's kind of Evanescence sounding music, some former members from Evanescence wound up in the bands.

Most of my "work time" is actually getting to the printer that needs to be fixed. It's usually like half an hour to an hour of driving, 5-15 min of walking to/through buildings to the printer, and then usually 10-15 min actually working on the printer, unless it's an older machine and I haven't done the "usual" fixes on it yet.

It was Clint Eastwood that got me hooked on Gorillaz. And Twenty One Pilots showed up one day in my "Musical Comedy" station with some of the Suicide Squad soundtrack. I think that's the first time I've ever watched a movie because of the soundtrack. Once I got listening to Twenty One Pilots, I realized the two bands were kinda similar, and threw them into a station. It gets some pretty good other bands as well - a quick look at the history shows Panic! At the Disco, RJD2, Fatboy Slim, Modest Mouse, and Cake, in reverse order. The Musical Comedy station is pretty good too when you need something to lighten the mood in your head - Bo Burnham is pretty funny and a pretty decent musician.

That makes sense. For most of my work I don't need to hear anything and sometimes the work can become boring so having some upbeat music helps me.

Gorillaz is an awesome band, really liked Feel Good Inc.

I gotta add to this - I've loved Gorillaz for the longest time, and I admit they're the only group that I actually buy music from (:heh:) and in physical form (CDs). I can't even remember where I discovered them. I know the first track I heard from them was Feel Good Inc. They've finally come back after about 6 years and released a single:

If you like Gorillaz, check out Deltron 3030, it's a lot of the same guys.

I'm not sure I care for the new Gorillaz song. It's a bit too political for my tastes, and for some reason it reminds me of Sinatra's My Way.

I listened to that while at work. Great mix and even auto started the next one. Good thing I was on WiFi the whole time I was on that site.

Listening to this mix while currently working.

Not too crazy fast since I have a slight headache from sweating my balls off and then later having a few beers from last night, so decently dehydrated.... I haven't had drop of alcohol in I think 5 months? I'm not much of a drinker as you can tell :heh:

When I was working at my computer I was listening to some A7X. Then some classical.

I don't really hate any particular genre. My friends will be in the car and it'll go from rock->metal->dance->country->alternative->classical etc and they'll be like WTF?  :laugh:

Haha nice. What classical tracks were you listening to? I used to listen them a lot in the past, that and symphonies from the 90's like some of Jeremy Soule's earlier work. This was my favorite composure he had https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lA-iag83kQc

This album is pretty nice. Definitely influenced by the likes of AC/DC.
https://youtu.be/n4E4kjQIw6M

The first track "Get Out" sometimes is my focus song. Just blast it on repeat when I need to smash through a project.
