Myself… well if I’m mining it will most likely be somethign relaxing i.e. dub (salmonella dub, Black Seeds), classical, podcasts, etc

Ratting, something a bit more upbeat and loud… so out comes the rock and the metal (AC/DC, Iron Maiden, Slipknot, Metallica, Motorhead, Faith No More, Andrew W K, Shihad,…).

Preparing for going out PvPing, well I have a specific playlist all set up….

I guess I’m showing my age through my music choices….

I have the the TV on really low or play some calm music. I like that sound of the lasers as well, soothing some how, sound of isk dripping in.
Quoted you on my page. Liked the meta futuristic essence of your statement.

I mine occasionally or run high-sec exploration sites on my nerdy alt. My tastes in music vary and span 30 years (yeah, in dog years I’m dead). Some bands on the playlist include Assemblage 23, Lycia, Black Tape for a Blue Girl, Delerium, Cocteau Twins, The Cure, The Church, Black Rebel Motorcycle Club, Blue October, Dead Can Dance, Cowboy Junkies, Enigma, Pia, and many more. All depends on what kind of mood I’m in and whether I’m speaking with corpmates or others on Vent. \o/ for my iPod!

I like music fairly loud. However, while I appreciate the contextual mood promoted by the type of music so often used on EVE players’ combat videos, I don’t have a clue how people listen to a steady diet of that stuff. Guess my age is showing–because I was an original punk rocker in the late 70’s/early 80’s and used to crank the volume up on the Sex Pistols, the Dead Boys, and numerous other punk bands with great joy.
