Work Tunes - What do you listen to?

[TomIre]

My music tastes seem not to have changed since I was 19!

I have the original 3M worktunes with FM radio I have used for a few years.

Just purchased the Bluetooth model with no radio. Lately I have set my Pandora channels to shuffle.

I usually fire up a cajun radio station. Can't understand a word they're saying, but I like the music. Keeps me working.

I truly enjoy Cajun music, in French or English. Looks like we may have a project in New Orleans this spring, not far from Cafe Du Monde... Love that place.

I am a huge fan of Post Modern Jukebox (PMJ).

They play a lot of 'today's music' BUT in 'yesterday's' styles.

"Sweet Child of Mine" as 1930s New Orleans jazz... good Lord, I could go on & on about the different versions/styles of combinations they come up with.

Try this one: Just Like Heaven - Vintage Glenn Miller - Style The Cure Cover ft. Natalie Angst - YouTube

PMJ tours too... I'll be seeing them, for the third time, this October in the Gold Coast, QLD!

I hate to break it to you, but Guns n' Roses isn't exactly "today's" music, it's 30 year old!

I listen to NPR when working, my brain needs a constant stream of information.

I don't subscribe to youtube but they seem to be great at playing streaming music that they know I like. Sometimes I broadcast it on a Ramsey FM transmitter, so I can listen on my Work Tunes Gear.

NPR puts me right to sleep. Too dry for my taste.

Usually, it's either our local Top 40 station (I'm in my late 60s, but I still enjoy a lot of today's music even if I don't know who 2/3 of the artists are) or a custom mix from a freeware jukebox program I run on the computer in my shop.

The older I've gotten, the more I enjoy silence...definitely when I'm trying to concentrate, but even other times the sounds of nature are plenty for me

Now you're talkin!

(I can't understand you, but your talkin! :laughing

I first listened to cajun music during the movie Southern Comfort. Great movie.
Southern Comfort (1981 film) - Wikipedia

Here's one tune that was also in that movie.

....
Might have to experiment. Is cajun available on Sirius? Tidal?

I do no know. I don't subscribe to any music services.

I enjoy the sound of our SW winds blowing thru the pines. Otherwise its got to be country. Statlers, Oak Ridge Boys, Alabama, etc. Maybe even a little - Guns & Roses.......

Ditto.....on the "SW winds blowing thru the pines".
I do not need background racket to keep me happy!
