I like the sound of the ocean in the background.

I have recording equipment and samplers. I made my own, forever looping rain and ocean sounds. All made from my own recordings. When I feel particularly 'phantom of the operaish', I can fire up the keyboards and play my own rains, storms and crashing oceans.

I have a lot of fun with that kind of thing too. I code my own sound generators and audio effects, and can lose myself for hours creating weird phasing and beat frequencies with a bank of oscillators. My go to "phantom of the opera" set up is a virtual Hammond organ + Leslie cab and a big cathedral reverb - super ominous!

there is this new age bookstore near where I live, upstair in a loft lit by prismatic dancing light is a pyramid with a bed underneath of it and in each corner a quadraphonic speaker driven by a vintage multichannel white/pink/brown noise generator. wish they'd sell that apparatus to me. one is put into an altered state of mind lying on that bed underneath that pyramid.

I can't handle music when i'm driving unless it's classical. any other kind makes me be-bop along until I crash into a tree. :oops: like it hijacks my mental processing necessary for proper driving.


you mean like this? Ok, so it wasn't music related but a tree was still involved so I think it still counts.
