Writing Music Playlist

So the other day on Twitter [you can follow me: @GoIntoTheStory], we got into a discussion about music and @MatthewMilam tweeted:

@BittrScrptReadr @GoIntoTheStory I’m surprised you guys don’t publish on your blogs a writer’s playlist.

You know what? That’s a great idea.

Me? When my butt is in the chair and I’m actually writing script pages, I can only listen to instrumental music. Here are a few of my favorites:

“The Shawshank Redemption” [soundtrack] by Thomas Newman

“The Intercontinentals” by Bill Frissell

“Le Pas Du Chat Noir” by Anouar Brahem

“Short Trip Home” by Joshua Bell, Edgar Meyer, Sam Bush, and Mike Marshall

“What Goes Around” by Shadowfax

“The Brandeburg Concertos”

Then when I need to get my ass out of the chair and… well, I can’t say dance, but at least bounce around, to shake loose the cobwebs or just get me fired up to write, here are a few of my favorites:

“Crossroads” by Cream

“Jumping Jack Flash” by the Rolling Stones

“Mississippi Queen” by Mountain

“I’m Going Down” by Freddie King

“Revolution” by The Beatles

“I’ll Stick Around” by the Foo Fighters

“Voodoo Child (Slight Return)” by Jimi Hendrix

“Rocking in the Free World” by Neil Young

“Smells Like Teen Spirit” by Nirvana

“Blackout of Gretely” by Gonn

What is your writing music playlist?
