Arthur Verocai’s ( Spotify / Apple Music / Amazon Music) self-titled record also keeps me productive (although it’s far too fleeting of an album). Those last two are really feel-good artists for me to put on. To that end, I’ve also been sticking with Yura Yura Teikoku’s ( Spotify / Apple Music) catalog, as well as mei ehara ( Spotify / Apple Music / Amazon Music) and Lamp ( Spotify / Apple Music / Amazon Music). Cornelius ( Spotify / Apple Music / Amazon Music) is great because it’s mostly instrumental, and what spoken word there is, I can’t understand since it’s Japanese. For instrumental, I usually rely heavily on Tortoise ( Spotify / Apple Music / Amazon Music), Jamie XX ( Spotify / Apple Music / Amazon Music), and video game soundtracks. Otherwise, to stay focused I’ve got to listen to either instrumental music, or music sung in a different language.

So bands like Dirty Projectors ( Spotify / Apple Music / Amazon Music), Talk Talk ( Spotify / Apple Music / Amazon Music), and TV on the Radio ( Spotify / Apple Music / Amazon Music) have recently been great to listen to. There are exceptions, though, like if a singer really twists words around in an interesting way. As an English speaker, I think in English, so it’s like having another person in my head. More often than not, I can’t concentrate on work if I’m listening to music that’s sung in English. Barbara Krasnoff, Reviews editor Stay away from English If I’m working on something that needs a lot of concentration, then I may segue to a classical music station on Spotify, but musicals cheer me up and keep me alert, which is something that is always helpful these days. My favorites are Sondheim, Bernstein, and Gilbert and Sullivan (okay, they’re officially operetta, but let’s not nitpick), but I’ll also go for Irving Berlin, George Gershwin ( Porgy and Bess: musical, operetta, or opera?), Kurt Weill, Rogers and Hart, and Lin-Manuel Miranda. In the afternoon, I might choose from a whole range of musical genres, but my main thing is (yes, I admit it) Broadway musicals ( Spotify / Apple Music / Amazon Music). He’s a sane voice in an insane world, so I find him very comforting. He deals with both local and national issues, but always makes them relevant to his NYC audience. He’s my favorite political commentator he is laid back and non-confrontational, and open to opposing opinions while making his own very clear when necessary. In the morning, I listen to the Brian Lehrer Show on my local NPR station.

Complex pieces, particularly ones with involved edits, usually call for something like Philip Glass or Steve Reich: repetitive, rhythmic, deliberate, satisfying. In fact, I tend to rely on metal if I have to bang something out as quickly as possible. If I have written a particularly aggro piece, odds are I was listening to Appetite for Destruction ( Spotify / Apple Music / Amazon Music), Ride the Lightning ( Spotify / Apple Music / Amazon Music), or Cowboys from Hell ( Spotify / Apple Music / Amazon Music). When I write, I tend to adopt the mood and rhythm of whatever I’m listening to.
