[Discussion Thread] Music and cubing

I listen to music, since it gets me going faster, just so I can get used to going fast. Normally after I've listened to music and have been getting good averages, I can do better than before, without music.

Darude - Sandstorm. Over and over and over...

i like listening to Linkin Park's songs while speedcubing(espeacially faint and from the inside)

Your not allowed to do it in competitions, so why do it while practicing. This was already discussed I believe.

Hardcore & Freeform at >200 BPM. DJ Judas and DJ Hellfury are some good ones.

I listen to anything that pleases my ears at the time. Whether it may be an old lady screaming, some techno, country, to metal as long as it pleases my ears I don't care what I listen to as long as it's good at that time.

I like to Listen to really up beat music. Usually hip-hop and pop.

Bring me the Horizon, The Ready Set, Nickasaur!, and anime soundtracks.

I usually listen to Daft Punk or really up-beat rock. It puts you into a great rhythm...

Wow I am so shocked that a fellow cuber listens to Nickasaur too. I usually do not listen to music like his, but I like the beat and his lyrics

For 3x3 and 2x2, I listen to rock (I ONLY listen to rock). For any cube larger, music screws up my look ahead, making my times likes 30 seconds slower.
