[Samania]

Its up to preference. Theres no music that "works best". I usually listen to piano covers of my favorite songs, or Eminem. I just can't stand Country Music >=(

Same here, country music sucks.

I find rap/hip-hop/pop music works great for me because it usually has a pretty fast tempo and a good solid base line. For example, in my YouTube playlist I have Not Afraid, We are young, love the way you lie, fire burning, firework, etc.

Techno works well for me, as does rap (specifically Tech N9ne) or most metal.

[Jukuren]

[musicninja17]

yes plz threadmerge. Cube to whatever you like. There is no good or bad, it's what you can tolerate. Ex: i'm not cubing to christmas music because it annoys me. So why would this be beneficial to me?

Tron: Legacy Soundtrack - Daft Punk

Nicest cubing session Ive had

 

[DeathCuberK]

Buckethead.
Need a slow, casual cubing session? He has some nice, melodic guitar tunes.
Need a fast, intense speedcubing session? Listen to his heavy metal.

 

[Rpotts]

Philip Glass - In The Upper Room Dance IX

 

[Weston]

I like to listen to 4'33 when I cube.

I lol'd.

I never used to listen to music while cubing, figuring the lyrics would distract me, but one time I tried listing to Mein Herz Brennt by Rammstein, to get my fingers moving. Broke all my PBs, lol.

 

[Whyusosrs?]

Brown noise or white noise.

I second this notion! That's exactly what I do when I cube haha. Buckethead is so underrated. Like you suggest in your post, his music spans such a wide range of styles.
