[Discussion Thread] Music and cubing

[redbeat0222]

I usually listen to dubstep while cubing since It helps me concentrate

 

[Ross The Boss]

I've posted here before but my opinion has changed. When I solve 2x2-3x3 I like to have background noise like a tv or the dish washer running. When I solve anything else, I listen to some music. When I solve I usually listen to any electronic music (dubstep, techno, glitch hop) or metal (usually death core, or heavy metal).
Whatever the music is, it needs to be on the more aggressive side or it distracts me. Like if I were to listen to Mumford and Sons or Pink Floyd, I would pause allot an my turning would get really in accurate. Lol, you'd think it would be the other way around.

I listen to this http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=endscreen&v=iuidANkrY-w&NR=1 while cubing, do you guys listen to music while cubing?

 

[YddEd]

Nope. I always have a radio on for some reason though.

i used to watch tv while cubing, but then we switched cable companies and i haven't gotten around to figuring out this new system so i just started listening to music instead since i found some earphones in my house. although the work it took to get music onto my phone with stupid itunes took way more than getting used to the tv (since from watching other people do it i can now comfortably watch tv) but i just dont want to television any longer.

anyway i dont have specific cubing music, just my normal music, which includes dubstep, house, hip hop, r&b, and sometimes rap, rarely pop. pretty much whatever feels good in my ears. every once in a while i find a nice rock song too.

Not really. Unless my sister listen to music on the computer beside mine.

Have an average of 5/12 whilst listening to Bohemian Rhapsody. See what it does ttimes
Then solve whilst listening to justin bieber. It may be difficult, but it will show your extreme dedication to cubing

I never used to, but I find that I either listen to music, or cube while having a DVD on in the background quite a lot now. It doesn't really affect my times though.

B!tch, please.

I've found that doing BLD with music on has helped memo, but only for 3BLD. Not sure why...

 

[Ross The Boss]

listning to music while doing 3x3 distracts me. big cubes it helps me focus.

 

[speedcuber50]

I find that any kind of background noise when cubing is distracting and I can't concentrate. I like to make cubing a separate activity, rather than doing it while doing something else, like watching TV, as well.

Although sometimes I cube while having a conversation, but the timed solves are kept for a more solitary place .

Cubing Music Thread

Music, is something that I cannot imagine living without. I have music on with almost everything I do. I usually listen to Electronica, Dubstep, Glitch, K-Pop, and Classical. I have a HUGE list, but I'm going to keep it short. I do encourage you to check these out, because people from other forums have seen these and enjoyed it more than I expected. I listen to a lot more K-Pop & Classical than this thread shows, but most people prefer my Dubstep/Electronica/Glitch Lists.

food/drink/ music types?

Mainly what you listen to/drink/eat whilst cubing or any other activity?
Just curious

 

[Nilsibert]

Burial. Mostly because that's one of the artists of which I have a playlist containing of only tracks I like, so I never get the urge to skip one. Don't know if it makes a difference, usually I don't even notice what's on.

 

[loany]

The Dawn.. It's my favourite song
It became my favorite song since the first time heard on www.live4mmo.com and it can calm me down

 

[patrickcuber]

Oldies such as Bob Dylan, Bob Seger, Tom Petty, or maybe Journey.

Bob Dylan Is awsome. I use him too sometimes.

Any pop music helps me practice and get better times.

Some Iron Maiden is pretty good to warm up, then I relax scrambling and solving it over and over listening to Queen. Always.
