I don't have specific music for when I'm writing. I'm usually listening to the same playlist or 'artist' before I arrive at the computer as when I'm walking somewhere after leaving the computer.
The youth is hungry for good music; I feel responsible and glad that I can be an agent who can mentally, emotionally stimulate them to listen to music outside of cinema.
Music always stimulates my imagination. When I'm writing I usually have some Baroque music on low in the background chamber music by Bach, Telemann, and the like.
I don't like listening to records a lot after they're done. There's just no real nourishment there for me.
Sometimes to get in the "musical mood," I'll just turn on music really loud, or go drive around and listen to music, or learn a song that I really like on guitar or piano. That gets me in the right frame of mind to proceed.
I write to music, so every script I have has its own playlist. Music just opens me up to the emotions that I'm writing.
I can't usually sleep if I'm listening to music. It seems to fire up my mind, and I keep engaging with it to see what it's doing.
I couldn't imagine a day without music. It relaxes and stimulates me in equal measure and I hate the sound of silence - the concept, I mean, not the track by Simon and Garfunkel.
I've always liked pop music. I love what it does to my brain, and I've shut it out for a long time.
I wanted a physical kick in the music. I wanted it to be stimulating.
Music and space collide for me, as I find them incredibly stimulating.
I basically am always chasing this super enhanced stimulation from music.
