The sounds I hear when writing play a very big role in my work. Most times, I can't write if there are lyrics in a song, because then I can't hear my own thoughts. I can handle the ambiance of a cafe, as most conversations drown each other out with the help of the occasional coffee grinder. What I like most of all are great albums that I can just plug and play to really get me into the zone. It's taken me a long time to find these albums, but here are ten that I would love to share with you. I hope these beautiful sounds help you communicate your message as much as they have helped me.
