Every day when I wake up, my routine goes exactly like this: Walk downstairs, turn on computer, walk into kitchen, make coffee, sit down at computer, light a cigarette and either open up Winamp or Pandora. Music is a must when I sit down at the computer and start in on my workload for the day--or night, depending on when I wake up because I am infamous for having a severely messed up, often backwards sleeping schedule. Even before I can open up a browser and start clicking around on the internet, I need music playing. Mostly, it's background noise and not something I am consciously paying attention to the entire time I work. A lot of people who work from home have the television on all day as background noise, but television distracts me and isn't something I can just leave on in the background while I attempt to work--unless I'm procrastinating and really don't feel like doing anything I'm supposed to be doing that day.
Just a little while ago I was sitting here going through my music, trying to decide if it was a random Pandora music night or a Winamp shuffle kind of night. I logged into Last.fm, which is awesome for finding new music if you've been letting Last.fm scrobble your music selection from your computer (like with Winamp) because it gives you recommendations based on music you've been listening to. They also give you a rundown of your top artists and tracks for either the last 7 days, 3 months, 6 months, 12 months and overall. So I thought I'd share some of my top tracks with all of you. Feel free to recommend some of your favorite music in the comments because I'm always, always, always looking for new stuff to listen to.
A Fine Frenzy - Stood Up
The Honorary Title - Stay Away
Eisley - I Wasn't Prepared
The Format - Oceans
Adele - Hometown Glory
