I write some music and been playing in bands for years, but I can't stand having music in the background (decent OSTs and a few others are excluded from this classification, as they are there for a reason and I'm listening actively). in fact, I very, very rarely listen to music. when I do, it's either because I know exactly what I want to listen or because I'm searching new music. I recently discovered I have a tendency to unconsciously listen to everything around me and analyze it, aggravating my mental fatigue. now I try to be careful and avoid doing that.
