    I love everyone's contributions to this thread. Keep going! We all have different preferences and it is nice to be inspired in different ways sometimes.

    I have been doing my recent POI designing to:



    I have no idea what he is saying(so if it is inappropriate, sorry!) :oops:

    Still, pretty nifty.

    I listened to the whole song and it really got me in the writing mood. Have you ever heard Porcupine tree? They are another band that I listen to all the time

    I've not been playing any Empy as S1 has just totally blown it out of the water, still reaching for the limits but the creative freedom is unparalleled!
    Listening to lots of Carbon Based Lifeforms, and it seems to be working!

    started with the Krait, moved on to Mephistopheles, now Leviathan is in the Space Moles' S1 Shipyard...

    I tend to listen to more violent/heavy/fast stuff but here's some electronic stuff I find good for imagination.
    I really liked that Radioactive Sandwich band btw.






    (Couldn't find the full version)

    I listen to a lot of playlists while I'm building junk, but I particularly like Smooth McGroove's playlist.

    I find this piece particularly appropriate for Empyrion when trying to fit corners and bevels together just so....

    I conjure thee back into existence! Rise, thread of threads, inspiration, and motivation!

    The Smooth McGroove reference got me thinking about these:





    The second is a tad halting in places, but it is nice and 30 minutes worth.


    Then there is:



    Which is just unrelenting trance. Sometimes welcome.


    Related to a post on the first page, is:




    and





    From my childhood of loving percussion/perc. ensembles comes some African drumming(with a little augmentation - Thunderdrums is a very interesting CD/compilation if you are ever seeking something different)




    Lastly, there are builds where music is not quite right, but ya need a lil somthin:

    This might sound horrible, but I sometimes listen to the Rimworld soundtrack by Alistair Lindsay. I liked it so much, I bought both of the CDs. Should I feel guilty listening to another video game's soundtrack while playing Empyrion?



    Otherwise, I shuffle play my music collection.

    Edit: Original video went away. Updated to newer video.

    I know, I hate all the youtube embeds in threads, why can't people just name the song and artist?? If someone wants to listen to it, most folks know how to copy and paste to a search engine.:)
