I want to draw the music of Battles but I don't know where to start.

Interpol all the way.

Sometimes chilled blues and soul too.

Anyone else use lastfm? Works a treat to just let stuff play and hear new stuff.

music

Mine are Prefuse 73, Amon Tobin and Tipper.

I actually made pieces on the first two names mentioned.

hmmm...

Radiohead, Bonobo, Beirut, Bjork and Broken Social Scene and Portsihead are my musics of inspiration or better yet on in the background whilst working or reading

the bird and the bee, sufjan stevens, catpower, joanna newsom, aphex twin for now are my inspiration.

Another great artist is Bat for Lashes. I just got her record for christmas and its amazing!

I really enjoy Patrick Wolf, I think his music is really creative and fun which inspires me. I also like explosions in the sky, album leaf and more louder stuff like maccabees and good shoes.

When I'm drawing or painting I like to listen to Placebo, The Cure, Tiesto, Sven Vath, Royksopp, Katy Rose, She Wants Revenge, and Bloc Party.

So much good music at the moment here in australia. To name a few: Damn Arms, Cut Copy, The Presets, Dappled Cities Fly, Architecture in Helsinki, Dardanelles, Gotye, The Grates, Liam Finn, Midnight Juggernauts, Muscles, Sarah Blasko, Silverchair, Young and Restless.
You should all check them out, there good, real good

at the moment it's Interpol, Daft Punk, Damien Rice and Cass McCombs <3 x

Tom Waits, Antony And The Johnons, Coco Rosie, Joshua Redman, Sex Mob... also many jazz music.

Rifu, Black Keys, Propagandhi, Mad Capsule Markets, King Tubby.

lifesavas, kasabian, massive attack and t.i

DJ Format, DJ Shadow, Royksopp, Air, Prefuse 73... at the moment...

Muse and vintage Bowie at the moment.

If I'm feeling 'dark' sometimes listen to eminem's early stuff!

I like to play a rock live on screen while painting,it made me really into the rock mood,Currently,Oasis and Pink Floyd.

And in my ipod there r scissor sisters,red paintings,placebo,pixies,beck,sigur ros,strokes,the beautiful south,dresden dolls...

Thanx to the musicians,no music no work!

trinity roots, a band from new zealand... they don't play together anymore but they're great

I'm usually into thrash metal and the like but when im working abit of Jeff Buckley ALWAYS inspires me. Stuff like Isis, A perfect circle, Aerogramme (RIP), Radiohead, Interpol..... anything that chills me out. I think we're all in agreement that a chillout vibe is the best creative atmosphere to work in!

i wrote my dissertation on The relationship between Music and Visual Arts, playing the piano and the guitar before working during and after pretty much lets me relax and inspires me.
I like to listen to anything while working, theres a few i aways seem to come back to tho, like The Postal Service, Sufjan Stevens, Owen, The Smiths,  Justin Rutledge, Modest Mouse, Jack's Mannequin, Shout Out Louds, Spinto Band, The Cure, Death cab, etc etc etc
