What music to listen to while you draw. Can music enhance your artistic creation?

Do you listen to music when you draw? What music to listen to while you draw? Can music enhance your artistic creation?
I would like to think so...hope that any cool music to listen to while you draw would inspire.
Many e-mails I received ask me about do I listen to music while I draw.
Yes, 80% of the time and the other 20% is silent...depending on where I am.

And Specialists from the fields of music, neuroscience, psychology, and neurology describe advances in understanding the complex relationship between music and the brain. Intended for psychologists and neuroscientists, contributions address the origins of music, the musical mind, the neurons of music, musical brain substrates, musical expertise and brain plasticity, and the relation of music to other cognitive domains.

Listening to, in particular, classical and instrumental music, has recently been thought to enhance performance on cognitive tests. Contributors to this volume take a closer look at this assertion and their findings indicate that listening to any music that is personally enjoyable has positive effects on cognition. In addition, the use of music to enhance memory is explored and research suggests that musical recitation enhances the coding of information by activating neural networks in a more united and thus more optimal fashion.

I believe music can be an important inspiration component to infuse your certain element you want to convey (so does silent once in a while). You absorb tones and mostly what I listen to doesn't contain any lyrics because personally it can be distraction so the list of music provided here most of them doesn't have lyrics though some do...occasionally, but some I don't even know what they were talking about and that's good I think...I just absorb their energy and pass along thru my art if needed.

IF ANYONE HAS COOL RECOMMENDATION ABOUT WHAT TO LISTEN TO, FEEL FREE TO POST REPLY ON COMMENT THEN I WILL ADD THEM TO THE LIST.
