Music in the darkroom

[NickTrop]

There are only four bands that produce suitable darkroom music: The Replacements, Gold Motel, The 13th Floor Elevators, or Ultimate Spinach (Mind Flowers). That's it. This music is perfectly suited. No other music is acceptable for the darkroom.

Also, quite a few classical music fans here it seems

My Proton 320 radio ("The Radio") has a burned out dial light (don't they all?).
It'll be perfect for my next darkroom...

I often have music on when I'm working. I use my wireless headphones to listen and block out other sounds. It helps me concentrate by overriding my tinitis.

Mostly a nonspecific rendition of 4′33″.

YES! And you can't repeat it too often...

I am listening to the music during darkroom sessions.
It gives me rhythm... ;-)
I prefer Bebop Jazz style music...

Depending on what's on either radio 4 or radio Scotland.

Kodachrome, Paul Simon.

Good choice! Reminds of one of the best book titles ever: Dizzy Gillespie titled his autobiography:
"To be or not to bop"

Why would I want to drown out the wonderful sound of my print washer with music?

Music is for other times.

I turn my radio on when I first step into the darkroon and have either a classic rock station or a ball game on

Hey! Last Saturday I purchased DUAL turntable and some LPs.
Now I'm not only analog in printing, but on listening also.

I use to listen to a classical radio... but if I can choose, I listen to Sibelius, Bruckner...

And when I'm post procesing in the computer, then Wagner is one of my favs!

 

[Bruno Gracia]

Billie Holiday mostly and 30's&40's music (english and french).

Wagner? Wow, maybe this is what I miss in my post processing workflow

I like Wagner and while I have been scanning and post processing the photos from Sweden I have been listening to Götterdämmerung, the Prologue and then the last act.
