Wow i've never heard of something like that before. I wonder how much the music actually affects your writing.

The "white noise" stuff (instrumentals, etc.) definitely helps me focus on my work. The Hanna soundtrack, which is all by one artist, had the perfect atmosphere: creepy, playful, surreal. It helped get me in the right mindset.

Fight Night was your standard random movie songs, and I think it might have hurt more than helped. Each song was different enough to draw my attention, and by the time I managed to wrap up the story, I dreaded listening to the opening of "Bad Bad Love." No offense, Alexander. ;)
