Turn Up The Banjo

I listen to music while I work.  I spend a lot of time working in public places, so a little music to drown out the world is a wonderful thing.  In this context of work, music is a tool to me.  The music I use as a tool can be different than the music I might listen to for fun.  I am always on the search for new music and genres that help me get into a good work flow.  Time and time again bluegrass music keeps coming up as one of the best.  I am grateful that bluegrass music exists and that I have access to it.

I remember the dark days before the internet.  Before the internet we had music we bought and the radio, that was it.  In the past I would have never really had much access to bluegrass music.  Sure country radio would play a bluegrass song now and then.  Radio just isn’t near as conducive to work as internet radio.  Traditional radio has too many commercials, too much talking, and too many interruptions.  I can get a far better flow from the internet radio and music options. 

If I have a lot of writing or coding to do, bluegrass radio on Pandora is my go to music.  It helps me get into flow a bit and anything that helps with that is awesome.  It is not a big thing, but anything that helps me be better, that is something I can be grateful for.
