When I am in the mood for music while I am writing, I often turn to classical music or movie soundtracks. However, Two Steps To Hell dominates my favorite playlist. They are an American music production company. Their music is used on many film, trailer, video game and television soundtracks. You also will hear their music on advertisements. It is very dramatic, powerful music, ideal for writing battle scenes. My favorite albums are Invincible, Archangel and SkyWorld. If you want to learn more about them, check out their website.
Sounds good alright! I’ve a tendency to occasionally listen to character-based music, by which I mean a song I feel suits a specific character. Mostly pop / rock / alt / metal. Rarely classical. Those guys sound good. 🙂
Richard,
Indeed, I’ve written a few epic battle scenes to their music as well. 🙂
