What Music

If any do you listen to while playing chess?
I know this could have gone into Chess or Culture forum.
I listen to Metal, hair, black, whatever. I also like covers.

@Gambrel
Classical music for me.

random tinkling of wind chimes
augmented by intestinal gurglings
the faint scrabbling of tiny claws in the cupboard
and the rhythmic thunder of shotguns in the distance

I only make about a dozen chess moves a day. Music may disturb my concentration, but I listen nevertheless. If I didn’t listen while playing, I think my rating would be nearer 1400 or 1500.

The harmony of the spheres.

I learned at some point that music played in public places such as stores and elevators is called 'muzak' - but that was before the modern 'dunka-dunka-dunka' music took over. It was meant to make us relax, not getting out as soon as possible.
