what songs inspire you when writing?

[Dan The Lefty]

I've actually gotten a lot of inspiration from listening to Elvenking. Sublime is also really good for getting me into a creative mood.

I usually go with anime themes, but only when drawing.

[Mangaka2170]

I have this seemingly random mix of wartime jazz, '60s pop, a little classic R&B, rock & roll and more anime soundtracks than I know what to do with playing in the background while I'm drawing (I've found that singing along with lyrics does more for morale than taking any number of frequent breaks that invariably end up going too long). A few that really get me going:

Stand up to the Victory - Victory Gundam
Winners Forever - Victory Gundam
Anime ja Nai - Double Zeta Gundam
Shine in the Storm - The 08th MS Team
Anna ni Issho Datta no ni - Gundam SEED
Meteor - Gundam SEED
The Real Folk Blues - Cowboy Bebop
Torukia - Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex
Run Rabbit Junk - Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex
Ningyo Hime - Chobits

I always love to write while listening to rap music or rnb:

Right now, my speakers are blasting the new album of Eminem ( Recovery). The tracks just keeps me going. Tracks like Love the way you lie featuring Rihanna is my favorite!
