GalleyCat Readers Pick the Best Writing Music of 2008, Part Three

images-1.jpeg

in truly gala spirit, galleycat readers shared their favorite music over the last few weeks.

Today’s installment concludes the first annual Best Writing Music list. We’d like to say thanks to everybody who emailed their suggestions. Want more music? Follow these links for Part One and Part Two of the GalleyCat list. If that’s not enough, Largehearted Boy has plenty more literary and music content.

One reader suggested: “The ultimate weapon is Bach’s unaccompanied cello music. Yo Yo Ma, Pablo Casals, other fine recordings — up to you. But it’s like Liquid Wrench when I’m stuck. Among things that have come out more recently, I like Hanging Gardens by the Necks, New Tones by Nomo, anything by Tortoise, and (for entering longhand changes on the computer) anything by the New Pornographers.”

‘Australian Taleban’ fully free

A reader from Yockey Communication writes: “The Analord 10 singles by Aphex Twin really do it for me. Also, from 2008, Skeletal Lamping by Of Montreal (pictured) is great for editing / rewrites.”

More suggestions after the jump…
