Sex Pistols, vintage punk rock etc.....seems to go well with my tank addiction.
I have found a little pattern to my music tastes when building kits. I'd never really thought about it until I talked to a friend.
at the moment with the Airliners it's the soundtrack to Catch Me If You Can and also a lot of swing.
My friend said that during his boat phase when they lived in Aberystyth it was sea shanties and the Titanic soundtrack. Now he is in Swindon and doing railways it is Haydn, Beethoven and Mozart.
My 48th planes is usually an Indie mixture and tanks tend to lean towards Modern Jazz!
Does anyone else have any music habits or am I a freak?
love,

I'm currently into the Fratelli's and can't get away from it at the moment, the album is one superb track after another and one of the best I have heard in a long time. If you are into them you may have also noticed just how often thier tracks are used as background music on the TV!!
By the way Pan Am Clipper Girl, a warm welcome to the forum. Nice to see another lady joining us, we don't have enough amongst our members.
Your ID reminds me of a flight in the US many years ago which ended up being on a Pan Am flight the day before they very suddenly announced that they were going bust. I came very close to getting stranded!

i have to admit i just have windows media player set to random, so its what ever comes on.
in my car though at the moment i have The Plain White T's every second counts live dvd and its great fun!
Um, great question! I always put on the music of the era-Really takes me into the frame of mind. Since I'm into old machines, ships and planes I'll listen to Rachmaninoff, Bartok, Prokofieff, and other odd ball early 20th century composers. I think the closest I've come to modern music was Rammstein while building my first uboat!

Important consideration, Perry... establishing the appropriate ambiance. Swing, definitely swing... it evokes the radials, rivets and sculptured alloys of my favourite era of aircraft technology... 30s and 40s... unless of course I'm in the mood for Bebop, Cool or Hard Bop... and there's always room in my studio for some Soul Funk to re-energise (Freak Out!) if the masking is getting me down (I hate masking). A friend of mine, who is into panzer models, plays stuff like the Horst Wessel Lied and the Luftwaffe March from the Battle of Britain. Too rich for my veins (anyway, I've gone off things with guns hanging out of them at present)... although I have a soft spot for Kenneth Alford marches when I come over all colonial like... (Colonel Bogey; Thin Red Line; The Sound of the Guns; The Army of the Nile). Know wot I mean?
