Well, it seems sound is a very special element to us foxes as well.
Would make sense, since a foxes hearing is one of its most accute senses.
Foxes can hear mice under a snow blanket by the rustling of their feet and accurately pinpoint them and dive through the snow to get them, after all...
So for discussion, I wanted to gather here what the relation of each of us to sound is.
 
For me... sound and especially music is something magical.
The right music can carry me and my emotions a long way. Make my hair stand up.
And when I focus just a bit I can sort of see a wave and colors to each tune.
With the right music I can do almost any task easily, that's why I always keep an USB stick with loopable songs around.
I prefer music frome games, without any text and usually a quick pace, though I do have some slower pieces as well.
 
I can connect feelings, emotions, mindsets, stories... to make it short: a lot of things to music.
It's like visualization... but more like... audialization... or something.
Hmmm, let's just say... A piece of music can describe a person better than a thousand words in my eyes (or should I say "ears"?).
I think this piece describes me pretty well: Emotional Skyscraper ~ Cosmic Mind
 
So what about you?
What is your opinion on tihs topic?

[tsukos]

I like music with lyrics, soft melodic songs, and epic orchestral pieces. But by far my favorite thing to hear in sound is the finely tuned instrument of the voice. Whether it be birds chirping, humans talking and singing, or foxes making their many sounds, that's what I like to hear.

However... you might say I'm almost oversensitive to certain types of sound... sometimes, certain loud sounds can cause me physical pain; the 'nails on chalkboard' type of sounds. I know a lot of foxes and my friends like, say, techno and certain kinds of metal music but for me those genres range from being unpleasant to listen to up to seizure-inducing. Not to say there aren't exceptions, but I've made attempts at listening to a lot of popular music in both genres and honestly I've only been able to listen to and enjoy a few so far. I'm willing to try any recommendations but I'm not going to go looking for music myself.

[Ivy Kirax]

Music is a big thing for me as it makes up for around 90% ((yes you almost will never see me without headphones on)) of what I listen to a day and react to. For me it's like a 'Second breath of air', keeps me going in anything I do physically and metaphysically

Most of what I listen to can be anything from music from movies both with Lyrics or without, orchestral, techno, trance, hardstyle, mainstream, and remixes of mainstream music. Occasionally there have been a couple of other genre's that slip into what I listen to but it all coincides with my emotions. In all, basically anything 'New' or with a strong heavy beat works for me.

Hmmm, let's just say... A piece of music can describe a person better than a thousand words in my eyes (or should I say "ears"?).

I would have to say this is pretty much along the same lines as how I react with music, though at times I find I can feed off energy from sound/music too.


Here is a few songs that I listen to~

Dino & Rocker - Breakfast At Tiffany's (Movetown remix) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9NAo43Q8fdI

Mad Mark feat. Alexander - Anywhere You Go (DJ Antoine vs Mad Mark 2K12 Mix) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fthGsjrj9KI&list=FL5r7Gf-HpTCl-Hsy3VrPQdg&index=2&feature=plpp_video

I LOVE MUSIC!!!!!!!!!!!!

Get's my through everything.

The one song that forever will send chills down my spine and send me into a dream-like trance is: I don't belong here - Klaus Badelt

favorite song ever!

Music is an odd thing. A source of energy in its own, forged from the deepest parts of the soul. It would be from there why there would be a connection to the energies within music that people get, whether it simply be emotional or on a deeper, more spiritual level.

I love music. Whether it be simply for the mind altering effects, to the energy needs that I fill with it, it is always around me.

I've grown a fondness of the energy and moods fast-paced music can give me, found in genres like techno and trance, along with video game music itself (a crude affiliation to some eyes and ears, but there are lovely compositions). When it gets down to my likings, I prefer anything aside from Country music and Rap (Because I am tired of hearing the cliches of them). My favorites stem around orchestrations and instrumentals. I am very fond of Asian music in general, especially anything played on the ehru.

[Gingitsune]

I love music as well!  Music acts like my caffeine in the morning more than coffee ever could.  It's inspired the vast majority of everything I've written, and really gets me going throughout the day.  My favorite lately has been more epic orchestral stuff, and I'm finding I'm leaning towards more instrumental stuff lately.  But, I've always loved good techno and trance, songs in many different languages (particularly Asian), traditional Asian music, and video game music.

Here are a couple songs that really have a HUGELY powerful effect on me:

Origa - Inner Universe

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EIVgSuuUTwQ

Conjure One - Redemption

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kfE6O_RC9sQ


As for sound in general though… while I'm strongly affected by music, for sound it really depends with me.  For instance, I have trouble remembering information that I hear.  Yet, the scrabbling in the walls I can remember!

I feel that I'm training myself better in hearing slight differences between words.  Tones, however, are still hard for me to process.   I'm much more visual in how I process stuff.  One of my favorite assignments was to look at a word through a sound program and actually see the patterns a word makes when spoken, like the formants on vowels (these little bars of sound) and how things like "t" look like a vertical line with a space afterwards.  It gave me a whole new way of understanding things, I love doing that so much! 

[Hakuzo NightFox]

Sounds is the first thing I react to. Sudden loud noises break my concentration the fastest ><.

But Me and Ivy has the same taste in music, so it's a bit repetitive to post any of my likes in music .

[StormFox]

I ofc. like music as well. One thing I notice while playing video games is how different music can influence how good/bad I am or even just how I play.

And yes, I too can sit for hours at a time listening to all that is happening around us; things most people don't even notice or hear.

[Takumi-no-Kitsune]

I do this as well. It is humorous because I'll ask people if they had heard something, and they give shocked replies when they finally notice it. XD

Renard vs Mayhem - Spacedragonstyle Raggamissile VIP http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v7OH8fyi_c0&list=FL5r7Gf-HpTCl-Hsy3VrPQdg&index=5&feature=plpp_video

Sweet! That's an extreme remix from Ridley's theme from the Metroid Series.
I was just playing through the entire series again these last weeks, what were the odds? =^,^=

Anyway... that theme is a bit too... uh... jagged? for my taste...
It's odd, realy, how I can sort of attribute shapes like that to songs.
I mostely like more smooth songs.
Oh, they can be techno and everything, as long as they sort of... keep that smooth line most of the time.
 
It's really hard to describe, but, meh.
 
What do you expect? Human vocaublary was not meant to express sound the way we foxes would have it.

THIS. THIS DESCRIBES MY PROBLEM WITH 99 PERCENT OF ALL MUSIC I HAVE PROBLEMS WITH.

Thank you. thank you thank you thank you!

Normally I keep any song from Renard from feeding off the energy from it, they give a lot of energy for me but kinda used to it from the many 'rough sounding' songs my dragon keeps showing me ^^; again this isn't limited to other songs that can provide energy or be there to improve/stay in sync with emotions.

Something a little smoother perhaps?~

Oh man, I know exactly what you mean. Music can effect my mood and make me feel things, and I like to to this thing I call "diving" where I choose an instrument and block out all the rest, following only that sound. I love things that use synthesized sounds, because it's always fun to follow those... My taste in music is very eclectic, though... Panic! At the Disco, Dido, Skillet, Disturbed...

Also, I can hear dog whistles. They hurt my ears badly, like needles jabbing into them.
