Thanks for sharing that community, looks good! Currently I don't have anything that I consider worth sharing, as I mostly do basic shapes and fundamental drawing exercises + sketching things from my everyday and work life (syringes, medication bottles, etc.)

My music taste is a weird mix of niche genres, but for drawing I prefer mostly instrumental music. I'm a huge fan of ambient music, especially deep ambient and dark ambient - but for the latter, I prefer the less unsettling stuff for drawing. So no Aghast, Schloss Tegal or anything. Mount Shrine, Apocryphos or most other artists from the label Cryo Chamber are well suited for drawing sessions. If I want something rather relaxing, it's more in the vein of Boards of Canada, Carbon Based Lifeforms and the like. Synthwave is another genre I really like, but for drawing the Chillwave subgenre is better than the high-energy, fast paced dark stuff that I like for cleaning or driving. Artists like Emil Rottmayer, Krosia, Alpha Room, HOME... Really helps me to chill out. There's a YT channel called "Electronic Gems" that has some nice playlists. Otherwise I like San Francisco-based online radio Soma.FM, especially the stations: Deep Space One, The Dark Zone, N5MD and Drone Zone. ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿป

Whoa! I will have to check those out, I'm definitely interested in these kinds of music.

I can recommend Aquarium Nightclub by Space Ghost for some very relaxing house.

Have fun. There's a lot to discover.

Sounds kinda like vaporwave, I dig that.
