Just a question to both hobbyists and providers, what are your feelings about music when you engage in the hobby?  In generall does help, hinder the experience, and if it helps, what kind of music.  I mean, we've all seen "10" and heard Ravel's "Bolero" - all comments wellcome!

Anytime I travel, I always have my music with me. I've found that a nice selection of Indian, Asian, and Middle Eastern music can usually satisfy any mood. The right selection can be very sensual and erotic, without being so soothing it puts you to sleep. Some of the Middle Eastern has just the right rhythm, while the Asian and Indian are more mellow massage type music.

Just my opinion.

ENIGMA works wonderfully for me.

Music is a big part of my life.  I bring my laptop to sessions and I have a variety of play lists with everything from Jazz to 80's rock.  What I play depends on the mood that we are in. The music is an enhancement, not something that I would say belongs in the forefront but it helps set the mood.

I always have music playing when I am at my incall. What I play depends on my mood, but if I know a gent well enough to know his tastes, then I will play music I know he likes.

I'm kind of weird though - my favorite music for a session is classical music. For me it really heightens the feeling of intimacy and sensuality to have beautiful, flowing music playing without the distraction of vocals

Shirley Horn, Dianna Krall or Sarah Vaughan

Enya, of all people.

Probably from the years I spent in new age massage parlors.

I find TV distracting.  I've even seen reviews that the provider had more interest in the TV.  I have asked a provider to turn TV off but she declined...  wanted noise to cover our activities (Like the Hotel staff are gonna listen?).  

I'd much rather the provider have some background music available...

Anoushka Shankar. She is amazing! (And gorgeous, I might add)
