Music isn't the most absolute type of media we experience on a daily basis. Videos and photos are often very straight forward, and the more artistic are more often rare to find. Music on the other hand serves multiple purposes and it really isn't a just tool for anyone listening or making it to consume it in the same fashion as it is intended to be.
I usually find myself with a lot of music that often is either brushed away or archived for later listening. I usually hate saying and admitting that I won't be listening to a particular album or artist. I always give everyone a shot before I push 'em away.
A good rule of thumb I live by is to listen to music as a background soundtrack only if I've heard the album or song before. It does help to listen to something new in the morning, late at night, or just doing things when you're less distracted. I've realized that during driving, you're in a mood that isn't always fit for all types of music but some make it easier than others to listen.
If you're looking to consume a lot of new music, I would suggest to listen to it without looking at the album/artist's listen on your computer/iPod/whatever you're playing it on. You will be in better shape for music if you're relaxed or concentrated. I recommend only listening to "liked" music if you're hyper (liked meaning something you've enjoyed before).
What are your favorite times, ways, or methods of listening to music? Any recommendations?
