To be honest I don't think listening to music affects your play, not positively at least. That being said I do listen to music while playing for extended periods of time, I just make sure it isn't too loud, or too distracting. Usually I end up listening to some instrumental stuff, jazz, blues, lots of acoustic stuff, some very light electronic music like Emancipator, Miike Snow, rjd2 etc. I listen to a lot of heavy rock, metal, death metal, heavier music in general, but never while playing SC. It just doesn't do well together, neither does dubstep, imo.

Music makes me play worse. I turn it off during tournaments and competitive games. However, laddering with music is just more enjoyable, so of course I listen. Electro House.

Personally, I like dubstep or anything with a solid beat. Anything with a lull in the music is no good, because I don't want to be thinking about what I am listening too.

I listen to the music I would normally listen to anyway if I wasn't playing the game.

I feel that dubstep makes me play faster but more sloppier. Calming soothing music makes me think straight and it feels good even after a win or a loss. No music makes me concentrate more at lans tho

KPOP and dubstep are the only things I listen to while I play SC.

Funny that I don't listen to these genres of music when I'm doing anything else.

I think it has to do with a constant rhythm in your head. I know that when I listen to Trance or House, I tend to have better accuracy on my timings and my macro. When listening to music with lots of vocals and screaming, I have a bigger issue with these basics.

Music always decreases my skill level. When I play with music, I have been playing against mid-high plats... since not listening to music, my win rate has gone up and now I'm playing against diamonds in almost every match up. I am about to be promoted based on my win/loss ratio and etc... so yea :D

Best music to listen to while playing is classical. Beethoven, Mozart, Wagner, all that stuff is the best IMO.

I sometimes do listen to music while laddering, but I don't see any difference in my play whether I'm listening or not. I also tend to listen to different kinds of music, so I can't really say what music is best to play for different races.
