Try www.smoothjazz.com, that's the smoothest

jazz you will ever find.

Without this music, I would not get in the

"Zone" ....

Try it !

Lots to choose from: world, electronica, jazz, classical, etc, etc. All free. If you choose a feed with a bitrate over 128 you are getting near CD quality.

I listen to a squawk box all day and nothing gets my juices flowing and my toe tapping more than when the action gets hot and heavy.

The music helps to get in a certain "state

i run a prop trading desk and have been experimenting with playing music and comdey. some of the best stuff is on www.live365.com you can find every type of music there including stations that play just pranks. simply put pranks in the search field. you will find stations that play jerky boys and touch tone terrorists. laughter will kill negative emotions often found on trading floors. high energy music is very helpfull in raising spirits also.
