Italian Progrock: Great workmusic to drown out noisy neighbours

Everyone has their own preference for work music. Some writer friends prefer silence. If I'm writing, I can't listen to any music that has English lyrics because I get too distracted. If I'm illustrating, anything is fine.

And when I'm trying to write in a rented apartment when it sounds like someone in the apartment directly above my office is hammering and drilling (drilling into my brain), I find that my usual mellow atmospheric music doesn't cut it. I pull out the big guns, e.g. Italian progressive rock.

Why? Because the instrumentals and vocals are dense and enough to help the annoying construction sounds to fade a bit into the background. And because I can't understand the lyrics, I'm not distracted. 😁 Thanks to my friend whatevernot.com for introducing me to Locanda delle Fate (I think it was Brian, anyway).

What about the rest of you? What's YOUR favourite background music, if any?
