I just discovered this music maybe two months ago. I enjoy listening to this so-called epic music when I'm editing images. I've been a fan of big music, like Boston and Pink Floyd, for many years. Right now I'm editing images from the VAC Warbird Airshow and this epic music fits the pictures I'm editing.

I would say doo wopper, motown fan, southern rock and roll with a little surfer music for good measure.

This so-called Epic Music really strikes a cord with me. There are a bunch of YouTube channels I listen to when I am editing photographs.

i can see how this gets the adrenaline flowing. i use to enjoy dvorak for his intense buildups while playing chess... the timing was perfect for the kills.

it reminds me of something that would play in cheesy 1980s movies during a montage.

I can't picture wanting to edit photos while that's playing lol

I really enjoy this type of music. Try the "New Age Beats" station on Pandora.

Gave up on Pandora maybe a year ago. Never got to listen to what I wanted to hear.

YouTube is my "go to" source for music now. From early Satchmo to the latest jazz and blues, and now this epic music.

frank, as a jazz freak, i recomed 2 radio stations that will twist your mustache...

wbgo and wkcr

both stream online. kcr is great if you enjoy historic jazz. they give background n timelines on featured musicians. but for those down home blues and all time favorites... bgo is the place!

It has ambient music, but with big, chewy beats, if that makes sense.

Big, chewy beats makes complete sense. Music you can sink your teeth into...
