I can loop a clip of white noise endlessly if that will help P

Obviously being sarcastic here. I'm clueless as to what the average miner listens to whilst mining. I cannot imagine myself having a one-way conversation with a rock. Ever.

listen? that implies miners aren't tabbed out and/or watching tv/cracking one off/playing another game/etc while mining and instead they're actually paying attention to eve.

I hear they used to be darker/sadder songs, like this and this... but after the barges changes, it's more like this.

Nothing beats gothic metal when mining (Evanescence, Lacuna Coil, etc.)... either that or reggae. ^^

You say you enjoy mining, but it isn't fun, and now I see it's because you don't even play the game, you tab out. No wonder you want a Hulk with a huge ore bay.

I used to just tell a stream service to scramble up some dubstep and turn up my headset till I can't hear anything else.

For mining, I recommend classical.

Classic ROCK, that is.

Mining is one of the Best things you can do in Eve,

because you can actually be semi-afk and actually live Real life as well, as a bonus,

I think its better than getting bleeding eyeballs from staring at the monitor all day as Real Life passes you by, and then you die Roll

Add some Radiohead.

Nothing says draw a warm bath and get out the razor blades better than
mining and Radiohead.

Excuse ME. Are you implying that one needs to alt-tab to ham one out?
