Interesting. I'm a (bit of) a musician, too. Music is too distracting when I write, but I can really do both when I'm drafting and doing other design work with my hands (forex, cutting patterns out with scissors) I find that I can really get into both at once, but - writing, forget it. Its one or the other.
Function brain scans have shown that when a professional orchestra musician listens to music, it involves the language center of the brain. For the control group, this was not the case.
I suppose in this case you are getting interference, just as I would if I played Carpenters instead of Beethoven.
Try nature sounds instead? Long complex recording, not a "generator".
BTW, what is "forex" if not currency speculation in the stock market?
