The mood or tone I need to write might determine what I chose to listen to.
This. I'll listen to a variety of music, looking for things that fit the tone of whatever I'm working on.

Currently, the "1812 Overture" by Tchaikovsky.
Which contains a useful writing maxim: when running out of ideas, add cannons.
Soundtracks mostly.
Each character has its own tunes and I listen to them before writing. Helps me keep the mood and tone of the narrative consistent. Then I need absolute silence while I write, otherwise I can't ear their voices
i am more. I must have absolute silence type, of writer. It is amazing that you can have music and write at the same time. having said that I like your taste in music.
I have used storm background as well if I find my music to be too energetic and distracting.
I even found battle background WITH a storm to listen to while writing a battle scene that transpires in the middle of a storm. Shocked that I found it.
Oh, please share some links!
I've got several long YouTube collections that I will switch through, as well as a Pandora channel of movie soundtracks.
