My mix of Pandora stations are Panic! at the Disco, The Fray, My Chemical Romance, Katy Perry, Fall Out Boy, Utada, and Owl City right now. It's great, because it gives me a variety of music I like. What are all y'all into?
Some of the ones I like while writing are "Son of Flynn" (a specific song from the latest Tron movie), "Inception (Film Score)" and the Yoshida Brothers. I like instrumental music. If there are any lyrics I just get distracted too easily.
I've been listening to two different Pandora stations while I write this year's NaNo.
I mostly listen to that station I titled Hard Rock. It plays oldies from the 80's such as Great White, Cinderella, Skid Row, all the way to the new stuff like Hinder, Nickelback, Skillet, 3 days grace.
I also have been listening to Club/Dance music station for some club scenes I have. Though it's difficult for me to write when I listen to that because I'd much rather dance lol
I've been listening to a station built off of Escala, it's some really intense orchestral music, and Celtic radio. I find instrumental music the easiest to write to, because I can just picture the scenes I'm writing in a movie, with some intense music playing in the background. Lol. :)

You might be interested in Bond, which is a quartet very similar to Escala.
Mostly been flipping between Fall Out Boy and Maroon 5, but randomly playing Death Cab for Cutie, Adele, The Fray, and Vitamin String Quartet. Quite a variety...
Three Days Grace Radio, Miranda Lambert Radio, A Rocket To The Moon Radio, Demi Lovato Radio (for Disney songs that work with my story line), Pixie Lott Radio, Solo Piano Radio, and Big Band Radio (jazz)
I flip through all of them depending on my mood while writing
I have an acoustic folk-rock station I've been hitting pretty hard this month. The artist seeds are Mariee Sioux, Smoke Fairies, Stephanie Dosen, Jesca Hoop, Sufjan Stevens, Alela Diane, and Emmylou Harris. It's very inspiring and tends to write itself into my story a lot of the time.
Okay, here we go.d: 80's Alternative, Anberlin, 90's Alternative/Grunge, Tween, The Maine, Today's Hits, The Ready Set, Pink, Blood On The Dancefloor, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Indie Holidays, Framing Hanley, The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus, The Killers, Kid Cudi, Creed, Anna Nalick, A Fine Frenzy, Buno Mars, The Summer Set, Oasis, Three Days Grace, Foo Fighters, Cold War Kids, Death Cab For Cutie, The Airborne Toxic Event, Hollywood Undead, Christina Perri, Avril Lavinge, Florence + The Machine, and, last but not least, Paramore.
Sleeping with sirens, asking Alexandria, Elena siegma, silverstein, pierce the veil, heavy metal radio, breathe carolina, we came as romans, a skylit drive, black veil brides, screamo radio, attack attack! (US) mayday parade and panic at the disco...
it feels like i have alot compared to other people
My main station's seeds are The Killers, Florence+The Machine, Neon Trees, Relient K, My Chemical Romance, Regina Spektor, Vienna Teng, and Bob Dylan. In practice, this means I get mostly punk-emo-pop-rock fusions bands with male singers, quietly interesting single-person female vocals, and random occasional indie or folk rock. It's strangely specific but I love it greatly.
I also have one for CCM, that is to say, Contemporary Christian, and one which I'm trying to train to play only foreign language music. But since the first seed was Rammstein, it thinks I want heavy metal instead. And most of the other bands I want to add are too obscure...
Enya and Balmorhea. Love these stations. Both play music from movies and it is mostly just music(occasional singing), so it is easier for me to concentrate. Like Antibody, I get distracted when someone starts singing, and like Haylee, I see the scenes better with instrumental, like a movie
Two Steps from Hell Radio Stratovarius Radio Voltaire Radio E Nomine Radio Yuki Kajiura Radio ELFCORE!!! (basically fantasy, power and symphonic metal) Alice Cooper Radio Klaus Badelt Radio Dragonforce Radio Nightwish Radio Metallica Radio
Olafur Arnalds and ES Posthumus are my writing stations. I can't write to music with lyrics and both of them as artists/group are amazing at delivering a one-two-punch combo of emotion in their music. I use the ES station for my epic scenes.

Yes. I like a lot of music.
Re: What Are Your Pandora Stations?
I've been writing a novel set in Australia, and Jet Radio has been remarkably helpful. I also really love Eric Johnson radio, and Jack Johnson.
Meow!
Re: What Are Your Pandora Stations?
Skrillex, "Kids" (the song by MGMT), Immortal Technique, Tool, Scissor Sisters, John Digweed, The Chemical Brothers, Bone Thugs N Harmony, and Nas.
The Skrillex one seems to fit my novel very, very well. I only discovered him this month and I'm completely in love.
