I'm reading H.P.Lovecraft novels actually, and I wish read it with a good music which coordinates with the atmosphere of L.
Same case of Allan Edgar Poe.
Also, perhaps do you have reading records references?

Why do you read with music playing?
>>8178051
Why do you see a movie with a soundtrack? Because it can increases the feeling when you read something.
Some people can't be concentrated when music is played, but it can be great.
For example one day I read Dante's Divine Comedy with gangsta rap instrumentals, it was so great I read aloud some extracts and few of my friends liked it.

>Why do you see a movie with a soundtrack?
Film is art in totality, it brings together visual and auditory art. The emotional scope of film is almost boundless. It's much the follow through of Wagnerian drama.
Music is to be enjoyed as music
Literature is to be enjoyed as literature.
The only patrician way to listen to music while reading is to read the novel and its corresponding tone poem. Pausing from the book to enjoy some of the tone poem, to then pause the music and return to the book.
This, and Brian Eno's ambience go well with most.

Really, for the same reason Brian Eno made a soundtrack for airports. Music is noise, it's auditory, you're going to hear some distracting noise when you read. The cycle of a fan, a car driving by, none of them inherently have anything to do with the text itself. But having audio that compliments the text itself isn't impossible.

Hellraiser ost?
spooky droney dark ambient like Lustmord and Sleep Research Facility would go well with HPL

Only ever read with music when it's non-fiction books.

As I said in >>8178129 it depends the context and the reading.
For me the most important thing when I read a book is to feel something, and it's better if all my senses used with a great music.

For horror I recommend Atrium Carceri. It is dark ambient, perfect for horror. Cryo Chamber, their record label, has several Lovecraft themed ambient mixes on YouTube.

Not so much music, but good ambient sounds help quite a lot.

Are you suggesting
1) Music is not noise, IE Audio IE your ears registering sound IE the sense of hearing
2) That Brian Eno is bad
What the fuck are you on about, really?
>>8178001
Lovecraft is my favorite author when it comes to straight entertainment I'm dead though and have never heard music
