Working in scilence

I've been reading blogs forever. Also I've been looking for productivity recipies forever. And one of them alwas repeats itself: Find the right sound. Find the right background noise. But no one, ever, talked about working in scilence.

I've been working from home for several years now and the more I do that the more I realise how important silence is to me. The sound of my computer buzzing, maybe the tiny sound of the street but nothing more. No music, no movies and especially no sound of Rumba robot bumping into my walls. Just silence. Zero distractions. Thats what keeps me going. And productive.

And how does your work sound? Is it quiet? Or as lound and emotional as it can be?
