This guy anxieties
Surprised to see it’s not mentioned here. 24 years old internet radio, still kicking, over 30 channels with hand-picked playlists, almost all of them suitable for concentration. They are sponsoring Def-Con for years. Owner has a great Fediverse presence.
Channels have very interesting concepts like Spy Jazz, Ambient over NASA’s mission broadcasts, Celtic Folk, Vaporwave, 80s Synthpop and my favorite SF 10-33 Ambient over San Francisco Police Radio live feed.
Omg, another Soma fan! I’ve been listening for years! Groove Salad/Classic, Synphaera, and Suburbs of Goa are my favs. This is my jam!
When I actually need to concentrate, I usually stop listening to music. When I want to get into a flow state and it isn’t 100% critical I focus, it could be just about anything. This remix of the Call of Duty World at War Black Cats theme is awesome for that purpose.
Thrash Metal or Mozart.
I get most of my brainstorming done at 2:20 – https://youtu.be/DFI6cV9slfI?si=RaMdKtk3GUXB0XZw
None. I’ve tried everything from Mozart to Metallica, and any kind of music playing while I’m trying to concentrate is more of a distraction than a help.
I’m happy to hear that I’m not the only one!
strings
something without lyrics
Beats to study/relax to
Yep has to have no lyrics or I get pulled into the song!
Usually electronica or classical. Both just fill in with tasty noises that blend into the background. Most music composed with some sort of a music theory background tends to do this well without relying on lyrics, repetition or distractions fighting for your attention.
Usually nothing but sometimes classical or lofi. Mostly I find it distracting but occasionally it works for no discernable reason
The music of SILENCE. And I never listen to music at any other time either.
I’m beginning to think this makes me extremely unusual.
It really all depends on what I am trying to concentrate on.
If I am playing a game, I actually turn the music off.
If I am driving, I have some high-octane rock playing.
If I am doing housework, I throw on the “Lo-Fi Girl” playlist.
If I want little distraction it’d either be no music, or music I never have or rarely listen to.
Brain.fm. Been using it for years. Hits the spot.
