I've compiled my own playlist of selected baroque pieces, which I enjoy listening too. You should check out this compilation of Purcell pieces. Thinking of making a music review blog idk

Yep. I can't have music on because I'm a musician and get distracted.

For me, it's binaural beats therapy

Silent hill has some great music and ambience. What a cool game.

>dammit anon now im listening to music instead of getting back to reading.
Yeah, music like this can be distracting but I've listened to it so many times that it becomes like pleasant white noise (almost sacrilegious I know) and sometimes I artistically listen to a song on loop for the better part of the day. Von Neumann is said to have disliked quite, doing all his work while music loudly played (to the chagrin of his collegues, notably Einstein). Someone on /sci/ made an image of this that I saved but I'm phoneposting rn and can't find it on the archives.
>guess ill fold some laundry instead.
As long as you get something done lol
>Purcell is great
Glad we agree.

>>18830810
I usually disconnect my headphones and put lute music on low, I used to listen to the big orchestral pieces but now I find them too intense and distracting. So yeah its either that or ambient music.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eFtMSWPZ60k

I don’t. This doesn’t make me weird right?

>>18830810

>>18833303
I also don't put music on when reading, it's distracting

you can post the most ludicrous op image on this board with a tangentially literature-related topic and people will just jump to show off how sophisticated they are. It's unbelievable. Serious replies to this thread... Serious replies to ridiculous shelf/stack threads... Get a grip you fucking losers.

>>18830810
Only drone/minimalism bc it’s the least distracting.

I don't listen to music while writing or reading because the mind isn't capable of multitasking in they most people think. You're either not paying attention to the music which is a waste or you're losing focus on whatever the music is distracting you from. For some activities this small loss of focus won't add up to much but for reading and writing it becomes the difference. It's the sort of thing thing dumb people think smart people do.

I don't write, but I've been listening to Akira Kosemura lately and I figure some of you could find good use of his music while writing.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4ngedtxDWe8

I'm thinking any type of ambient music with field recordings would be nice.

I make playlists for each book I read
Some examples
>Chet Baker for Hemingway
>Kjetil Bjørnstad for Hamsun
>Phil Elverum for Steinbeck
>The Assassination of Jesse James OST for Blood Meridian

That's so bad, how can anyone listen to that? A few seconds in and instant headache.

I want to listen to music each time i read, but i find rather than putting me in a good headspace it just distracts me unfortunately. Sounds of rain might work however, or similar.

When i force it however, i put on something more ambient like

>>18830810
Game OST, TSFH, Audiomachine, mostly lyricless stuff or music that is more reliant on its non-lyrical bits.

>>18830810
Unironically the most dynamic, loudest nightcore I can find.

>>18833179
Nevermind, I found it, lol.

>>18830810
jesus christ thats some good bait

>>18830857
why not just get into exploring ambient music anon? I am not knocking you for using playlists on youtube and if you are fine with that then good for you but there is a lot of music that fits this sound out there and a hell of a lot of gems.

>>18832290
se
no

While reading I prefer drone or ambient so Grouper gets a lot of plays.
I will also listen to harsh noise as well.
