- tomrod 1y agoI do the same. It is strange how psytrance/goa helps as external noise to drown out other distractions and so focus can be rationed.
- echelon_musk 1y agoI've found a bit of caffeine and some Astral Projection ideal for this. Care to share any favorite artists?
- sorcerer-mar 1y agoNot an artist per se but the app Endel is this continuous generated music with different "scenarios" for... well... different scenarios. IMO the full continuity is a game changer for focus.
- edvald 1y agoI can recommend dub techno for coding, works a treat for me at least. Nice and steady, relatively fast tempo but not too aggressive or intrusive. And crucially, no lyrics, which I find distracting when coding or writing.
- jason-johnson 1y agoI prefer classical music for this. Not "Flight of the bumblebee" type stuff, more like Adagio for Strings: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=izQsgE0L450 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=izQsgE0L450
- bradly 1y agoYes. The paper found 2.4 Hz frequencies to be the secret sauce which is 144 BPM and in pystrance/goa range. I would guess that is common freq range for lfos and modulations as well.
- parpfish 1y agoI’ve always thought it was funny how the two situations for listening to edm were so different: - alone doing intensely focused work - in a huge crowd dancing and definitely NOT doing work
