The right background music can boost our concentration. But chill and lo-fi beats won’t satisfy every taste. What makes ...

came to say this, I've been listening to this a ton since they launched a few weeks ago.
came to say this too
Wow! Loved your tip ;)
Thank you for this... Freaken awesome.
damn, this is amazing! thank you for sharing this
Thanks!! This is awesome.
I haven't been seen a site this fresh and original in so long. What a fun app to write.
I can't share this playlist enough, been listening to it heavy lately. it hits the spots when you need some hip hop beats without the crappy lyrics https://music.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLjiB1Gm1BUm9X3IEMTSe-KWsEgiNnS1ll&feature=share
nice, I love it! would have never thought of it myself
Hmm, I occasionally listen to chillhop whenever I'm suddenly possessed by the chillhop gods or something. 😂 I mainly listen to jazz, ambient, breakcore, and whatever album I feel like listening to at the moment. I also specifically love this instrumental math rock playlist and can't find anything quite like it. :) It's just so weirdly happy for a math rock playlist.
Didn't know about Epic Instrumental. My bookmarks say thank you.
I would add three more:
Post-Rock
Witch House
And, of course:
Mac Quayle's Mr. Robot Soundtrack
Nice list. I will definitely listen to Celtic and fantasy list. Lo-fi is great, but sometimes too distracting, so I see these missing:
And a bit of personal preference:
Great tips! Thank you.
I like "Music to Code by" by Carl Franklin. He created Pomodoro-sized (25 minutes) tracks that help you focus. But it's important to mention, that it's not free. It's $19.99 for 21 tracks (almost 9 hours of music). I think it's a fair deal.
And one special tip if you are "bug-hunting". You should definitely check out "The Mission" by Jail Job Eve. It's a song about a headhunter on a mission. The lyrics are just perfect for finding and fixing bugs. 😄
I usually go for no vocals deep house music, the similar beat between songs helps me not focus on the music. Usually I get caught up on the details in a song, be it simple repeating lyrics, but house music I can have going in the background for hours.

Thank for this and all the links...
I like to listen to hardcore or industrial techno, it helps me to focus while coding. I almost only listen to this kind of music while I am working, I am usually less hardcore... 😅
My main source of hardcore techno is a YouTube channel from Berlin : youtube.com/c/H%C3%96RBERLIN
3 or 4 DJs are doing a one hour mix each day, you can found all kind of DJ so you can skip if it is not your thing...
Thank you. Only showing a minimal subset of what is available, it is a nice list with nice channels.
Personally I prefer much more voice less audio and try to a avoid YouTube. Which reminds me to write up a list of channels outside of YouTube.
Check out code-fi. Made by AMP channel

I'm old school: classical music is often the perfect thing for me. But sometimes I end up listening to a wide array of other things all depending on the task. Norse folk music (wardruna.com/ and the likes) can be really good at times. :)
And of course epic music (two steps from hell and the likes) is perfect for going on bug killing quests with.
For coding, I like silence. If I can't get that, I prefer music that's undistracting yet somewhat energetic. I found some on jedentageinset.de/ (for instance, soundcloud.com/arel_schaefer/bahnw...). But, I don't know German, and I'm not very familiar with current genres. Can anyone suggest how I can find more music like this?
I have found the playlist Dark Academia Classical of spotify helps me get things done (both studying and coding)
The playlist features multiple composers from different eras: Chopin, Beethoven, Satie, Haendel Mozart, Bach, etc. I like most of them, but I can't stand Eiunaudi. Maybe you will love him and truth be told, his music is great for setting up a focused mindset.
here's the link: open.spotify.com/playlist/37i9dQZF...
While coding, I really like listening to epic music. Here is my playlist, over 24h carefully selected music:

This was recently released on producthunt: lofi.cafe/
I love to listen to Psymbient music too while programming or reading,
this is a nice playlist if you like:

I have also created a miscellaneous playlist with a variety of genres inside for anyone interested in exploring another playlist:

Another excellent lofi site lofimusic.app/
Chillhop hits the spot for me. Never heard this before. Thanks!
(And, ofc, the red panda is adorable.)
For me, the music in the background has to have lyrics. Otherwise.. I feel like something is wrong :).
I wanted a very simple thing for music, I guess freeCodeCamp is for me. Thanks
ths i like them
Very cool! Our dev team also recently compiled a playlist of their favorite coding tunes!
Bit of 1974 mall muzac...

Appreciate this... I was in a total funk with my music. Chillhop is working for me today. Thanks!
I seem to be the odd man out in that I can't program with any kind of music playing. I can wite papers with some hard rock in the background, but I need either silance or random/white noise.
LOFI BEATS REIGNS SUPREME 💯

A list of the mentioned here I have noticed listen to frequently. Has anyone listened to the Elder Scrolls V sound tracks? youtu.be/5OWdMHIRld8?list=PL8CB794...
Here's my Youtube radio when coding :
