What Music Do You listen to? In my life, I listen many hours per day a lot of music, when I wanna work and keep focus state, I prefer to keep music on the background(in general, music without voices).
Because I love chill music, in general on category more or less than another one, I made a list of, so put for every "category", a song which I consider representative and of course, I like it.
Ambiental:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KVbXdWJ8BF4
I prefer to think about this category as songs of nature without many electronic effects, also I love this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CeBw_atUkoo
ChillHop:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DKSzY7Dg-rA, it's a nice to mix between jazz and hip, even it's one of chill music with lyrics, I considering good for night mode, for a Monday morning I prefer just jazz: https://www.youtube.com/user/Chillhopdotcom/videos
ChillOut:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sN3Lg1zKp2c
I like to think about this as a mix between nature songs(Ambiental, maybe?) and electronic effects), for me someone who it's more introvert who spends a lot of time on computer it's food for my soul.
Chillstep:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tKMmMHyLBCE, I don't found a specific difference between chillout si chill step, but I will make some research about that.
Classic:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R98mtkC6N3Y&list=PLVnVsHKss1OVXMH36bUzpIIXrDOakGnLL&index=2, I think this I good moments when you wanna some time just for you, I know it's not chill music, I move on more to pop, house music, but I prefer to consider has belonged to chill music category.
Classical:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=liyLFar7c3E, I think it's the best way to keep my mind focus and take some extra energy from music, of course, are some songs which are sad in lyrics but I consider classical music good for energy.
Downtempo:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AwFpRxjt_BA, I like to listen to this when I wanna don't think of anything when I wanna move forward.
Lo-fi:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EJew8Mvgau0, I think is better to make a release of thoughts, in the special night, sometimes I think of lo-fi as style not genre but to be honest I'm sure about where I can "
categorize" this one, for example :
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mlUMgZGFCtw&t=129s this is a mix between house and lo-fi in essence because comparative with other mixes this one doesn't have a lot of song in one song, slow house as I like to say it.
Lounge:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=98I_ST9GZSE, for the genre it's the music of the sea, perfect in my opinion for the mode when you to do "nothing", maybe it's for a sunny day on the chair near to seawater, or for some extrovert people excellent for the pub atmosphere.
Regional:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_26BhViw28s
It's not a real category on youtube world, but for me, it's more like a world category but more custom, perfect for travelers who like, want to know about music culture of a specific(country) culture.
it's a category of music by countries like Spain, Italy, Brazil,Argentina, France , Germany, Japan, Chinese(which is my favorite, India, Egipt and many for example:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3eiR38p9z3s
Maybe it's not correct but I consider U.S.A mother of Jazz music by default.
Trap:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5HrkmCKgNqY, about this I prefer to think as be a good mod to focus on movements(dance) not though when I listen, so these energies me and give a good vibe, my favorite it's this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yY7iGa4t9-I&t=469 but this one it's a mix of the mode of just trap music in one song.
World :
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ptOrEue24ac, I think this is for everyone who loves to travel, it's not a specific genre(sometimes youtube its spaghetti of music, so to be honest, I'm very confused sometimes
I made a quick video for principal categories if are you curious you can take a look: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rpxwQ5DT4yA, this is my first video, I will remake it, I made to make something different, new experience but to look a people I'm not a pro of making videos.
Probably a lot of people prefer a playlist, maybe from Spotify but I make this article to make some "exchange views", so some opinions about: "What you listen when you want to be the focus, chill on the office" make me happy but I consider it's not enough so I made a web app for chill music lovers, I prefer not to make bad adverting, and cheap so who it's curious can ask me link of app.
About me: I'm a web developer,I'm an introvert so I don't like to talk and write a lot, so my soft skills are bad, but I try to be an optimist and improve it in time and I'm not a native English speaking so please accept my apologies for any mistake of this article.
If you like this article you can follow me on twitter or time feedback about "chill music on the office".
Thank for your time and i hope this will be enjoyable for you.
