Top songs are Remi, Remi, my son‘s favorite song for our nightly dance parties, Remi, Remi
Overall it feels more accurate than my Spotify wrapped, even tho I didn’t use this all year.

I am a background music girl through and THROUGH! I also used to religiously listen to Chopin but now I listen to tonnes more instrumental music;
Dev Hynes' scores for Queen & Slim and We Are Who We Are are so addictive to me and so unique, I love listening to them while studying.
Piero Piccioni is a composer that made scores for old Italian films and the Camille score and Amore mio aiutami score are my favs for studying when it's sunny.
I'm seconding the other reply left to this q. Whenever I'm doing the most boring work and I have no motivation I shuffle the Succession soundtrack and pretend that what I'm doing is super important and going to save the world.
Berlioz is an artist I listen to exclusively when I'm studying late. Jazz is the perfect vibe for late night studying but sometimes I just want to fall asleep so jazz-house is perfect because it keeps me awake enough.
Hiroshi Yoshimura's Surround album is a lot more ambient than my other recs and can put you to sleep if you listen late BUT is very calming and gorgeous and runs almost no risk of being distracting.
Mac DeMarco has a whole 9hr album of 90% instrumentals that I'll listen to sometimes.
Low-key also drum and bass... this is verrrrry hit or miss I'm aware. I can only listen in certain circumstances but sometimes when I need to do a lot of work quickly I'll just slap on an instrumental drum and bass playlist and hammer it out. Listened to Entanglements by Alix Perez for a while last year, but usually just find a playlist. Dnb tends to feature samples with words but I don't find them distracting typically as they're not at the forefront of the mix.
I also find that if I listen to music in a language I don't understand, the lyrics don't distract me as much. I've been listening to Eliana Pittman's self-titled album recently while studying but this could potentially apply to any album.
OMG okay that's all I have. I feel insane.

laid in bed listening to this last night while trying to stay awake waiting for my laundry to be done, i was extremely tired since i’d been up since 4AM tho. kept the music on just loud enough to keep me alert but low enough to let me drift off intermittently. highly recommend the experience.
you’ll get lost in the textures, have weird half dreams while you fight off sleep, notice the progression and slight changes over the course of the song, and overall lose perception of time

i think people don’t utilize their local libraries enough when they’re such wonderful resources!
one of my favorite things to stem from the library and library cards is the app “libby”! it’s an amazing way to get free books, audiobooks, and magazines digitally.
completely free if you have a library card (which are also totally free!)
go support your local library!
