I play metal covers of classical music, and orchestral covers of Rock songs.
Essentially, songs I recognize, but no lyrics to tie up my language processor.
Anything with a fast beat and no lyrics.
I have a Spotify playlist I found called “drum’n’bass no lyrics” that fits the bill.
Also use any of the bonkers releases (favourite is bonkers 14) but they have lyrics… I’ve found that once I’ve listened to them a few times though I don’t notice the lyrics anymore…
So many types of electronic music. Trance. EDM. House. A DJ.
Sub focus and Infected mushroom off the top of my head for a couple of good ones that help me pound out the computer work 😁
A few years ago, I found the music genre Math rock (especially instrumentals) which has been phenomenal for whenever I have to be productive, since my brain is hyped and busy enough to not bother me with thoughts, but not too busy to be completely distracted. I swear it’s like handing my toddler brain a tablet just to have a few minutes of uninterrupted time to be able to do some Adult Things like writing emails and uni stuff.
if someone is interested, I can drop the link to my Math rock playlist on Spotify
Edit: Here you go, a link for my little playlist with mainly Math rock tracks (aptly called “Traubenzucker”, which is German for “dextrose” lol): https://open.spotify.com/playlist/30EWXxsm8mj2exYlne10Dw?si=D6kBAFemQe2BKiL9WWCPJQ&pt=f6f1836c5d7b6182ea91098653b5b127&pi=iC_J-yz6RrOie
I think this link only works for a week, so if the link is invalid, just send me a message and I’ll send you a new one :)
LukHash - especially the stuff without vocals sadly it seems I like the older stuff more, so my collection isn’t growing.
Thank you for this thread to get some more suggestions!Are you me? LukHash is my go to. I can’t imagine how many times I’ve listened to Virtual Burnout and Better Than Reality in the last year.
Cheers to good taste!
