This specific video has helped me buckle down and get shit done so many times. I’ve even made loops of songs I have copies of on my computer for this kind of thing. The repetition OH MY GOD it tickles my brain in just the right way so as to boost productivity. It’s great how that can cancel out the ADHD when I have deadlines looming.

Video game music does the same thing. Death by Glamour gets me in the ZONE.

Me when I discovered Ren a couple of days ago listening to his music constantly for two days.

You will not be disappointed if you check him out.

Disclaimer: I’m all about the lyrics, so you need to listen to it all. This guy has everything though.

II is the one standing in the back. The guy up front is Brandon Toews from Drumeo

Ah, gotcha. I knew that was II back there but I didn’t recognize Brandon Toews. Thanks!

Do we know for certain that Brandon isn’t II?

The guy in the front is one of the producers for Drumeo on YouTube, not a member of Sleep Token.

The Dash Berlin ASOT 600 set (specifically Sofia) got me through my dissertation writing. Even now, if I sit down with a coffee and turn on the set, within the couple minutes I am completely in the zone for working. It’s like a brain hack for me.

I also like the Music for programming site (specifically RITES) which is also good for some focus music.

I’ve tried to get some folks to post their dissertation writing music and form a massive playlist, as it seems really common to have some certain song or album. I’m sure it’s similar for other intense work flows too.

Only 272 times? I sometimes listen to the same song for days.

I listen to Sega Mega Drive playlists. Usually the relaxing ones. I’ve played them so much that the song progression is normal to me. I know which one will play next in the list. Sometimes a song gets stuck in my head and it impedes my thought process, so I put it on and don’t have to think about it anymore. Usually the Sega songs, they are designed to be repeated.

Check this one out, just let it play until the end https://youtu.be/KrOayhOn-tw
