    White and Pink noise where shown to increase concentration in ADHD people

    Of course, I have this tab in Mull lying around for 3 weeks and in one week it will be auto-deleted!

    Gotta get some white noise!

          If you think of low frequencies as “red” and high frequencies as “blue”, corresponding to the range of the visible light spectrum, then pink noise has more “red” and less “blue”; white noise has equal amounts of all frequencies, etc.

    If you’re a gamer then I’d strongly recommend you get a playlist of bangers from your favourite games. They tend to be high energy, low on distracting lyrics, and if you’ve played the game any amount then they’ve might have gotten associated with a “locked in” brain state so you feel like whatever task you’re achieving is analogous to gaming.

    My playlist has tracks from Streets of Rage 2, Golden Sun, Pokémon, Smash Bros and Super Hexagon amongst others.

    It’s been a few years I’ve only listened to music without any vocals in it. My favorite is tuning to SomaFM’s ambient-music stations like Synphaera, Deep Space One, Space Station and, if you are really into the slowest kind of ambient music, Drone Zone. Soma has many instrumental stations with specific genres like Fluid for instrumental trap.

      This right here. I don’t know why, but Telemann got me through university… well, Telemann and Dexedrine.

    I like instrumental electronic songs, stuff with soft emphasis on melody, but a definite beat to rely on and some good atmosphere and mood. Found a good few songs like that out of the demoscene, actually!

    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.

    Pandora has a station called “music for studying” that I find pretty helpful. It’s a combo of instrumental electronic and classical and it’s just upbeat enough to keep me focused without being distracting.
