I'm a big fan of focusatwill.com, I used to use brain.fm but I think I like FAW way better.
I usually play whatever Apple Music is recommending (usually artist radio stations), because I don't want to get distracted figuring out what music to play.
Everyone likes to come to my stream and chill because i play such cool music: twitch.tv/h0h0h0
Or you can hit my Spotify Playlists up. The ones you get to are "Music I like" "Music I like 2" and my "Discover Weekly" - open.spotify.com/user/1221645…
Lastly, there is the beauty of "Music for Programming" - musicforprogramming.net/
I've been listening to a lot of Vaperwave recently. Easy for me to stay focused while listening. www.youtube.com/watch?v=F9L4q…
I usually listen to calm instrumental music without lyrics like Bonobo, a lot of post-rock or Spotify recommendations for focus that mostly contain kind of meditative tunes
I only listen to song that I already know very well. In that way I don’t get distracted that much.
If you're more into relaxed / dreamy type of electronic music, I highly recommend The "Night On The Terrace" series by nottradio on YouTube. My recent favorite is this one: www.youtube.com/watch?v=8YYyT…
Love EDM :) But I often work always-on with my product remotehour.com!
The later it gets the faster and louder it becomes. Now listening to Loxy on soundcloud.
Now this: soundcloud.com/a3jb/sets/rela…
Music/sounds can be distracting if you love music. So my top three non-music, music ways to stay focused are(in no particular order):
1. Ice-breaker ship sounds: www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q_WKl…
2. Skate videos. The clack, clack sound of people doing tricks are like a Metronome for keeping my head focused on what I am working on.
3. Noisly - probably the best app for mixing.making your own background noise. Weirdly enough mu fav is a combo of airplane propeller + firecracker sound from a bunk fire o_O
If I go for music the old LTJ Bukem + MC Conrad sets are quite good.

Cool, was listening to Bukem just before I opened WIP :)
Basically, I use my own playlist from music.yandex.ru/ but also I would strongly suggest to try this musicforprogramming.net/. Great experience with it!
Thanks for discovering me the musicforprogramming website! It's what I was looking for 🙏
I listen to these songs, and they work 100% of the time to get me into a deep flow state.
I find I'm most creative when I listen to this: www.youtube.com/watch?v=RG2IK…
(The trick with the first one is always starting it from the beginning and ONLY listening to it when I work. Starting it over triggers my brain immediately to get in a flow state.)
And I think deeper (strategize better) when I listen to this: www.youtube.com/watch?v=sKqfb…
(I do often write articles on this, too, though. It really depends on my mood which I choose while I write.)
Eternal Jukebox is a game changer. It doesn't work perfectly and its a big buggy, but it lets you loop a song infinitely. www.eternalboxmirror.xyz/juke…
