Weirdly none. Music distracts me from what I am doing.

A single song isn't sufficient to get anything done and you'll inevitably distract yourself by constantly fiddling with your music choice once the song is over in the next 2 - 10 minutes. Don't fall into the spotify trap. Instead put on a full album and truly focus for an hour or so at a time.

That said I'll put on something like Paul Oakenfold's Global Underground. Disc1+2 which is around 2hours of music. Or a Led Zeppelin album (~45min), or maybe a Symphony.

Ween - Friends (Friends EP Mix)

Really the whole Friends EP is pretty solid for getting stuff done.

Mostly silence, but when I was in high school (some decades ago now) I had a CD of Mozart music I would put on while doing homework. I still associate Symphony 40 in G minor with grinding through tasks.

[–] ojmcelderry@lemmy.one 3 points 9 months ago

For me, to 'get shit done' means to enter a state of flow and focus. For that I put on noise cancelling headphones and put this Chillhopmusic playlist on shuffle.

(It's not my playlist, just a public one that someone has created and shared.)

It's usually Blanck Mass for me. That confuses the shit out of other people, but I can't imagine using something with lyrics without getting distracted. It's very uncomplicated in all the right ways.

[–] Mycatiskai@lemmy.ca 2 points 9 months ago

Only by Nine Inch Nails it has a fast beat makes you want to move.

Speed metal or techno - Daft Punk's Around the World and all of God Hates Us All by Slayer come to mind.

[–] platypode@sh.itjust.works 2 points 9 months ago

It's an album, but: The Fabulous Steel Guitar Sound of Pete Drake. It's instrumental, upbeat, and just the right amount of interesting to just jam out to and get 'er done.

In the house - in a heartbeat (28 days later theme). It sounds oddly motivating.

I've got a playlist with almost everything released by The Field.

It's like an engine that keeps my brain going similar to a gΓ₯nglΓ₯t but for coding or writing or thinking.

Always the album Acheron by Mechina. Very rhythmic and symphonic space themed death metal.

While working, anything with lyrics will distract me, so usually it’s Kai Engel. If it’s shit I need to do around the house, usually metal.

I have a Battle Tracks playlist of RPG battle music that really pumps me up!

[–] Kissaki@feddit.de 1 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago)

Do you need the song to tell you to get shit done? Isn't listening to that just putting it back further?

Usually I open soundcloud.com and have music from there running in the background. No specific songs I regularly or specifically for this I come back to. I do have my likes, shares, and follows though, if the feed is unfitting.
