yup, that one works well
so does
Ulrich Schnauss - Far Away Trains Passing By
and
Ulrich Schnauss - A Strangely Isolated Place |
|

| PersianMafia |
Chicane - FFTMC, Behind the Sun
and
Nick Warren - GU024
were the three albums I listened to these past two days while studying at uni.
Best stuff for me while studying are:
any form of downtempo/chillout (schnauss, thievery corp, portishead)
minimal/ambient trance (ala chicane)
deep prog/goooood prog house (ala Digweed Fabric, Holden, Involver, pole folder etc.)
I'm feeling Airdrawndagger this Monday and maybe Balance 008 if I can get my hands on a copy. Though I must say, I HAVE to have headphones on to study to music. If the music is running out of speakers I go nuts.
My Panasonic SL-CT710MP3/CD Player + Koss KSC75 Phones + a small stall at the underground UVIC library + volume at 4 = the ultimate aural-mental partnership a calc notebook could ever witness. |

Yeah sometimes :) That's why I chose the Kryoniks-album, it's "hardcore ambient" ;D Not like chillout (eg. Chicane, conjure one etc)... it's more like that music you hear in space documentarys haha.

sincerely, any electronic music, not so hard...
but till some cool euphoric trance... prog... etc...
or classical, for me the problems are the vocals, without vocals I can concentrate more...
;) |
strongly agree |

How do you dance to chillout? or is that different to ambient?
I too find vocals a no-no, too distracting, I end up singing along :(
I found more chilled stuff works far better, Orbital - Halcyon & On & On works a treat :) |

| I usually don't listen to music while studying mostly because it gets hard for me to focus. There is an exception when it comes to math homework though. I've dominated that subject. I can listen to any mixed compilation when studying math. It gets me to finish my work faster. |

| Well, to be honest, I never listen to music while I study. It could be because I never study :p |
