Got a go to playlist for heads down work?

Depends on your tastes and which service you're using, but searching for lo-fi beats seems to always be popular. My quirk is that I love Irish trad music, so I'll call up playlists of instrumentals, fiddles and concertinas and such. Not for everyone, of course. I work with someone who recommends a site, focusatwill, which offers "scientifically optimized" music for work. I think that's how Muzak was marketed decades ago, btw.

I love chill coffeehouse covers. Gentle, acoustic versions of popular songs. There are lots of popular playlists like that on Spotify so I must not be alone. Every once in awhile I'll switch to classic rock if I feel I need a little more energy.
