Best Studying Music (1 Viewer)

[rosiemorrison]

I'm doing a science experiment seeing if music while studying is beneficial or not. Also what type of music do you find best for study?

If you reply, thank you!!

How are you going to properly analyse and collate the results of this survey? How can you tell if it's beneficial or not?

I listen to either drum and bass or some classical, depending on my mood. (Eclectic but it works for me).

i usually turn off music, i cant concerntrate with it. If i do have music its usually ambient style, like some of burzum's stuff written from prison (his ambient music, not his black metal).

I listen to black metal mostly and a bit of death or folk metal.. I figure that it's not as distracting as regular music cause most the songs you can't understand the words so you wont find yourself singing (or thinking) along with the lyrics..

this is a pretty common science experiment.

tbh, sometimes i can listen to music sometimes i cant. depends on the work really. but when im doing a lot of reading i find that i can listen to music as long as it hasnt got any lyrics in it. i get too distracted with singing

If I really need to concentrate or I'm tired and I have to finish something off I just turn off my music, but otherwise I have it going pretty much all the time. Certain albums are good for it I think, like:

Tim Hecker - Harmony In Ultraviolet
Jan Jelinek - Kosmischer Pitch
Four Tet - Rounds


so pretty much ambient music without many lyrics.

I can't work withOUT music :/ I can hear myself think and it annoys the shit out of me so much that i cant concentrate on the work.. and the quiteness is awkward even if theres nobody around :/

downtempo/ambient mostly...
eg. air, boards of canada, zero 7 etc.

Some studies have shown that listening to Classical/Baroque music, specifically Mozart whilst studying, can increase brain power and concentration.

I personally listen to classical music while studying, because anything else distracts me. It's the only time when I can actually stand listening to it for long periods of time.

Mozart is definitely the best study music.
