On this page, I share my favorite music to work to and invite you to send me your favorite work tracks. This is a judgement-free zone, I am open to all suggestions.
This is an all-time classic. Good to listen to first thing in the morning, particularly well-suited for focused writing.
Credits to Andreas Weiland for sending me this wonderful creation by user onceinalifetime on Youtube. Great if you want to feel like you're working in a big office tower in the 90s.
Great for cozy home office days in autumn or winter. Makes you feel like you're foraging in the secret forest on the lookout for some hardwood (Stardew players will understand…)
A childhood throwback, trying to score strikes while your parents may or may not be getting a divorce next door.
The Sims soundtrack is a gift that keeps on giving. This one is great for when things are good, you just submitted, the new project is still exciting – listen to this before you realize there are data issues in this one, too.
It's 6pm, your presentation is tomorrow, you're still fixing up your graphs. While you're running on limited capacity, you need some brainless music to keep you going through these brainless tasks.
This mix, but really any Nujabes mix, is great for the slow days – you've already worked plenty this week, so today you're reading a little, answering to a few emails. You're looking forward to your afternoon plans.
This one is great for when you're still a little sleepy and started working earlier than usual.
If you ever want to feel disconnected from your personal life, leave all your struggles behind to embark on a data adventure, this is your track.
For all your critical thinking about the fitness industrial complex, it's 9am and you've finished all your Asanas and are heading to the office. The iced matcha latte in hand, you secretly wish you were one of the rich housewives in your dataset.
While we are ALL waiting for the new 2026 Pride and Prejudice adaptation written by the fabulous Dolly Alderton (check out her book Everything I Know About Love!), I want to share some of the most calming music out there for all those lost academic souls scrolling down far enough in this list to read this description.
