smashradio Posted September 4, 2022 Share Posted September 4, 2022 (edited) Hey fellow sellers! Music is a big part of our lives and as freelancers, I'm sure many of us listen to music while working. It helps us create, design, inspire and reach our potential. It helps us unwind, focus, get in the right mindset and to get out of it when we need to relax. I'm sure there are as many playlists out there for work as there are gigs on Fiverr. I prefer the more relaxing parts of the house genre/chillout/ambient for work and travel. But it can get a bit old to listen to the same playlists over and over again, so this is the place to share your favorite work music! I was in the mood for some relaxing tunes from Norwegian DJ, Finnebassen. Perfect for some late hour work.

zeus777 Posted September 5, 2022 Share Posted September 5, 2022 I'd say this. The piano solo is just so damn PERFECT. 11 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
katakatica Posted September 5, 2022 Share Posted September 5, 2022 I'm often listening to this kind of music when actually trying to focus! I've had to spend a good amount of time playing games (as research) these days as well, so sometimes end up humming along to game-y songs, but yeah! It's actually nice to have different walking and working playlists because I don't get so antsy while working when listening to something more chill! With how the weather changed here, it's somewhat cosy working from home (not too hot anymore!) especially with some music and all the free tea/drinks 😄 9 1 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some of my best work was also done over a bottle or two of red wine, but I quit drinking. These days, I'm enjoying alcohol free spirits (yes, that's a thing) and it's not half bad. Lyre's even launched a red wine, and I'm looking forward to trying it. It doesn't boost my creativity like a bottle of the real stuff does though. 11 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

moikchap Posted September 6, 2022 Share Posted September 6, 2022 I do a lot of writing. I find really lyrical songs can distract me. I tend to focus on mostly instrumental song. Nujabes - Aruarian Dance Jou Beats - Brasil Saor Patrol - Black Bull A Tribe Called Red - Electric Pow Wow Drum But, probably the most distinct or interesting to me is gamelan music. Not sure how exotic it would be for the global audience here though: 8 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beyond that, I often find myself mindlessly staring at and listening to Schiller concerts. 9 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

strategist_ceo Posted December 9, 2022 Share Posted December 9, 2022 I maintain a playlist of music from a variety of genres, including kpop, thai music, chinese music, japanese music and english. My preference leans towards upbeat dancey music that helps to keep me alert while working. KPOP JPOP (Oldies) UK Pop Thai Music 8 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vibronx Posted December 9, 2022 Share Posted December 9, 2022 (edited) When I translate or proofread, I listen to Nightcore music or other upbeat songs as it can be quite tedious work at times, so I need something to keep me going. When I develop games, I mostly listen to the Life is Strange soundtrack or the Tick, Tick... Boom! soundtrack (I love that movie. I'm totally the target audience for it, being very close to 30 and currently risking everything to make a dream come true). When I write, I always listen to the Twin Peaks soundtrack. It helps me keep the atmosphere of the story I'm writing consistent. Edited December 9, 2022 by vibronx 9 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
donnovan86 Posted December 9, 2022 Share Posted December 9, 2022 Even though I generally like heavier music, when I work I prefer syntwave or synthpop compilations. They are great, keep the flow going, while not having any voice that might distract me. At least that's what works for me. 9 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Bella" has been on my driving playlist for years. (I used to drive long distances as a part of work.) It keeps me awake, actually. I love MrDeepSense, too! Here are other favorites: I can't really listen to music while working now, though. Edited December 11, 2022 by mandyzines 7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Music keeps me energized and distracted at the same time. The upbeat tunes keep me stimulated, but I end up putting my hands up and waving them around too much. 9 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

whianem Posted December 12, 2022 Share Posted December 12, 2022 I have different music lists on spotify depending on the mood I need. Sometimes I am too anxious for any reason, so here I go with celtic or chill out music. Sometimes, I need a bit of enery, so I use my heavy metal or postpunk list. But, to be honest, music is mainly for a good walk or doing stuff out of home. At work, I prefer podcasts and radio. I am madly in love of podcasts, I even colaborate on one. I can spend 6 hours listening to a group of people analyzing and talking about a netflix serie and feeling surrounded by some kind of friendly company while working. (In case you have a fav podcast to share, I'm all ears XD) 7 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blueinarts Posted February 12, 2023 Share Posted February 12, 2023 What are you listening to right now? I start here with what I listen to regularly, especially when my concentration fails me. I didn't believe in it, well, it worked for me. Concentration at the top. Lofi Girl https://youtu.be/i43tkaTXtwI 4 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
