| Finals Week...
And so begins that bleak and hellish week long period that comes around once a year (actually it's twice now since college classes are only a semester long). So instead of digs, this is just a list of albums that I've been listening to whilst studying. | | 1 |  | Scale The Summit
Carving Desert Canyons
Ridiculously melodic instrumental metal...It's a pretty sweet album to just listen to by itself as well. | | 2 |  | Mono
Hymn To The Immortal Wind
If it's loud enough I can't help but pay attention to it, but if it's at just the right volume it helps me concentrate. | | 3 |  | Explosions In The Sky
The Earth Is Not a Cold Dead Place
It's kind of a boring album tbh but it's great background music for writing papers/speeches. | | 4 | | Godspeed You! Black Emperor
Lift Your Skinny Fists Like Antennas To
I tried to study to F#A#?, but it didn't work out so well. This album did for whatever reason. | | 5 |  | Brian Eno
Ambient 4: On Land
Duh. | | 6 |  | Bela Fleck and the Flecktones
Live at the Quick
If you take out a few of the oddball tracks, it's a pretty relaxing listen. | | 7 |  | Daft Punk
Discovery
Not really an album I study to. It's more of a preparatory album...gets me pumped up I guess. | | 8 |  | Frozen Silence
Frozen Silence
Pianos and acoustic guitars...awesome. | | 9 | | Ricardo Cobo
Brouwer: Guitar Music, Vol. 1 - Estudios Sencillos, Tres Apuntes & Cancion de Cuna
Classical guitar. Ricardo Cobo is an ace player, Brouwer's compositions are awesome, and Cobo's interpretations are pretty interesting. Again, at the right volume, it somehow helps me concentrate. | | 10 |  | Brian Eno
Ambient 1: Music For Airports
Duh. | |

05.05.09 | Lots of post-rock/ambient, but then again, it's kind of difficult to study while listening to louder, less subtle things... | kitsch
05.05.09 | you need stars of the lid
best ambient ever | Metalstyles
05.05.09 | lol at the description to 7. Do you want/need to get pumped up for studing? | bloc
05.05.09 | i dunno how 1 would not get in the way, considering how great it is. you think it's a good album to study to?
good luck on the finals dawg | marksellsuswallets
05.05.09 | My attention span just functions in odd ways I suppose. It's one of the few albums I can jam out to that also helps me concentrate, only at lower volumes though. |
