Classical music

>>15046635
None

Usually ambient music

nothing or ambient. try Brian Eno’s Music For White Cube. a recent discovery for me. it’s barely even music.

Nothing or white noise

I advise you to read books in complete silence, fren. Music can hurt your brain.

Julianna Barwick, Tim Hecker, Steve Reich, Sigur Ros, GAS, the stars of the lid, explosions in the sky.... the list could go on

>>15046635
No music so I can enjoy the slight sound of the wind and birds chirping outside my window.
If the bastard cunt children are outside with their parents every single cunting day right outside my window due to the quarantine, then i'll usually play

Gas - Pop
Deepchord Presents: Echospace - Liumin
Henry Flynt - You Are My Everlovin'
Silent Hill 2 OST
Tim Hecker's many albums
Phillip Glass - Glassworks
Julius Eastman - Unjust Malaise
Popol Vuh - In the Garden
Global Communication - 76:14
Biosphere - Substrata
Stars of the Lid
Klaus Schulze - Irrlicht
Ekkehard Ehlers - Plays

Really do try to read in silence if you can, it's calming and you do not need another stimulus along with the reading itself.

Animal abuse is the epitome of cringe

That not animal abuse this is animal abuse.

>>15046635
Free that lizard bro

>>15049274
That is more like: Animal, Abuse!

>>15046930
you actually have to pay attention to classical music to get the most out of it though

>>15049274

Nice. The rat won. I would hate to be the guy that bet on the caiman hatchling.

>>15049274
nig tier move going for the eye like that, nevertheless I support my mammalian brother in this bout
The way that lizard thing moved was creepy as fuck

>>15046986
This
Usually go for Thomas Köner

>>15050283
This is something that people who don't actually have a musical education always spout

>>15050424
i mean you're missing out on a lot if you don't follow the development of motifs, the harmonic modulations, themes being played against each other, etc. that's a big part of what makes classical music worth listening to, in addition to pleasant melodies.

>>15049274
That eye deserves a close-up.

Try not to listen to music if I can help it but I find myself addicted to this song and its the only I use when I read https://youtu.be/bFzKILiHb4c

>>15046930
please tell me you don't actually do this
>>15046994
this is really the only answer. there is probably some ambient music out there that is sparse enough to not be distracting, but it's a slippery slope in my experience.

>>15050350
the rat always wins some chink use to do a lot of rat gladiator fights.

>>15051384
poor mousey :(

ambient, certain classical pieces , aphex twin

>>15050475
All of these things exist (in some cases with greater complexity) in popular music

>>15051384
Sauce?

None because it's a stupid idea. You're either not listening to the music or you're not paying attention to what you're reading.

>>15051497
examples? if you're talking about like modern jazz or avant-garde rock music then most of that isn't exactly "popular"

>>15051497
oh and btw i'm not talking about "complexity" exactly but about following the musical narrative that develops over the piece. that's where much of the interest is in classical music

>>15046635
The Disintegration Loops by William Basinski - repetitive without being just noise or lacking development. But only if the environment is distracting otherwise.
