Ok, I start: I like synthwave, synthpop and sovietwave. And it’s not as much a question of focus as the fact music energized me, so lyrics are also ok and even welcome and I don’t get distracted at all.

    Most of the music I enjoy listening to, has good singing and/or lyrics that I want to hear. But this is exactly what I don’t need while attempting to concentrate on another task!

    When I need to focus on something, the music needs to be motivating, blocking out any ambient noise, but not distracting. I find trance and other techno to be best for this.
