If you're anything like me, you listen to music every chance you get. I'm always on the lookout for new music to bop to or I'm listening to the same five songs I've decided to obsess over for the week. Since we're almost a month into the spring semester, it's a good time to create new playlists to study or just silently jam to on your daily commute.
Maybe even add some songs to your own playlist and hit the gym! Here are a couple playlists I've found that you can check out. Maybe you'll find your new workout jam or study sesh playlist while you're at it!
To start, I always gravitate towards jazz music to help me study. If you can't concentrate listening to lyrics, jazz is perfect since it's instrumental. Plus its good music. A good playlist to begin with is Spotify's Jazz Classics playlist. This playlist is back to basic with all the classic jazz artists including Duke Ellington and Chet Baker. But if you're not into that, there's always variations of jazz mixed with electronic music or R&B. The Jazz Vibes and Butter playlists are great for when you want a twist of something new.
For those not into jazz but still looking for music to focus to, a good coffee house playlist never hurt. You might even want to venture out of your dorm room or library and get an actual cup of coffee for it. Coffeehouse Blend has the acoustic and live versions of great artists on there as well as artists that haven't yet broken out on the charts.
If a goal for your new year was to go to the gym more, a good place to start is to collect a bunch of music that gives you that much needed push. Motivation Mix or Latin Dance Cardio all have music that will warm you up to run or lift some weights.
Lastly, I enjoy listening to music in other languages because they seem less distracting. It's also always good to venture out of the normal music you listen to because who knows what you'd find. To begin your search I suggest some K-Pop or whatever variation of Hispanic/Latin music you can find.
I hope through this you've found some new bops to run, study, or just enjoy. Here's to a productive spring semester! And on the topic of playlists, here's the link to my personal profile if you're into amateur made playlists. Happy listening!
