Music and sounds to support concentration and productivity
I use music and sounds during work for 2 reasons:
- avoid distractions from noise in the office. That works best with a noise cancellation headset and if sounds are used which drown out the noise (e.g. the forest sound below is pretty effective for human voice)
- help to get into the flow
So here are some sources which I use:
Sounds
These sites allow to create and share sound environments which are continously looped and randomized. You can also download the mixed samples.
- ambient-mixer.com
Some of the sounds I mixed are energizing-ambience-2 Remix/Play&Download, harvest-jazz-venue---party-mix Remix/Play&Download, beach--seagulls-and-wind - naturesoundsfor.me
