Music solves many of my problems. It’s a remedy I use to address things I encounter daily. I also use music when it comes to writing; the craft that’s the air I breathe and the blood running through my veins. Sometimes I need a little boost to help add extra pleasure to the process or make the environment I’m working in more enjoyable. Music rescues me from unnecessary quiet and reinforces the currents of thoughts that might drift away without the proper notes.
I created this playlist to share some songs that are suitable for the process. Music for writing has to meet some specific qualifications—I can’t just write to anything! The description says, “For workers who need good music with very few or no words. Play at a medium-low volume for maximum effectiveness.” That’s because music with lyrics distracts me when I’m in a draft. I also said it is for “workers” because this playlist has multiple applications and could be helpful for other tasks.
Enjoy it either way, and I apologize for putting it on Spotify. I’ve provided a text file below with a written list of the songs so you can make use of that as well. Feel free to transfer it elsewhere if need be! May your work help us see better days. We need that right now.
