    Like many others have mentioned, video game soundtracks when studying. [https://www.gameslearningsociety.org/what-is-the-science-of-video-game-music/](Video game music has also been shown to help with studying.)

    Can video game music help you study?
    And according to a plethora of research, having such music to accompany a task–especially if it’s repetitive—can drive up dopamine levels in the brain, allowing you to engage in work or study more productively and with less stress. It can also drive inspiration and add a touch of whimsy to otherwise boring tasks.

        oh the 1998-2000 Age of Empires OSTs are literally just MIDI with default instrument which gives its own vibe. Age of Empires 3 got real orchestra.

        But that particular song you sent reminds me a lot to Battlefield 1 OST https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MXkw6YTaJpM

        This one isn't similar but feels epic https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W8rPqVCjG8A

        That Battlefield Tsar one is indeed epic. I like programming to Epic music sometimes it feeds my fantasies. Plus the vocals are sufficiently muted and possibly not English so I don't find them distracting

                Game soundtracks, mainly World of Warcraft because of the sheer amount of different music ambience and also because of the nostalgia hit.

                I recommend https://youtube.com/@meisio for very very well crafted videos of pretty much every zone the game has or is offering.

                            It's all new people now sadly Edgar passed just a few years ago. But the new troupe studied and played with prior TD for years and very much has the same vibe

                            Their whole catalogue from 1960s to now is a perfect soundtrack for a thinking person's life
