I literally just listen to all of their albums on loop.. amazing how conducive it is to studying.

Also, I will throw in some piano concertos by the likes of Frédéric Chopin.

I've been listening to entire discographies of bands. Just fire up Spotify Premium, pick an artist, and listen to everything they've got.

So far, I've gotten through all of...
mewithoutYou
Anberlin
Emery
The xx
Walk The Moon
Young The Giant
Mumford and Sons

When I get agitated, I pump some August Burns Red or The Devil Wears Prada.

When I study, I can't listen to music with hooks. My brain goes with the hook, and so anything remotely catchy is off the table.

I could listen to classical, but I don't really know enough classical to compile an entire study playlist. Jesu Joy of Man's Desiring and Canon in D would definitely make the playlist if I could. One classical album I could listen to in full while studying is Requiem.

So basically, I end up listening to EDM while I study. It keeps me moving quickly and there aren't any hooks for my brain to go along with.

I could list a boatload of tracks because I literally have an 8 hour playlist for work/studying that is 90% EDM. But you'd be just as good off firing up Pandora and making a "Sander Van Doorn" station. It will be great for studying. Money back guarantee.

Some guy earlier mentioned Explosions in the Sky. I could probably listen to that while working/studying, but I've never tried.
