When was the last time you found piece that didn’t match your usual listening habits, but ended up liking it? How did you come accross it?

My taste has been mostly rock, metal and certain kinds of electroic music, but

Fallout introduced me to Billie Holiday

Youtube channel Inside the Score got me started on classical music, like actually listening and enjoying Beethoven, Sibelius and Dvorak and going even to a concert instead of just knowing the bits you can not avoid.

The jazz covers of Phoenix Wright music, especially The Dark Fragrance of Coffee, got me seeking for more of similar style.

    “Study” playlists on Spotify.

    Not all of them mind you, mostly ones where the lyrics don’t really matter. Really chill and great.

      I use video game playlist when I need to get into the zone at work. Video game soundtracks are often designed to suck you in and keep you engaged without being intrusive.
