This and anything else you like that is just instrumentals, I feel like words distract me when I'm trying to study.

I always enjoy some classical stuff personally.

Yeah, anything that doesn't have words is the way to go. I've been listening to Gramatik nonstop the last few

music in a language you dont speak ex.italian .... checkout Andrea Bocelli

or instrumentals...everyone must checkout the Cafe Del MAre compilations, really smooth and relaxing

Also, depends slightly on the subject matter. For mathematics I'd suggest something crazy grimy, e.g. Justice's Planisphere, on the other hand, I find that chill instrumentals, like Explosions in the Sky or something, is really good for more literary pursuits.

Anything involving math or brute for science I go hardcore punk rock (my populations dynamics teacher this semester followed punk bands for five years and wore a Minor Threat shirt first day to class /claim):

-Minor Threat
-Dead Kennedys
-Black Flag
-Misfits
-Bad Religion (lead singer teaches at my college and said hi to me /claim)
-Suicidal Tendancies
-And of course Slayer

If I'm writing a paper:

-Pink Floyd
-Folk/rock like Bob Dylan, Johnny Cash, Arlo or Woody Guthrie
-Neil Young
-Zeppelin
-Hypnotic Brass Ensemble (jazz helps to write)

If I'm reading or studying:

-No music. I can't focus or read when music is pumping into my brain.

panpipes! seriously try it, http://playlistnow.fm/empty/#/music/artist/tarpuy/music/?page=4 . I am afraid all these are live but if you could find a studio version you're in luck. I've got a cd that I could send you if you are interested.

I like to keep it chill when I study-pretty lights, thievery corporation, ratatat, rjd2, explosions in the sky, boards of canada, sigur ros, and, to mix it up, some good latin/flamenco guitar type music like rodrigo y gabriella, paco de lucia, etc.
