The great Ylvis. I'm sure we have all been impacted by his greatness in some way.

Anyone know/use any music for scioly (cram) studying? (Background music, but enough to keep you hyped about studying)

Piano guys is nice if you need to be sort of focus, but don't want something too dry. uhhh in my opinion some indie music works too or just slow music in general! I would stay away from catchy pop songs. Does not help when trying to memorize things at all.

Well, if I'm not too late, I'd recommend some of Jonas Steur's work (it's some great four-on-the-floor progressive trance): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xQ2wFZC ... n_Evqb6GGp
Also, the soundtrack of the SimCity remake: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5GCoc89 ... fa-cyqLdfn

Yeah, try telling that to my family while they're in the car with me...

"There's no words in any of these songs." (Oh really mom? I guess I just didn't notice.)
"Ugh, this music is so boring." (Oh, but when I played a song with a fast tempo you made fun of that. There's no pleasin' y'all!)

No lyrics, but definitely not boring. Might get a little loud after three hours.

Under Pressure by logic is what I listen to right before any test/event, and I have a huge rap/trap/metal playlist for the morning of comp.
Logic, Childish Gambino, Jay Z, Kanye West, Kendrick Lamar, Drake, A$AP Rocky, Lil Dicky, Antiserum and Mayhem, XVII, The Glitch Mob, Rise Against, A7X, 5FDP

To relax after comp, a weird mix of 21 Pilots, country of all sorts, reggae, jack johnson/john mayer, and alt. rock

To study, I recommend anything by Stellardrone on youtube. Very subtle ambient space music that's very good as background noise.
