    Whole CD of chill music for you there. I had it on loop for so long I can't listen to it anymore .

    Manu Chao is a legend.

    I like Radio 3 Though Dubstep can also be good to listen to. Quite a contrast between the two! As long as there are no lyrics, it doesn't distract me

    I listen to opera/classical.

    Vivaldi's Four seasons are very relaxing.

    And I personally like to listen to Tosca.

    But if you don't like that sorta stuff then I'd recommend Lifehouses' music or Fun's music

    I usually listen to "trip-hop" music quietly and it helps a lot. My saviours this round of revision have been the albums "Music By Cavelight" by Blockhead ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RikyKv7zp7U ) and "Dial 'M' For Monkey" by Bonobo ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gYZA7pn6WM4 )

    Other good albums from different genres that have helped me are "Up the Downstair" by Porcupine Tree (www.youtube.com/watch?v=p7uMYGhtBuA ) and "Fallen Light" by Phaeleh ( www.youtube.com/watch?v=qajFhFmDdho - full album there so that's nice). Couldn't recommend these more.

    Enjoy, and remember it has to be very quiet or it just gets distracting

    Rebecca Ferguson and Colbie Caillat. No idea why it's only those two but any other just distracts me!

    I have a playlist that alternates between house music and classical piano. It keeps me on edge and focused at the same time.

    Chilled-out dubstep is the best, try Phaeleh!

    Ravel - Bolero always helps me to get in the studying mood. It has a really organised and mechanical sort of rhythm.
    PJ Harvey's latest album, anything by NEU! or Tangerine Dream and Brian Eno's 'Music for Airports' are also good.
    Best of luck

    Drum and bass, and chilled out dubstep.

    No lyrics.
    chilled out dubstep? maybe I should take some E's with that too. That will get me in the mood to tell my revision books I love them.

    Very nice artist... Helped a lot before...

    I like to listen to the piano guys on YouTube... Most of their videos are covers but they are beautiful!
