I listen to a lot of lyrically and emotionally dense music, and I love it but when I need to turn my brain on it keeps me from being able to focus. I've listened to a fair few of those #ADHD focus playlists, and while they serve, they never grab me in a way that makes me want to come back to them. A lot of them are... too synthetic? IDK, I actually really like synths, but there's something too much like the musical version of #CorporateMemphis or #Globohomo in focus playlists, and I haaaaate that shit.

Metal helps me grind through data entry, but doesn't let me write letters or emails. I need something light and friendly for correspondence.

A sprinkling of music I do enjoy as maybe a jumping off point for recommendations:

The Protomen
Mort Garson,
Hiroshi Yoshimura
Frightened Rabbit
Boy Genius
Phoebe Bridgers
Lucy Dacus
Lisa Leblanc
The Oh Hellos
Winter Saga
Gnome
Durry
Los Campesinos!

Skads of other things, but like... that's all I can think of.
