Do you prefer a quiet environment whilst working or prefer to listen to something? In case of the latter, what do you usually play?

    I prefer to work without music/videos or the like, but I don't mind background noise or the sort(like chatter, cars, etc')

    Usually quiet. With my ANC headset on, not playing anything - just cancelling all the noise.

    If I'm feeling more laxed - I hit Play in this playlist: https://music.youtube.com/watch/...

    I work really well with music whose lyrics I don't understand (my recent favourite is German rock) and I am reasonably efficient with English music because I can ignore the lyrics. I get nothing done with music in my mother tongue though.

    i think too much quiet can be unsettling, but too much noise is a nuisance, so i try to find some balance. it also changes day to day. when I'm tired i like having some music on to get some energy.

    Trance music. Helps filter out nonsese. #ASOT

    Sometimes I need quiet, other times I want music. It has to be instrumental though. I find lyrics distracting. Usually progressive house or some other EDM subgenre.

    Sometimes I like quiet, sometimes I need the beast mode playlist.

    @anux it's mental. I'm jumping from liking music to liking noise to liking nothing, and the cycle keeps going.

    Yes - depending on mood and task at hand.

    I go for rap and trap half the time, and the other, solo violin…

    I’m unsure what is better for my productivity.

    listen to podcasts, often news and Ted Talks. Weirdly I think it's calming to have someone talking about some other problems in my head. Makes me remember the world is large.
    Can't stand the silence.
