Background music for study, work and cafés

Three collections for long tasks: focus work, lo-fi and café music. They differ in character, not in purpose. Focus music is the steadiest — closer to ambient and quiet piano — for an hour of reading or coding. Lo-fi is warmer and more rhythmic, with beats and vinyl crackle. Café music is jazz, bossa and acoustic — atmosphere that never hijacks conversation.

Rule of thumb: one album per task. Every track skip is a micro-break that costs focus. Keep volume just below comfort level.

Café and shop owners: albums last about an hour; four or five cover a shift without harsh repeats. Ask us about public-performance rights if you need them.
