If you like chillhop/jazzhop I just found a good one for ya. I like to listen to these while I work.
@Tfmonkey Do you like Classical music? I am partial to Chopin, Debussy, and Bach cello suites. Might I offer a primer?
@sardonicsmile I have relaxing piano music, but a lot of classical music is a bit too energetic. I do love me some gymnopedies from Satie.
@Tfmonkey Try the Composers I listed. Soothing and melancholic. Good background music for working. imo
Mozart, Shostakovich and Abba are indeed energetic and vibrant.
Shostakovich is a favorite for sure.
If you want the ultimate in calm you can do no better than Spiegel im Spiegel by Arvo Part. It's a masterclass on meditative calm and minimalism:
Classical fan here too.
Sometimes choral music or solo instruments can strike the right balance if you find classical music too energetic.
A few beauties that come to mind:

@UncleIroh @Tfmonkey So, you are a fan of "The Sixteen", with Harry Christophers. Very moving, indeed.
I see you are a man with taste!
Thanks. At their best, The Sixteen are without parallel.
