As I'm currently in the dead center of my thesis writing phase, the smallest little distraction could cause an hour wasted on useless internet abuse.
And although I have developed some good tricks to overcome these temptations over the years of dealing with deep-focus-requiring tasks, there are always new things I discover.

There are many nice playlist out there on the various well known channels (soundcloud,spotify,youtube,etc.), but the one that I enjoy the most is the one below.
Also pretty nice is the typical artwork in these vids. Love it!
Had it streaming for the past several weeks now. I'm even considering to mention it in the acknowledgements of my theses 馃槀
Have a great weekend you all!
