        Yes, certain types of music 🎶 However, not all music 🎶will work. We're talking classical & jazz for studying, then country & pop for tasks.

        Only if you dont play with the changing of the song and it only drowns out the sporatic noises. When you concentrate the music disappears

        I find the opposite to be true. I can't concentrate on music or podcasts or online courses without doing a task.
