Needs a certain attitude but this is a very soothing sound track for focus amidst the clutter and scatter of the mind.
It lasts an hour but 10minutes of it works for me:- https://youtu.be/agqBz2Wngaw
I'd be interested to read what others think.

I think it's similar in style to other generative music. Folks who find it appealing might like the apps Brian Eno came up with eg Bloom or Scape - see here

Bloom disturbs rather than settles,Scape is better though for me sounds too much like my Tinnitus affliction.

I found the Incanta I linked to,to be much more mellow and attracted my attention in a soothing meditative way that required focused listening.
Obviously personal thing but thought I'd share it,it may be of some use to someone,the author has some other pieces similar on his YT channal that are worth a listen if anyone's interested.

Nice...
Unconnected but, over the last few weeks, I've been on an interesting muscial journey, which began under sad circumstances, when I learned of the passing of a musician called Mira Calix, of whom I had not heard, in the form of an R3 Late Junction special, celebrating her work. Only 51
Her music and that of associated acts, eg Philip Jeck, Autechre and many others (see Warp's 2 early compilations, Artificial Intelligence (here) and Artificial Intelligence II (here) if interested) turned out to be right up my street ie ambient / electronic / drone. Last twist of the journey down that rabbit hole, turned out to be one 'Abul Mogard' (here)...
Have playlists centred on such, playing in the background quite often now, when not listening to R3. Droney & dirgey, but not quite as despearate as, say William Basinski's Disintegration Loops.

ps - with the attachement of battery technology as part of more and more cycle-type vehicles, these days, I'm noticing - or rather, hearing - music blaring out from passing contrivences more frequently. Anyone else noticed this?
