I’ve been experimenting with Rainy Mood recently (I think someone on LW linked to this but I don’t remember who). Not exactly music but it’s interesting. I don’t know if it actually helps because I’m not being totally consistent about only playing it when I’m working. Also, some people might find the sound of rain depressing (I find it kind of comforting).
I use Rainy Mood too. I need something to block out background noise while I work, but music distracts me to the point that I become unproductive. Rain is comforting to me too, so that’s an added plus. I also downloaded the audio from this video which allows me to listen on the go, without internet access.

I wasn’t aware of Rainy Mood, but I think I’m going to like it. I’m in the same situation as Pearwood; work is noisy but music distracts me.
For anyone who, like me, can’t leave a tab open with Flash running all the time, the audio file is here.
This link seems to be broken now. I don’t suppose you still know where the file is available?
Link updated. It’s possible it changes, though.
Thank you!
You’re welcome. I also recently became aware of ChatterBlocker, which costs money, but has a demo and seems quite effective and less repetitive.
