I find it hard to focus when music isn't playing (discuss.online)

If I need to concentrate, I must have music or a conversation in the background on TV or something. Does anyone else need something else pulling for their attention when they're concentrating? My mind will quickly wonder if I don't have music.

depends on the day, sometimes I need background music, sometimes a podcast, and on occasion a video. I just have to be careful with video's because if its too engaging it will fully distract me.

I have a subscription to DI.FM which has a very wide range of electronic music so generally I can find the right sound/tempo for my current mood and needs.
