I listen almost exclusively to EDM mixes.

Podcasts or YouTube videos are usually about an hour long, and the songs are mixed so they flow continuously from one to the next.

I find the constant beat, and somewhat repetitive melodies and rhythms help to get me into a state of flow.

I like this site: https://www.focusatwill.com/music/#player . My favorites are the Focus Spa and Einstein's Genius channels.

Dance drum and bass. ironically it keeps me at a mid level steady pace. either that or spotify's "music for concentration" playlist.

I play sitar or flute music on youtube. I feel that it increases my concentration a lot and helps me focus as it doesn't has any lyrics and the music calms the mind.
