AI generated music to improve focus, relaxation and sleep

FYI: someone from the company just responded in a sister comment

Would appreciate a checkbox so I could disable the CPU-saturating visualization without having to hide the page.

Sure, this probably helps you focus better than a standard studio album.

I would argue that 90% of the benefit of this music is just from the extended intervals of contiguous playing, so there's no "break" disruption. I think any DJ (esp. deep house) worth half their salt can get someone "in the zone" for half an hour at a time. And artists devoted to minimalist ambient or trambient can get you going for hours straight.

Honestly the "Focus: Intense" or whatever I find super annoying. It's got this constant anxious buildup feel to it and never fucking breaks into what I would consider that peak when I start playin my keyboard like a goddamn piano.

Basically, no fucking way would I even consider shelling out an additional Spotify subscription for some "high tech" whale song machine.

Can you provide evidence of the effectiveness of your methods? Are there peer reviewed studies that sustain your statements? Spot checking the site, there isn't much convincing evidence (a double blind trial with very few subjects that you sponsored is not really convincing).

For the productivity obsessed on HN making negative comments, I'm surprised more haven't tried this kind of stuff out.

I have used white noise or waves for a long time to drown out outdoor noise around me.

My initial start with this kind of stuff was listening to various stations on somafm.

I like finding music that fits well in the background, isn't too engaging or something I'm familiar with, and hopefully devoid of vocals so I kept looking and came across a few instrumental tracks on itunes.

There's maybe a reason babies benefit from wave/sleep machines. White noise does have an effect that can aid in focus and concentration, science, placebo, or otherwise, I'm happy for the sustained productivity boost I've been able to have for several years.

I did buy brain.fm on a whim a while back it has replaced simplynoise or more to that point. If there was a bit more information published on how it was put together I'd be interested, and if not, I'd probably keep using it.

Would like it to be a downloadable or app that I could keep with me. Some things aren't for those who can't put themselves in other people's shoes, or imagine something may work for others that doesn't seem to be imaginable or work for them.
