iSkane: Study Hard | Sputnikmusic

iSkane 12.09.12	Rec me stuff that will make me smarter and not fail this semester.
SCREAM! 12.09.12	I can listen to just about anything except hip-hop while studying. Been going through the LotR soudntracks recently to psych myself up for the hobbit
sideburndude 12.09.12	Anything without lyrics jazz fusion works well
Winsomniac 12.09.12	post rock.
Funeralopolis 12.09.12	find it impossible to listen to anything while studying.
pmmets07 12.09.12	i find it impossible to not listen to anything while studying. too boring without muzack
Keyblade 12.09.12	listen to music, usually ambient
Eclecticist 12.09.12	hmm
pwalcher 12.09.12	DJ Shadow - Endtroducing is great for studying
toxin. 12.09.12	I actually listen to anything I want to, yesterday I was jamming T Swift while studying some linear algebra. I'm taking a break but I'll prob put on some post-rock while I read programming in twenty min or so
pmmets07 12.09.12	i'm takin linear algebra next semester, how is that shit?
Acanthus 12.09.12	Folk and power metal, aka Equilibrium and Blind Guardian. Also a huge fan of the Tron Legacy soundtrack.
KeithStone582 12.09.12	I usually either focus on post-rock or an album I practically have memorized. If I am not to familiar with an album it becomes distracting.
patman1001 12.09.12	i usually just shuffle my itunes and listen to whatever comes on
8bit 12.09.12	Definitely Endtroducing like pawlcher said. It's like you're in a suspense movie, and you're doing something super important while the music plays. I have to stay up all night to study math/biology..
pwalcher 12.09.12	I just can't listen to music with lyrics or I'll sing them instead of study. That's a big reason DJ Shadow has been great for my exams lately. Crystal Castles has muffled lyrics so they're not bad either. (II and III though, I is shitty)
sixdegrees 12.09.12	some jazz or post-rock.
MichaelSnoxall 12.09.12	I sit at home and don't study because I don't go to school or college.
Uranium 12.09.12	I open spotify and let the escapades begin
deathofasalesman 12.09.12	listen to instrumental music you've never heard before
toxin. 12.09.12	"i'm takin linear algebra next semester, how is that shit?" It depends on a few things. How are you with math? How hard is the course? (e.g., I'm taking Honors LA whereas most engineers just take regular LA. Apparently the difference in the two is huge, and my class is really rigorous and proof-based. My brother's LA class was a watered down econ version though and he breezed through it.) It's a lot different than calculus. It's related to algebra and geometry, but only tangentially so (pun intended). IMO you can BS your way through the class with an easy prof, but to have a solid understanding, you need to do proofs or other logical reasoning to really get stuff down. Some things are formulaic like eigenvectors/eigenvalues/determinants but honestly that's only 30% of my class. Most of it is conceptual. But yeah it's definitely highly dependent on you as a student and as a mathematician, as well as on your professor's style
Trebor17 12.09.12	Boards of Canada Burial
Ire 12.09.12	jazz yeah anything that isn't free jazz i guess idk
oltnabrick 12.10.12	Danny Brown.
Chortles 12.10.12	i jam whatever when i'm studying
AtomicWaste 12.10.12	"I sit at home and don't study because I don't go to school or college." This. It's nice to have a degree and not worry about the cramming. But I'll probably be going back for another one soon anyway...
FadedSun 12.10.12	Skyrim - Atmospheres. I don't need anything else. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H1VreyJwMVM
ViperAces 12.10.12	Today and last night I listened to Kid A and it was awesome but whatever to be honest.
demigod93 12.10.12	used to study to 5 all the time in high school
Uranium 12.10.12	yeah radiohead is always a good choice
FigNewtns 12.10.12	matrices are an engineers best friend tbh, tho i have never had the time to take an LA class b/c its not a core requirement and i already have a pretty hefty load class-wise. hardest math based class i've taken though by far is probably differential equations which occasionally requires the use of LA.
KSK1 12.10.12	Brand New
Uranium 12.10.12	yeah i keep hearing diff EQs is so tough. I am finishing up calc II this semester & I want to take diff eqs just to see what all the hype is about.
