Not really music, but I like the sound of repetitive mechanical equipment. Printing press, assembly lines. Nothing with super loud noises, just a room full of well oiled machines. Also traffic, no horns.

I, too, have been lulled to sleep at night with my headset on by the sounds of my Factorio factory running

The album Absolute Garbage by Garbage is pretty good for this

I find noise rock and general noise music to work well for me. Ronaldo and the loaf, panoram, dog milk by palm and revolution 9 by the beatles. Also a select amount of music by the residents.

Not everyones jam but It's disruptive and less than predictable. It can keep me from distractions allowing me to focus and if I wish focus on not focusing on anything.

Yo, I love those beats. They are plenty enjoyable as background music.

Math rock is great for this. Check out toe - the book about my idle plot on a vague anxiety

Saw them live a few years ago. There was a guy sitting next to the drummer the whole show. Didn't know why he was there until towards the end the drummer started throwing his drums around and screaming into the overhead mics. The guy would jump up from his chair, fix the drum set and then sit back down. Such insane energy for such a chill band. Highly recommend

I feel like this isn't what you were going for, but chill music is music to have thoughts to.

If you don't want to room to think, put on some Frontierer.

I have two moods for this:

One is a playlist composed of most of the library of songs by PVRIS. I don't know why, but their music just really clicks with me; I can listen to that playlist all day with no problems (I usually hate listening to the same song more than once or twice a day).

The other is a playlist of non-combat music from The Elder Scrolls. Really good for gentle background music.

Recently I have started using this app called Nightwave Plaza. It has a surprisingly good selection of chill music that I can play in the background.
