Hi all. I often use background music in class when students are doing various activities. Sometimes I use the music as a timer to let me know when the activity finishes. But overall, I use it to put some energy in the class. I just wanted to share two of my favorite play lists on YouTube in case you're interested.
The first is my all time favorite. Ehrling – Nu Lounge Bar Music 2017 (Mix #1). Students love it, and I often listen to this when I am doing work, too.
The second is Feeling Happy – Best of Vocal Deep House Music Chill Out – Mix By Regard #5. Some good stuff in there and students have always enjoyed this one as well.
On a personal note, I am a big fan of Buckethead. Don't let the KFC hat fool you. I've never used him class and you might not like some of his heavy stuff. But I recommend checking out his relaxing music. It has been great for my own personal work music.
