Music for Partying and Studying?

Music for Partying and StudyingGiven young people are our chosen demographic focus one suggested feature is advice on what music is useful for studying. However, miXXerS is specifically for people who go to parties. While the idea came up it is quite a divergence from the main aim of the site which targets DJs, party/concert goers and musicians and party producers/promoters. Given we are a team of all students that like music we are getting our music on as we work on this project.

The old-age Question: Do you prefer to have music while you’re working?  Some people, just like myself, most of the time have it on when completing assignments. However like others students either thrive off listening to music while study OR find having music on in the background incredibly distracting.

The timeless debate has been made. Meanwhile, a number of academic studies suggest listening benefits the brain, sleep pattern, the immune system and stress levels. This is extremely true for music lovers. Furthermore, many people, including researchers and scientists have a theory that music without lyrics such as Mosaic is the best music for study. According to research, listening to classical music help students in studying by increasing the concentration, improve the retention and ensuring more successful study. While is not the focus of miXXerS, we’ll turn our music on when we do our miXXers research!
