Focus Music
Your Personal Concentration Soundtrack
You sit down to work. You open Spotify. Twenty minutes later, you're still scrolling through playlists, trying to find the "perfect" study music. Sound familiar?
I built this extension because I was tired of losing focus before I even started working.
The Problem With Finding Focus Music
We all know that the right music helps us concentrate. Classical music for studying, lo-fi beats, ambient soundscapes—research confirms that certain sounds improve focus and productivity.
But here's the irony: searching for the perfect focus music destroys the very focus we're trying to create.
You open a streaming app. You see thousands of playlists. You start one, skip three tracks, try another playlist, get distracted by recommendations. Before you know it, you've spent your best creative energy just picking background music.
This is decision fatigue in action. And it's stealing your productive hours.
A Simpler Approach
What if your focus music was just... there ? One click. Instantly playing. No decisions required.
That's exactly what this Chrome extension does.
Click the icon. Press play. Get to work.
The extension lives in your browser toolbar, ready whenever you need it. No new tabs to open. No playlists to browse. No algorithms trying to sell you premium subscriptions.
Just pure, continuous study music designed for one purpose: helping you concentrate.
Six Genres, Infinite Focus
Everyone's brain responds differently to sound. Some people thrive with lofi music and chill beats. Others need classical music for focus. Some want complete ambient immersion, while others prefer the energy of piano melodies or synthwave.
That's why the extension includes six carefully curated genres:
Lo-fi
Those warm, nostalgic lofi beats to study to that have helped millions focus. Relaxed tempos, minimal lyrics, perfect for sustained concentration.
Classical
Timeless classical study music from composers who understood how music affects the brain. Proven to enhance cognitive performance.
Ambient
Atmospheric soundscapes that create a cocoon of calm. Ideal for deep work and creative projects.
Jazz
Smooth jazz study music for a sophisticated work atmosphere. Complex enough to engage, gentle enough not to distract.
Piano
Pure piano melodies for writing, reading, and contemplative work. Simple yet powerful.
Synthwave
Retro electronic energy for those who need momentum. Perfect when you need to power through tasks.
Toggle any combination on or off. The player randomly selects from your enabled genres, giving you variety without the paralysis of choice.
The Binaural Edge
Here's where it gets interesting.
You can layer binaural beats on top of any music genre. These are scientifically-designed audio frequencies that influence brainwave patterns. Different frequencies create different mental states.
The extension includes five presets:
- Sleep — Theta wave frequencies for winding down
- Meditation — Calming tones for mindfulness practice
- Relax — Gentle frequencies to reduce stress
- Focus — Optimized for concentration and deep work
- Cognition — Alpha brain waves for enhanced learning and memory
This isn't mystical nonsense. It's applied neuroscience. Binaural beats work by presenting slightly different frequencies to each ear, causing your brain to perceive a third tone at the difference between them. This can gently guide your brainwaves toward states associated with focus, relaxation, or creativity.
Add the Focus preset to your lo-fi beats, and you've created a personalized concentration soundtrack backed by actual brain science.
Why It Works
Most productivity tools add complexity to your life. This one removes it.
No accounts to create. No preferences to configure. No social features demanding your attention. No premium tiers locking away the good stuff.
Just open your browser, click the icon, and let the music play. Smooth crossfades between tracks mean no jarring interruptions. The music flows continuously while you work.
When you're done, click pause. That's it.
