Literally anything as long as I take ritalin first. Turns out I have ADHD.
Ensiferum - Run from the crushing tide
I put on Kickstart My Heart by Motley Crue on the way to work when I want to get amped up
Sunset Neon - Tonight https://youtu.be/IUvvGf8T7wM?si=xVJ9gCMi-vAudZ0H
A single song isn’t sufficient to get anything done and you’ll inevitably distract yourself by constantly fiddling with your music choice once the song is over in the next 2 - 10 minutes. Don’t fall into the spotify trap. Instead put on a full album and truly focus for an hour or so at a time.
That said I’ll put on something like Paul Oakenfold’s Global Underground. Disc1+2 which is around 2hours of music. Or a Led Zeppelin album (~45min), or maybe a Symphony.
Ween - Friends (Friends EP Mix)
Really the whole Friends EP is pretty solid for getting stuff done.
Rotting Christ - Dead Poem.
Excellent choice.
Listen, that song gets a lot of meme hate but it is a fucking GOOD SONG.
Pants.
It’s an album, but: The Fabulous Steel Guitar Sound of Pete Drake. It’s instrumental, upbeat, and just the right amount of interesting to just jam out to and get 'er done.
Speed metal or techno - Daft Punk’s Around the World and all of God Hates Us All by Slayer come to mind.
In the house - in a heartbeat (28 days later theme). It sounds oddly motivating.
