N/A May 16

anything May 16

Anything I happen to like. I have a wide range of playlists, which I play all the time. I don't need silence to translate, but I do need downtempo instrumental music to proofread

Total silence May 17

But, actually, the "official soundtrack" of my translation sessions should be this one

Why isn't May 17

Why isn't pop or rock or metal on the list? I like to listen to music that I can't make out the words to, so... either death metal or foreign pop music.
