MASTER LIST OF INSTRUMENTAL PLAYLISTS FOR WRITING (OR FOR STUDYING, MAKING ART, ETC.)
Tumblr media
I find that the perfect writing playlist can GREATLY enhance the writing experience. Even if it doesn't make your writing "better" (which it can, since it helps writers with visualization, tone, and mood), it can definitely make your writing flow easier!
Personally, words distract me when I'm writing, either by breaking my train of thought or by getting me too into the music so that I'm jamming out to my favorite tunes instead of writing.
Therefore, I've amassed a vast knowledge of instrumental music across a variety of media over a course of many years. Now here I am, deciding to share all of them with you!
Maddy’s Favorite Instrumental Songs
Just like the title says. All of the best pieces of instrumental music I've ever heard, compiled together with no regard for genre. It can be a bit of a whiplash playlist, but some amazing recs in there that I just like listening to in my free time, not just for writing.
Maddy’s Ultimate Instrumental Playlist
A mega compilation of 550+ fantastic instrumental music from a variety of media and genres. Kind of a whiplash playlist if you put it on shuffle, but is a great start for anyone looking to find what kind of instrumental music they like! Playlist Groupings in Order: Independent instrumental songs, live action movies, animated movies, animated tv shows, live action tv shows, video games.
Maddy's Instrumental for Sleep
Some more chill vibe instrumental for people who either A) want to sleep or B) want a relaxed playlist that won't distract you with loud volume and sudden changes in tempo or melody.
MISC PLAYLISTS:
you're a haggard adventurer discovering worlds beyond your wildest dreams
Music to inspire wonder and wanderlust, the kind of feeling you get when you finally reach the end of a mountain hike and see the world stretching out before you.
you're a hero who's just lost everything
Basically the most sad instrumental music I could find. A playlist for grief and revenge.
more beneath the cut :)
you're a cowboy in the great American West
Cowboy instrumental for all of your ambient and writing needs. Or if you just really want to feel like a cowboy.
you're a divine witness
Epic choir music (no English). Most religious, some not, but all kind of have that eerie sacred vibe. I listen to this while writing my book about angels and demons.
you’re a scholar uncovering the secrets of the universe
Great chill study playlist! Has the kind of same exploratory/discovery type feel as the haggard adventurer playlist, but more dark academia.
you’re a villain plotting to take over the world
Villain-coded instrumental! Sinister, dark, and/or unsettling.
you're an academic weapon
HIGH BPM STUDY PLAYLIST! Keeps me focused, hyped, and helps me work faster!
you're an ancient god
Playlist that gives an ancient/eerie vibe. But some ancient gods are merciful- so there are some upbeat songs for wonder and awe!
you're falling in love
Music that encapsulates what I think falling in love feels like. Very beautiful, tender, and uplifting instrumental.
you're fighting the final battle
Intense and epic battle music for all of your fight-scene-writing needs! Good for getting shit done, but isn't necessarily restricted to high BPM like the academic weapon playlist.
you're having a tea party
Refined instrumental for a tea party, including classical, big band, and some miscellaneous goodies.
you're in a chase scene
Music for writing chase scenes. Pretty good hype music, too. Includes soundtracks from classic chase scenes in popular media!
you're in the medieval times
Medieval-sounding music for all of your ambient and/or writing needs.
you’re in your childhood room. the door is open a crack. people talk softly downstairs.
A playlist dedicated to nostalgia, to the feeling of lying in bed with your nightlight on after being too tired to stay awake at your family get-together. Could either make your day or break your heart lmao
you're the happiest you've ever been
Lighthearted instrumental meant to lift your spirits! A playlist dedicated to the joys of the little things.

I'm on an old country music kick and wow, song subjects really did used to be more variable, huh? And more anticapitalist. Country specifically used to have a lot of 'fuck cops' and 'fuck my job.' Why can't modern music have more songs like that?
Anyways I just found a song called "Take this job and shove it" and if that doesn't encapsulate how much music has changed in the last 50 years (it's from 1977) I don't know what does.

ok, now it's Poland's turn on eurovision, so it's my reminder to lsiten to Jann and his song "Gladiator"
Personally I like the version during qualifications - I think you can hear more emotions during the song, than on official music vid. You should also listen to his other songs! :>
youtube
and music video for you:
youtube
Have fun listening to it and imaging AMVs or whatever with it! :>
And if you vote for Poland today I don't know you

PUNK WITH FLAVOR: A PLAYLIST FOR QUEER PUNKS & PUNKS OF COLOR
it's been over a year since i've last shared this playlist and i've since added a fuckton more songs (and shuffled around the order of songs a little) so here is another post to show off my PUNK WITH FLAVOR spotify playlist
i first started working on this playlist in 2019 after seeing how often queer folk and people of color (especially Black people) face bigotry or are disregarded in leftist communities, including in punk subculture. and this is all despite the fact that these demographics (again, especially Black folks) have always been the most revolutionary and inventive artists in punk subculture, pioneering the genre years before it gained mainstream attention.
and so, as a brown queer myself, i wanted to compile a punk playlist (which Does primarily consist of punk rock, but also blends together other genres as hardcore artists tend to do within their music) of bands fronted / largely comprised of queer artists and/or artists of color. this also includes several bands from outside the west!

this is like completely out of nowhere, but do you have any music recs? literally anything, i just get the vibe you have good taste
haha sure, and I appreciate it! I'm going to include below some youtube links to favorite songs and albums by favorite artists of mine. hope you like them!
The Cranberries - you know. the classics, but I most recommend Bury the Hatchet (album - full playlist)
Tune-Yards - Who Kill (album) and Nikki Nack and i can feel you creep into my private life (yeah sorry you need to listen to All of them)
Leikelei47 - start with Acrylic!
My Brightest Diamond - two standout songs are Pressure and This is My Hand
ARCA - literally everything. she has mastered transcyborgism.
Janelle Monae - Dirty Computer, sure, but also the Mad masterpiece that is the Tightrope MV (and more!)
Willow - her range is just amazing. From ARDIPITHECUS to <COPINGMECHANISM>
Jewel - Pieces of You (album - also ft. the most iconic subtitle ever, 'what we call human nature in actuality is human habit' (this blew my mind when i was 10)
Emma Ruth Rundle - start with May Our Chambers be Full, a collab with Thou.
Courtney Barnett - Sometimes I Sit and Think, and Sometimes I Just Sit (album - full playlist)
Julia Jacklin - Pressure to Party is So Much to me. Body is, somehow, even More.
Moses Sumney - græ is immaculate. it is genuinely a perfect album. no notes.
Lady Lamb - Crane Your Neck is an incredible song. So is Arkansas Daughter, in a very different way.
There are others too, of course, but this is a start with some of my favs. Some that I like feel too ubiquitous to mention - MCR, Against Me!, Rihanna, Enya, Mitski. But there are those too!
