About This Page

I spend a lot of time working at a computer. Although I like many genres of music, I prefer ambient electronic music when I'm working on political science projects. I don't like hearing songs with words when I'm writing or editing words, it's distracting. I don't think a lot of people are familiar with ambient electronic music. I was turned on to this kind of music when I lived in San Francisco after college and still love it. These are some of the tracks/sites I listen to, I hope you enjoy them!
