A wonderfully balanced music and white noises, it's awesome to hear rain that does not sound like someone's frying ice cubes. AND IT'S 7 HOURS! Thank you!

[@lavernasilver6999]

That’s so weirdly descriptive but I completely understand

[@JoshConder]

Every rain video I’ve ever listened to sounded like someone frying bacon.

[@pb.pb.pb.pb.]

lol i never fried ice what the hell 🤣

[@JorgeGarcia-ig9fe]

Must be a love thing❤

[@BazingerBazinga-f3k]

I've been rewatching this video a lot, but even though I've read this comment many times the "frying ice cubes" makes me laugh to read it every time I click back on this video

[@Glub2]

I read about 3/4 of a novella to this, took an hour long nap then finished the rest of the book all with this still on in the background. I'll say waking up to this music and picking up a book where you left off is some of the greatest immersion I've ever experienced

[@huyenle7385]

Please consider downloading and keeping a copy of it on your computer somewhere while still supporting the chanel. Not long before I also have a music video like this which I put on everyday but one random day I just can’t find it anywhere anymore. Eventhough I managed to downloaded some of the songs in the playlist, having the video taken down was still such a huge loss.

This music is very soothing. To anyone reading this, I wish you a peaceful rest and I hope that tomorrow brings you sunshine and smiles.

[@darkpiano8]

I have discovered that classical music can be played in the background when studying literally any subject and it never diverts my attention like pop songs. its amazing

[@meheralt]

yeah. i think its because songs with words are more distracting and confuse you

I'm convinced 4am is the time of day most people are asleep. Most people go to bed before 4 and wake up after 4. It's the most calming and quiet hour of the night.

[@hannahlanai]

it's a time you can have all to yourself. no where you need to be and no one that needs anything from you. you can just exist.

[@lew-e]

I love 4am. Waking up before 5 is pretty awesome. I used to do 330 and go to the gym. That gets hard after a year. Its like a strict time diet. 4am is nice.

[@Selnatal]

I highly agree on this one.

[@foreveryoung424]

Sounds like the first line of a book tbh. One I would read in a heartbeat

[@error_404notfound6]

i love the morning which is why i wake up at 3:30

[@Moonlighplaylist]

Being awake at night is such a peace i can finally breathe normally Its just better because the whole world is sleeping while ur awake

[@lew-e]

I used to love walking home from the bars in college either after a light night of partying or after getting off work. It would be 3 AM and only a couple souls even moving around in town. You had the whole place to yourself and it just seemed so different. I miss that freeing feeling a lot these days.

FINALLY I have one of those videos people say "omg this video helped me write so much last night" that I can _also_ say that about. I have no idea what magic you worked with this one, but there's not a single piece that brings me out of the zone. I feel more focused, more driven, more patient, and ready to keep writing. Thanks!

[@VintageOldies]

Over the past three years, I've consistently played this playlist, marking the beginning of a lovely autumn season. It sets the ambiance for activities like cleaning, cooking, baking, with candles adding warmth, and the delightful scents of pine cones and cinnamon. There's also the delight of my kids playing football and precious family moments, it’s like stepping into heaven each time.

[@azrani2023]

That sounds so amazing to be honest, I might adapt this habit from you if I may.

[@ORESTIA617]

I’ve taken such a long break from reading.. so when I checked and saw I’ve read for 42 minutes. It made me feel happy. Now, that might not seem long but Ever since I got more advanced tech I’ve been obsessed with video games like Roblox or just texting in general. Never ever continued my love for reading. But now that I have free time.. I just feel like I’ve missed a lot in the reading world. I love books so much.

This Dark Academia Playlist is top-tier from the various ones I have listened to. It is more subtle, but still noticeably catered to the Dark Academia genre with a great balance of soft and gentle rain. Love, love, love it! 😁

[@foreveryoung424]

I left myself behind tonight, took a walk trough the dark alleys of my mind. Watching you sleep so soundly, smiling, breathing calmly. You are like a guiding light, all those shimmering stars in your eyes. Oh, nothing can match that brightness, you're fearless, walking beside me. And maybe I can find myself tonight laying by your side. Perfect video for writing. ❤

Wonderful pacing and by far the best ambient track I have found. The music is no too simplistic but also does not demand overt attention. It’s very soothing and cozy too. Well done!

[@crazygt850]

Aside from its help to improve focus, the best thing about a long playlist like this is it help to gauge how much of my time is spent actually being focused. Because I know if I'm not focusing this playlist is paused.

[@Karpatkin]

Everytime I hear music like this, although im not fond of reading it encourges me to write. Or I also draw, do homework or study. Really calming

[@swiftypopty1102]

Who would've thought I'd turn into a reader! Had some free time and realized I haven't read a book in a while. Watched a bunch of KZbin book recs but felt overwhelmed. Lucky for me, I found "7 Habits of Highly Effective Teens". Not only was it my first non-fiction book, but it was also filled with interesting stories and valuable lessons. I was so into it that I read 4 hours a day and finished it in just 3 days. It changed the way I think, helped me prioritize, and improved my communication skills. I was blown away by the impact a book can have on your life. Currently reading "How to Win Friends and Influence People" to understand people better. Bottom line: just pick up a book that interests you, no need to finish it. Focus on understanding and applying what you read.
