However, a strong study playlist is key in being successful. These are some recommendations from the Howl staff. Hopefully, these songs will encourage someone to create an individual study playlist for a wonderful term.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"><strong>Brianna Lelieur<\/strong> | Entertainment Editor<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u201cThe Last Cherry Blossom\u201d by Rudemanners \u2014 This is a Lo-fi song off an entire playlist, it is upbeat and very soulful.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"><strong>Rylie Horrall<\/strong> | Managing Editor<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u201cI Miss Those Days\u201d by Bleachers \u2014 My study playlist changes a lot but this song is almost always on it. I like listening to it because it has a mellow and relaxing beat that helps me focus without the words being too distracting.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"><strong>Allison Vanderzanden<\/strong> | Lifestyle Editor<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">&#8220;Cassini&#8221; by Curtis Schweitzer \u2014 I enjoy this song because it&#8217;s soft enough to not distract me while studying. I also like that the melody isn&#8217;t overly repetitive or predictable.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"><strong>Sean Martinez<\/strong> | Copy Editor<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u201cVertigo\u201d by Khalid \u2014 I don\u2019t often listen to music while studying, but for me, it\u2019s easy to get lost in the process of writing or studying while this song is playing. Plus, this song is about Khalid asking himself the big questions, making it a great song for concentrating on whatever task is at hand.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"><strong>Kyle Morden<\/strong> | Head Designer<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u201ccomfy vibes\u201d by LilyPichu \u2014 Sit back and relax; it&#8217;s time to get comfortable with some Lo-fi beats. No matter how stressful studying can be, this song will create a calm atmosphere for any listener.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"><strong>Cora McClain<\/strong> | Editor-in-Chief<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u201cI\u2019ll Keep You Safe\u201d by sagun \u2014 There\u2019s a Lo-fi song for every occasion, and studying is no different.\u00a0 I\u2019m easily distracted and lyrical songs often make it harder for me to focus on work, so Lo-fi is my go to. The repetition and distortion that sagun\u2019s uses keeps my brain engaged for long study sessions while not breaking my focus.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"><strong>Kiara Wehrenberg<\/strong> | Photo Editor<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u201cDream Catcher&#8221; by Damu the Fudgemunk \u2014 This song is good for me to study because there are no lyrics for me to get distracted by while writing. I also like how the music is upbeat enough for me to stay focused and not fall asleep \u2014 most songs by this artist have a similar style perfect for studying.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"><strong>Stephanie Moschella<\/strong> | Digital Media Manager\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u201c3 Nights\u201d by Dominic Fike \u2014 This song gives me the summer vibes that we all missed out on this year. It\u2019s calming and melancholic, and leaving it on repeat helps drown out all the noise around me while I study.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"><strong>Sydney Carpenter<\/strong> | News Editor\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u201cDr. Wanna Do\u201d by\u00a0 Caro Emerald\u00a0 \u2014 After a long study session I like listening to some electric swing or Jazz to boost my mood and overall attitude. However, I usually don\u2019t listen to anything while I work \u2014 it\u2019s difficult for me to focus as is, and adding music to the mix doesn\u2019t help me in my studies.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/playlist\/4s2xa7Xr58l4YDKE26X7eQ?si=uZSu8mNgS2SSjNyfrKDwOg\">Listen to the playlist here!<\/a><\/p>\r\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A collection of study songs from The Western Howl staff<\/p>\n<p>The Western Howl Collective<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1094,"featured_media":16214,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_seopress_robots_primary_cat":"","_seopress_titles_title":"","_seopress_titles_desc":"","_seopress_robots_index":"","_lmt_disableupdate":"","_lmt_disable":"","_et_pb_use_builder":"off","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"","footnotes":"","_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[162,163,161,54,167,168,164,166,165],"class_list":["post-16213","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-entertainment","tag-brianna","tag-brianna-lelieur","tag-entertainment","tag-music","tag-playlist","tag-spotify","tag-study","tag-study-playlist","tag-studying"],"modified_by":"The Western Howl","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/wou.edu\/westernhowl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/16213","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/wou.edu\/westernhowl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/wou.edu\/westernhowl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wou.edu\/westernhowl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1094"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wou.edu\/westernhowl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=16213"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/wou.edu\/westernhowl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/16213\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wou.edu\/westernhowl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/16214"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/wou.edu\/westernhowl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=16213"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wou.edu\/westernhowl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=16213"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wou.edu\/westernhowl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=16213"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
