Quote from armaniman:

I used to be a nationally broadcast classical music radio announcer, and I'm not only very familiar with classical music, but I listen to it as well when I trade. I basically agree with jmcgaw's post ----- I think Mozart is ideal both for brain stimulation and brain relaxation. A battery of studies on animals, plants and infants has increasingly shown that Mozart has no peer ---- among any music whatsoever ---- in stimulating healthy plant growth and easing tension and anxiety in animals and humans. But Baroque is good too for the zippy rhythms and the exultant, expressively elegant feelings it generally features.

Quote from jmcgraw:

If you really want to get your brain working, listen to music from the baroque (bach, handel, etc) or classical periods (motzart, haydn, beethoven, etc). Tchaikovsky may sound nice, but I dont think music from the Romantic period has been proven to stimulate the brain. (I may be wrong)

What about opera?

I thought it was just me!! Baroque is the best, I like harpsichord personally. Magnatune.com is the only place I go for music nowadays.

as heard on radio soulwax...

(volume 2 is the only one commercially available, only in the benelux region. however, they've been bootlegged from here to eternity from their radio broadcasts, dj gigs, etc.)

and the website has some of the sets playing as well.
