My study mix is unparalleled.

Explosions in the Sky, Appleseed Cast (Sagarmantha, Low Level Owl), Broken Social Scene, Grizzly Bear (Yellow House), Jose Gonzalez, Instrumentals by Phoenix, etc...

Good study music has to be able to fade into the background easily.

You're welcome.

I really like the new Inception soundtrack.

When I saw the movie, I immediately noticed how awesome the soundtrack is, especially Dream is Collapsing. Hans Zimmer is a boss

I just go to pandora radio, and use a "hard rock" station, gives a bit of variety, and helps me stay awake.

Haven't heard of the rest, but EIS is great for studying. And yes, it does have to fade into the background. Try listening to Drake and studying at the same time.
