I love playing music while playing chess, helps me get hyped and motviated to play the next game.

Mainly when it's uplifting music, and I usually play best when listening to music, and my mind isn't drowning in calculations. That actually hinders me, since I can't think clearly. I believe the term was Chess Blindness, but I've noticed that I've been less likely to blunder games when I play with music in. When I'm trying to immerse in the real world, I have it playing out loud. If I'm trying to immerse into my device when playing, I play it in the device.

I've tried to listen to songs while playing chess but it was a bit distracting because it depends on which type of songs you're listening! But I found it a bit good while doing that.
