Comfy chair? Check. Good coffee? Check. But what about the music? When it comes to working from home, you want a soundtrack that will keep you upbeat and on the ball until you clock off. Enter FluxMusic, the streaming app from local indie radio station FluxFM that offers a welcome break from your usual workday playlists. The service has 40 themed channels streaming 24/7 music that is curated not by cloud-based algorithms but Berlin-based humans. For the ideal accompaniment to your weekday there are stations for every genre from reggae right through to techno, and once you are done working you can tune into themed streams like “Yoga Sounds” for your time on the mat and house party tunes from “Clubsandwich”. And the good news is you won’t have to reach for your wallet to get this ad-free music since the app is totally free to download. You might never want to leave your home office again…
