Odd to see Gibbs on this list. Guy's an animal. I do listen to his music all the time during work.

piñata is extremely my shit

saw this illuminating interview/session he did with a therapist, I think it really portrayed the essence of his character: https://www.viceland.com/en_us/video/the-therapist-freddie-g... (cable provider 'paywall' iirc)

If you're looking for 2hr single tracks you'll be running into looped tracks or very long albums. For a group setting, pizza's reference to boiler room sessions is spot on. Those are dope and pretty safe bets.

I personally, will blast some Glenn Gould Bach Variations [1], or some Sleep Dopesmoker [2] when I really want a long collection of hypnotic sounds to lull me into flow.

Spotify has a 'deep focus' playlist that works really well. it's over 10 hours long. Two million people subscribe to it and with good reason.
