music2work2 is pretty much what it says - it's good music to have on in the background while you are working on something - particularly if you are in front of a computer screen. The music is instrumental, piano driven and anywhere from 10 minutes to 30 minutes in length. It is meant to stimulate your brain while you create something magical - or even something mundane - either way - it makes the work easier - have a listen:

I’m not sure what I expected as far as the music goes from Groovy Star. The name, I suppose, or for whatever reason, I guess I was anticipating loud, screeching, heavy rock music. I was wrong. Groovy Star is one of our friends from iSound.com.
I like this music. Most of the songs on the iSound page are instrumental; there are a few vocals. Groovy Star is apparently the work of one person, Michael Featherstone. All the songs have a prominent, rhythmic beat, and pretty melody – it is the kind of music that makes you feel good.
There are several pieces that I would say are favorites, such as “Springs,” “Dreaming Droids” but my most favorite piece is “Sundown.” It is a little slower tempo than most of the others but still with the prominent percussion and beautiful melody. It more closely resembles the sound of music2work2. Groovy Star reminds me of “Heath” and “Richard” - they too are songs of medium tempo, lovely melody – uplifting, hopeful, pleasant musical experiences.
If you like pop-rock, electronica music, I suggest you give a listen to Groovy Star. If you're interested in online music, new artists - that kind of thing - also check out http://isound.com - this from their About page:
