Listen to this. If you're working solo it'll tap something primal. If you're working with others it'll scare the hell out them:

Heilung is hard to describe - some sort of Scandinavian experimental folk group with throat singing and percussion played on bones. Very cool, but kinda nightmarish. Perfect for sharing with coworkers.

After XTC I’d say The Wedding Present is the next logical step.

If you like "Club Classic" type music from the 90's and 2000's. Heart Radio from the UK is pretty good on Fridays from noon to 3pm, a non-stop style program.

Darude is playing at The Roadhouse tonight. Maybe just listen to Sandstorm on a 4 hour loop.

Also Toto's Africa is being played on 8 solar powered iPhones in the Namibian desert right now. There's a live stream. Tune in and see if it ever stops.

Given that I've been on a huge R&B/soul kick lately, I'll suggest Wilson Pickett
