I find that any type of music, regardless of how clean and continuous it may be, disrupts my reading experience by influencing the way I read, or making me think about what I’m listening to. The only times(well, mostly) I can read properly and without any type of difficulty is when I’m not very sober.
It’s impossible for me and I think it’s just comes down to my adhd. I will play Ghost in the Shell and Bladerunner atmospheric mixes when I read scifi for example. In silence my brain is too loud and doesn’t stop. If I’m reading and whatever white noises are playing it minimizes the gaps when the brain wanders. It was already busy processing the sound.
