Any playlist that heavily features Toto, Kool and the Gang and Prince is a friend of mine. Circumvent the stresses and strains of the office by slipping into the mellow side of the 80s. Beware of constantly being asked to turn the speaker up.
Look out for; UB40, Fleetwod Mac, The Bangles
Cheerful tunes for the commute back. At least when you’re pushed against the window of the train you’re able to keep a smile on your face. Well, you hope.
Shake off the worries with; Kate Nash, Justin Bieber, Busted
Feel like killing it today? Big riffs, heavy drums and even more distortion; nothing helps motivate you more than feeling like nothing can stop you, and that’s exactly what you’ll get from this playlist.
Make colleagues tremble with; The Black Keys, Royal Blood, Wolfmother
We’ve all been there, no need to lie. For when work is dragging you down and you just want to wallow in self-pity, this playlist can help you do just that.

Everyone loves Reggae, period. Particularly useful on a Friday when you’re trying to motivate people to come to the pub, or knock off early. It’ll put even the coldest hearted management types in the mood.
Jam with; Bob Marley (of course), John Holt, Steel Pulse
Each office has them, those people that just want to listen to what’s in the chart. Indulge them once in a while, go on – you might like it.

Songs you had forgot about, and quite a few you wish you could. Get those big hits from the past back in your head. Not just for Thursday mind.

Last but not least, hark back to the time when indie ruled supreme in the UK and Alex Turner didn’t have the sharpest haircut in British music.
