"For study" here meaning "to listen to as background music while you are studying?"
I've used Satisfactory and Infinifactory's music for that, both have kind of a "make you feel smart" vibe to them.

Distant Worlds albums are great orchestral versions of Final Fantasy themes. I use them at work when I need to concentrate and block out my peers.
Stronghold
FTL? Into the Breach? Diablo II, Cities Skylines, SimCity 3000, The Sims.
60 minutes of N64 chill tracks on yt
Honorable mention: Soma.fm
soma.fm not game music but the amount of vibes they offer means that one of those vibes will likely fit your study music needs :) and commercial free.
Zelda botw. Lots of piano mixes on youtube
It's relaxing until the Guardian music kicks in!
I was playing the Stardew Valley OST at work this week. That's music to get shit done at a relaxing pace.
Doom or doom eternal.
How do you study when your entire body is urging you to bang your head to the tune?
Tunic has an excellent soundtrack that's one of my favorites for work music. https://invidious.reallyaweso.me/watch?v=nnvjKf_mRYM
Stellaris is quite good for that
Paradox games are pretty good (Stellaris particularly)
Portal/Portal 2 aswell
Solar 2 is also a personal fav but hard to find OST other than on YT
Anything from Supergiant Games
I just make a point to remove the songs with lyrics because lyrics distract me.
Depends on a lot of things but for deep focus I like the X3:TC soundtrack
Stray has a great soundtrack
I use Wh40k: Mechanicus & Ixion
Hogwarts Legacy (Study Themes from the Original Video Game Soundtrack)
A lot of the Final Fantasy games have Piano Collections albums. I particularly like FF XV.
I listen to the Diablo 2 & 3 or Skyrim OST when reading.
I wrote both my bachelor's and master's thesis to Watch The Skies from Skyrim on loop. Yes, the same track all day for weeks.
My brain autofills in dragon roars when listening
The Cyberpunk OST goes crazy, and the Risk Of Rain franchise has some killer stuff.
Crono Cross, anything from monster hunter Tri and up.
FEZ has a great soundtrack. Also Sword & Sworcery.
Something I've been using during work these days is Maplestory bgm playlists. Reminds me of my youth, and have a very calming effect on me :)
Hey! Just wanted to come back and thank you for mentioning RPGamer Radio!
I've been playing it at work, and I'm really enjoying it. Thanks!
You're welcome :)
Uplink is a game about hacking that's got fantastic tracker music for it's soundtrack. Blue Valley is just great background music, no strong melodies, just chords and vibes.
