I've been using https://mynoise.net/ a lot lately when I need to concentrate or when I am in an open plan office. I usually just put on some instrumental music but lately I've been needing something totally ambient and this has lots of options and seems to be legit non-ai. Just sharing

One of my go to's for the various noise colours - white, brown, pink etc. They also have an app which is pretty good, does drain your battery a little though at least on my 5 yr old phone. My other background music go to is DroneZone on SomaFM.

If you have an iPhone that has background sounds built in too. Not the highest quality but portable and useful for a non-home bathroom

Settings > Audio and Visual > background sounds

I've been using this Goblin Music to Study and Relax to.

Maybe Max Richter's discography. The full version of Sleep goes for 8 hours
