As the topic title says - what music do you listen to while programming/developing things? Seems like there are a lot of programmers/webdevelopers/etc. on here I usually listen to music from Jamendo, specifically instrumental music. Especially Roger Subirana Mata, zero-project, and Filthy Kicks are some favorites I often have playing when working on things. I also have the Trine (from the Humble Bundle) soundtrack playing now and then, but most of my music comes from Jamendo.

Like my post(s)? 12TSXLa5Tu6ag4PNYCwKKSiZsaSCpAjzpu I just can't wait for fall/winter. My furnace never generated money for me before. I'll keep mining until my furnace is more profitable.

I find it nice to code listening to soundtracks from strategy games, such as StarCraft or C&C series. Also, I've had a coding night with this looped: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-ecvLRxb3MUIt was... Fun. But usually I just put all the music I have on my PC in my player and set it to random.

Most music will distract me if I listen to it while trying to program, so I usually go for things without vocals. Just lately, I've been listening to NIN's Ghosts I-IV and Maserati's Inventions for the New Season a lot. They seem to be a good mix of energy and ambience.

Strangely, listening to music has an opposite effect for me. I usually focus too much on programming when listening to music, so much that many hours will pass and I will not realise it. It was a good thing when I had an 8-5 job.

Can't program without some Hilary Duff! Mostly I listen to rock or metal while programming though. Erm, not "screamy" metal, more like At Vance, HammerFall, Kamelot, or even Within Temptation. Oh, and Mandy Moore - Only Hope, one of my favorites. Soft piano helps :-)

Reminds me that Edguy and Lordi are great programming band when you want to push out a lot of code (quality may vary )

Maserati very much reminds me of the music in the Death Note series.

I don't do any programming, but when I'm doing anything creative on the computer, I usually have Pandora on the Busdriver station.

That's how it works for me, but only with the right kind of music. Maserati very much reminds me of the music in the Death Note series.
I remember one of the Death Note OPs would always make me laugh. I only watched part of the series. Bet you can guess where I stopped

Psychedelic Trance, in all it's sub-styles, but mostly stuff like Azax Syndrom, Bliss, Penta, Rinkadink, Shift, etc. But i guess you probably figured that out, based on my forum username
