- kaisix 8y agoAwesome. loving the list !
- binarynate 8y agoThe lo-fi hip hop radio channels on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hHW1oY26kxQ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hHW1oY26kxQ Anything else is too distracting for me.
- ggm 8y agoClassical. Bach, Mozart. Chopin. I used to code to a tape of 1960s by the kinks, the Mama's and Papa's, Donovan, but that was a more communal exploratory type situation. I find now lycics don't help.
- mimixco 8y agoEDM
- InboxZeroEmail 8y agoI love listening to the sounds of nature while I'm coding. TRON like music is brilliant as it gives me a lot of energy! Anything with spoken words or a thump beat is too distracting for me!
- kleer001 8y agoGoovy things without lyrics. There's tonnes of Calm Radio / LoFi Hip Hop stations on Youtube these days.
- sethammons 8y agoI tend to go with electronica, but require it to be wordless (or very, very few words). I originally picked that because I did not like it; I would be able to tune it out and it would block ambient conversations and noise. I now like a lot of what Pandora plays on that channel, and it is still very tune-outable. I mostly just need something to prevent hearing conversations. My brain tunes right into them. My wife used to watch TV to fall asleep to. The slightest conversation going on there can wake me and then, despite how tired I may be, my brain wakes up. Fwiw, she is currently in a no-going-to-sleep-with-the-tv phase. I really appreciate it.
- magic-chicken 8y agoMostly downtempo, trip-hop and instrumental music. See Bonobo, Tycho, Mogwai, Amon Tobin, RJD2, God is an astronaut, Quantic, Ratatat, Emancipator, Massive attack, El ten Eleven.
- brandonb2124 8y agoThis. Bonobo, Ross From Friends, Jacques Green, Ta-Ku, and Four Tet are some of my go to's. Recently was recommended Frederic Robinson as well and liking him so far.
- wingerlang 8y agoFor the people who replied already, do you listen to different music when not programming? Asking because I listen to the same kind of music regardless of activity (kpop, if that matters).
- zygotic12 8y agoHard rock albums. If I've heard any of it or notice when the music stops then I haven't been concentrating and check the code very carefully... otherwise bonzer. BTW programming not coding. I code in the shower.
- throwaway413 8y agoAmbient jazz and hip-hop instrumentals if I’m in the zone, tropical house if I’m trying to get in the zone.
