I do have my favorite selection for coding. But lately nothing better than Progressive Deep House or Melodic Techno.
For truly special moments I need Michael McCann work on Deus Ex: Human Revolution. Total masterpiece.
If I have to solve really hard problems, I need no sounds. Maybe even noise cancellation with absolutely nothing but my "voice" in my mind.
- ofou 5y agoto me, it's easier to concentrate with music, but with no lyrics. I'll check your references, not in my radar yet.
- sebastianconcpt 5y agoOh great point! I forgot to mention that. Is very important for coding that music should not have lyrics. Interestingly, I found it can be fine to have some lyrics if I'm coding things that are easy to code. I guess cognitive load is way higher when you're trying to design in your mind how to code a solution and some dude/girl is melodically whining about her little drama hahaha. Just figured too that, for example, no lyrics but agitated guitars also won't go well. What I need is the opposite of adrenaline, some kind of serenity where the mind can expand on its own. So I'm kind of surprised that I can do that with some melodic techno. Interesting.
