Jazz, especially hard bop, makes for great coding music. When played well, it fades into the background and become a soundtrack of sorts yet it is still technically interesting enough that when I need to take a break from coding, I can focus on the jazz and it'll still keep my brain going. Chillwave is also amazing.

I tend to find sung lyrics distracting in music, although chants and foreign languages aren't as much of a hindrance.
