Animan Posted February 1, 2012 Share Posted February 1, 2012 For me, it's Anime and video game soundtracks, Eurobeat, Devo, Weird Al, and some random rock albums. Do any of you listen to music while programming, and what songs do you listen to? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Random Terrain Posted February 1, 2012 Share Posted February 1, 2012 If using a BASIC style language counts as programming, I listen to nothing. I can't have any distractions. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rockfistus Posted February 1, 2012 Share Posted February 1, 2012 I listen to a lot of 90's and 80's crap. Soundgarden, Garbage, Porno for Pyros, The Doves, Oasis, Veruca Salt..etc 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emehr Posted February 2, 2012 Share Posted February 2, 2012 (edited) I don't program as much as I used to but when I did my music rotation consisted of Devo, James Brown, Smashing Pumpkins, Porno For Pyros, Rage Against the Machine, Pink Floyd, and a few others I can't remember.

Mr SQL Posted February 3, 2012 Share Posted February 3, 2012 I listen to SID's; I have several favourite lists comprised of the ones that get just the right alpha waves going I like Galager, Hubbard, Jeron Tel and many of the other gread composers. Draxish... fantastic, who wrote that? I'd really like to pick up a SID player with a real 6581 if anyone knows of one; the chip has analouge filters that can't be emulated. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Omega-TI Posted October 28, 2014 Share Posted October 28, 2014 Stuff like this while coding... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WEQnzs8wl6E ... and stuff like this while debugging ... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I5ctCOz5E9k Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tep392 Posted October 28, 2014 Share Posted October 28, 2014 Stuff like this while coding... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WEQnzs8wl6E I have a soft spot in my heart for this album. It was the first metal album I ever bought. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thomas Jentzsch Posted October 28, 2014 Share Posted October 28, 2014 I am listening to my personal Pandora channel of non-distracting music. Usually some toned down music there (Tracy Chapman, Dire Straits/Mark Knopfler, Aimee Mann...). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rasch_C Posted November 20, 2014 Share Posted November 20, 2014 I get in the zone with a techno soundtrack - Chemical Brothers, Daft Punk, Praga Kahn, Prodigy, Orbital, Aphex Twin, etc. And then switch it up sometimes to some Celtic, or whatever else I stumble upon the internet while testing code at 3am - think The Brodingnagian Bards lol 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rex Dart Posted November 21, 2014 Share Posted November 21, 2014 Has to be something that doesn't demand attention. Repetive techno/trance/chillout, Tangerine Dream, etc. Lyrics are a no-go for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+nanochess Posted November 21, 2014 Share Posted November 21, 2014 Enya, some instrumentals mostly, sometimes Muse and/or the Cranberries. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZippyRedPlumber Posted November 21, 2014 Share Posted November 21, 2014 Let's get the controversial statement out of the way; I don't know how to use any basic... But while making mockups for homebrew ideas, I often listen to bands I like, like Devo, Rush, Styx, Aerosmith, Genesis, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phillip_roberts Posted December 17, 2014 Share Posted December 17, 2014 It depends on the mood I am in & where I am at in production. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roland p Posted June 7, 2015 Share Posted June 7, 2015 (edited) new favorite of mine: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hLcNhnPF1hc (youtube compression destroys the soundtrack though...)

Zarek Posted June 13, 2015 Share Posted June 13, 2015 Changes all the time for myself, but at the moment I'm listening to hip-hop of all things I guess usually I switch between Nirvana and Beach House. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kaufenpreis Posted June 24, 2015 Share Posted June 24, 2015 This depends on a task I need to perform as well as from my working environment.If you work in the office with more than 2 people I recommend that you to get some good headphones to minimize to block out background noise from your colleagues.

AtariTexas Posted June 24, 2015 Share Posted June 24, 2015 From Slayer and System to a Down all the way down to some leisurely Chicago and other 70's bands..................just depends on the mood I'm in Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
