    My two most frequent listens are a combined playlist of the SimCity 3 and SimCity 4 soundtracks, and The Yes Album. If it’s not those, it’s almost certainly progressive rock of some kind. Nothing else comes close for productivity music for me.

    Though really, these days I find myself working with a twitch stream in the background more often than with a playlist on.

    I don’t have any particular coding music, but my music consumption is more on a yearly cycle so depends where we are within that cycle.

    For example in Feb-May I’m basically listening to the current year’s Eurovision playlist on repeat. Then from May-Jun I’ll move to my general Eurovision Bangers playlist as a way to cope and slowly come down from the high of the contest.

    But if I’m feeling particularly aggro or in need of extra motivation I’ll just tell Spotify to play me a metal mix and go from there 😅

    The Social Network Original soundtrack is another good I like to listen to while working. TRON Legacy has always been one of my favorites as well!

    Really depends on the urgency of the task I’m working on.

    Crunch time: hardstyle/hardcore for the mindnumbing tasks (early 2000s compilations), folk (like Heilung - to get in figh-or-flight mode), or percussion (Slagerij van Kampen is awesome!)

    Chill dev-days: Piano guys, jazzy/country/classical playlists, trippy stuff like Shpongle or dead can dance

      Lyrics really mess with me working, although if its in a foreign language I find it a little bit less distracting. I had a friend that had a Pandora channel for instrumental movie scores that he would use when writing novels. But after a while he realized that upon re-reading his stuff he would know what was playing when he wrote certain parts lol. The epic battle scene music from LotR would change how he wrote compared to just flying over the shire.

    Just throwing out another one since I remembered it. When I really have to crunch mode, I usually stick on the Vicious Delicious album from Infected Mushroom and just block out the world while its going.

    Got into 65daysofstatic thanks to the No Man’s Sky soundtrack, so mostly their albums on repeat. Also been liking maybeshewill. I get distracted by stuff with lyrics so I tend to stick to instrumental stuff.

    I tend to get stuck just flipping through Youtube if I spend too long choosing anything, so it’s usually lofi or a chiller album I’m aware of. My most productive time ever was when I was listening to Getz/Gilberto basically on repeat for a month. Still one of my favourite albums.
