I'm not familiar with any of these musicians, so I'm going to have to check them out. Thanks!

I was lucky enough to score a second-hand set of Deutche Grammophon's Complete Beethoven Edition at an estate sale, and I like to crank up the piano sonatas when coding (and save the symphonies for consensual sex and ultraviolence). When I'm not rocking out to the Ludwig van, I've got some other stuff I like to play while coding:

* Thank You Scientist: Maps of Non-Existent Places and Terraformer

* Starfarer: Voyagers

* Marcus Miller: Renaissance

* Betamaxx: Plug And Play

* Hiromi Uehara with Trio Project: Voice

* Hiromi Uehara: Spectrum

* Liquid Tension Experiment

* Joe Satriani: Surfing with the Alien, The Extremist, Crystal Planet, Black Swans and Wormhole Wizards, Unstoppable Momemtum

* Galneryus: The Flag of Punishment, Advance to the Fall, and Beyond the End of Despair

* Therion: Vovin, Deggial, Secret of the Runes, Lemuria, Sirius B, Gothic Kabbalah

* Judas Priest: Sad Wings of Destiny, Sin After Sin, Stained Class

I've been wanting to build something like this since the last time I seen this posted here.

This is cool, but what makes it "music for programming?" I'd say music for programming is whatever your favorite music is. Everyone has different tastes.

Speaking personally, I find somewhat ambient, low key, or atmospheric music without words to be most helpful when I program, which is not necessarily my favorite kind of music in general. This is just a huge library of those kinds of songs. I was a big fan and user of it when I first discovered it in 2013/2014.

"music for programming" with me is Pink Floyd. Anyone with me?

High BPM music has a huge effect on me.

I have seen myself iterating a lot more during a session where I would listen to trance music instead of 2000s punk rock.

Is it the smaller amount of lyrics? I don't know, but I'm convinced I have observed a higher productivity when listening to high bpm music in the past 5 years.

I’m a huge fan of the artist NCS. (Noise cancelling silence). I haven’t listened to a song while working in several years, but do wear a pair of the latest Sony cans. I used to listen to similar content, soundtracks, etc, but found silence is where it’s at for me.
