Re: Incredibox - Background music for programming.
#102I enjoy listening to live streams from clubs around the world thanks to time difference and http://www.awdio.com . On friday afternoons (in Europe) I ended the working week with electro/house from http://www.awdio.com/yumla. Now i'm in Asia myself and this doesnt work anymore :(

Love this, any more recco's?
If you're looking for more mashups, check out Girl Talk, Milkman, and Super Mash Bros. If you're looking for similar electronic music sets, here are a couple I've been digging lately: Kaskade's set from Coachella, soundboard recording. http://www.themusicninja.com/live-set-full-kaskade-coachella... Porter Robinson's BBC Essential Mix - http://soundcloud.com/edmtunestv/porter-robinson-essential-m... Knife Party's BBC…
A dubstep mix retelling Jeff Wayne's musical version of war of the worlds, sampling the original narratives by Richard Burton, Phil Lynott and David Essex - http://soundcloud.com/erwtenpeller/war-of-the-worlds
Flux Pavilion’s BBC Radio 1 Essential Mix - http://soundcloud.com/edmtunestv/flux-pavilion-essential-mix... | http://soundcloud.com/qrip/flux-pavilion-essential-mix
Somejerk's Moombahton over Miami VI live mix - http://soundcloud.com/somejerk/moombahton-over-miami-vi-some... (this might make you run/code funny... try it while doing Zumba?)

#104This (or at least the shuffle mode) reminds me of AlgoMusic, a music generator for the Amiga that, back in the day, provided me many hours of coding music: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gyUnXjVgx44 I'm going to throw Incredibox into shuffle mode for a while to see how long it takes me to switch back to Daft Punk.
/\ Just tried it out in an Amiga Emulator very cool

I've never understood how anyone can do anything productive while listening to these. They're just loud, repetitive noise to me.

I can't believe your the only one in this thread that mentioned shuffle mode. Very neat.

I absolutely love upbeat electronic music and it's awesome to know I'm not the only one on Hacker News! For over six months I've been scouring the music blogs and accumulating a playlist on Spotify. I think you'll love everything I have in here - feel free to subscribe! http://open.spotify.com/user/czstrong/playlist/2Vw6VBC3BDKGc...
Awesome! Sub'd. Here is mine: http://open.spotify.com/user/whalesalad/playlist/6nRqAHIzMFd...

#108My go-to for programming music is Groove Salad on SomaFM, a San Francisco institution going on 12 years. http://somafm.com/play/groovesalad
Hooking into Groove Salad or Deepvibes Radio http://deepvibes.co.uk/ [320 Kbps] nearly always creates an environment to get lost in the code flow.
Assign a hotkey to each of your favorite stations and jump around without losing your flow.
One way to do this is to trigger the launch of a .pls file. Save the following as deepvibes_320.pls without leading spaces

#109I can hack/design for hours without even knowing it while listening to Kap Slap. It also helps you run a 5K faster than you might have originally imagined :) Anyone who likes remixes/house/dubstep I'd encourage you check it out! The spring break mix is an hour long and it's full of goodies. http://soundcloud.com/kapslap/kap-slap-spring-break-mix p.s. I'm only evangelizing this stuff so much because honestly if I set…
This is a great mix. But it stops around the 20th minute for me. I don't know why.
It has a download link you can use to get an offline file.

Totally ditto this!! Groove Salad has saved so many mornings where I needed to work, and evening commutes where I needed to sleep. It's so relaxing, doesn't capture your mind's thinking, but makes you feel you're living in a future technological utopia.
