#23Just waves sound on background.
Also, Mission Control on Soma.fm is worth checking out.

#24I enjoy a mix of things - sometimes I'll be in the mood for instrumental game or movie soundtracks (favorites include Mirror's Edge and Deus Ex: Human Revolution). Other times I'll enjoy electronic/dance music (though I'm very picky about these since I usually don't like this genre, so it's tough to find something I'll be able to work with). Sometimes I like alternative/pop-punk/rock. Usually I'll stick with a genre for a day or so and then move on to something different.
Right now I've been listening to outrun, stuff like Gunship.

#25I like Drum and Bass - because I interpret music spatially, multiple times during the day I notice the beat and the execution of code actually sync up, it's exhilarating to watch

I've also started to listen to 2 songs at once, because it's quite a different perception to enjoy the songs together and then individually, simultaneously

#28I listen to brain.fm [0] I got a promo $25 for lifetime membership. It really works for me... or at least great placebo effect for me.

#29On linux, at least: play -q -c 2 -n synth brownnoise band -n 1600 1500 tremolo .1 30 That's nice for drowning out noises when I need to. In case you can't test it out, it sounds a lot like sitting by the beach with waves rolling in. Lyric-less (or nearly) music also works well for me, I just have a playlist on spotify.
wow. I think this beats my brain.fm recommendation. Doesn't need a browser / internet to run. Thank you very much.

#30I pretty much listen to anything but lately, I have been listening to soundtracks. Today, in honor of Star Trek, I broke out Star Trek II: Wrath Of Khan. BTW: James Horner died too young.
Why not Warp 11?
