If you like electronica, this is pretty good:

Re: Programming while listening to Music?
#23Classical, electronica, and soundtracks all make excellent programming music. Grooveshark provides ample quantities of all three.
I've been on a dusbstep kick lately. Heavy bass and fast beats tend to be great for getting into a groove and coding like a maniac.

#24Do you like classical music? If so, there are plenty of shoutcast streams out there with classical with no vocals. There's also plenty of electronic music (some techno, some trance, etc.) with no vocals, that you can find to listen to.
Rock, some elctronica, and hip hop would be ideal. I'm more into indie rock, stuff like company of thieves, band of skulls, the hush sound, jack's mannequin, etc. Although I can listen to some electronica like mgmt and can also listen to some hip hop.
Can't help with the rock/hip hop, but for electronica (and its ilk) I would recommend: soma.fm (or, apparently, somafm.com, now.)
(For example, the "cliqhop/idm" shoutcast stream is what I use when I need non-distracting music in the background, for working.)
