Curious as to know what music Picsters listen to while coding (if any)?
Current play list (in no particular order):
Bread: Anthology of.
Roger Waters: Pros and cons of hitchhiking, Radio Kaos, Amused to death.
Sisters of Mercy: A slight case of overbombing.
Loreena McKennith: the book of secrets.
The Big Blue soundtrack.
Janis Joplin: Greatest Hits.
Pink Floyd: The Wall, Wish you were here (and more).
Rocky Horror Picture Show soundtrack (hehe, always slip that one in when
I feel giddy with all the coding).
JJ Cale: Special edition (and more).
I would have a link to FINDU here in my signature line, but due to the

That's why I ended up with synergy.
It dosen't draw my attention. Algorithmically generated, I think.

These are not always my favorite music but I do
believe some types (tempos?) of music seem to wind
up the old brain cells and achieve higher
productivity, in a similar way to caffeine maybe.

I can relate to that! Try The Big Blue and Vangelis (not his well known
works like Chariots of Fire though, played to death). And try Kitaro, if
you can still find it. Also there was a guy that turned Handel's work
into electronic sounds. Forgot the name, Water- something. Looking for
it as it would be great background to synchronise automation!

He was called Walter Carlos, now she's called Wendy Carlos.
His Bach was better in my estimation. The Well Tempered Synthesiser
gets the logic and maths juices flowing. It has of course got to be combine
with coffee made from freshly ground beans to achieve maximum
caffeine transfer.

RIGHT NOW you are in front of your master. He's looking at you.
He's always observing ...

Nice music, thanks for remembering that to remember that!

Wow! :oD

It's proved classical music get people smarter (remember "Get smart!"? :oD), progressive rock should do the same. It makes your brain cells work hard hehehe :o)
When you say "The Big Blue " sound, do you mean the music maded by Eric Serra
for the french movie "The Big Blue" (or, "Deep Blue", I dont remember well).
(director: Luc Besson).I like this film and the music is good, too.
When I programm, I hear radio, ... everything that the disc-jockey plays! :)
Sometimes I run the Winamp and play Enya, Café Quijano, Mecano, Bruce
Springsteen, Eros Ramazzotti (my girlfriend is a big fan) and a lot more...
Yes, I have "The wall" and "Wish you were here", and like it.

My wife likes Eros, I am not a big fan. And as a side note, I got this
week a CD from my friends in Los Cerillos called Concierto Latino made
by your Radio Concierto. Fun music.
Will be visiting your country again early next year. Going to stay on
the farm in Los Cerillos and Colonia.

I'm almost strictly a contempory jazz person, with some R&B mixed in. I have
most of my music MP3 encoded, playing on random jukebox mode 24/7. I just
unmute the stereo when I want some music:
Warren Hill
Candy Dulfer
David Sanborn
Nelson Rangell
Gerald Albright
The Braxton Brothers
Wayman Tisdale
Earth Wind and Fire
Lauryn Hill
Vanessa Williams
Steve Cole
and others. About 75 albums worth encoded, and another 10-15 I need to get
around to.
One of my next PIC projects is to generate a IR controllable console and
stabilizing my vehicle power supply so that I can transfer the setup to the
cars.

I may try to switch to jazz. I haven't been able to get my PIC program working
-- maybe because I listen to Twisted Sister.
Im not a programer bat when i do something else on my lovely comp i
listen to:
Slipknot
Korn
Nofx
Millencolin
Matrix soundtrack
and a lot more

For me (I work as a DJ on weekends), the music plays a big role. As I am
also easily distracted if there is any background noise, that's why I
always keep something playing while I am coding (to muffle the noise
out). I prefer music, that does not have any (or have only few) lyrics,
because I have often found myself listening to the lyrics while I should
have been coding.
Examples:
Jean Michel Jarre (The Composer of the 20th century)
Kraftwerk (Legendary)
Laserdance (and other spacesynth)
Mike Oldfield (the instrumental ones)
Rob Zombie (dig thought the ditches and burn though the witches...)
Rammstein (new album is great)
Carcass, Rotten Sound and others like that...
melodic trance in general (I cannot name any favorite)
classical (Bach mostly)
These I listen while in more-listening-not-so-much-coding -mode:
Manic Street Preachers,3 Doors Down
The Manhattan Transfer
Run DMC
Manowar,Iron Maider,Helloween
The Beatles
Metallica (older, before the black album)
Hardcore Superstars
italo-disco from the 80's
blues, many different artists
Lullacry,Nightwish,Stratovarius,Sonata Arctica,Sentenced +other Finnish
melodic metal
and also bands that sing in finnish, but I don't list them here :)

Or, after my run-in yesterday with middle management not telling me
about some documentation that would have made life oh so simple,
"Obscured By Clods"
Having been involved in cpu's for the past 25 years (hardware and software)
I have gone from rock to classical and now I am listening to New Age (Eric
Tingstad, Secret Garden, Hillary Stagg to name a few). I have the Dish
Network satellite receiver and the programming includes a large number of
audio (music) only channels, with no talking or commercials. I record 6
hours worth on a vcr tape then go through the tape listening for songs I
like. When I find one, I check it against the spread sheet of songs
recorded so far. If not present then I record it to my computer. Once I
have enough for a CD I burn a CD. So far I have 39 such CD's that average
less than 2 minutes of unused space on the CD.
I have started moving my old vinyl records to CD. The Larry Fast Synergy
albums remain some of my favorite - there were 4 in all as I recall - one
was of clear vinyl. Pretty cool to look through.

OOh.. I've only ever see the one I have.
Bought it in vinyl in the 70's, and again recently in CD.
Legacy, Slaughter on 10th ave, Synergy, Relay breakdown, and Warriors.
I would have a link to FINDU here in my signature line, but due to the
inability of sysadmins at TELOCITY to differentiate a signature line from
the text of an email, I am forbidden to have it.
I'm afraid I can't listen to anything I really really like when programming.
My tastes are pretty eclectic and I'll hop around the FM from classical
(not opera not opera) to student indie to jock rock to classic hits to talk
back. If I'm working on anything such as nested loops or maths where
you need to think a couple of steps ahead then it has to be silence or
I'll be on the same routine all day. When the programming stops and
it's a-solderin' time, then Yes, Genesis (with Peter Gabriel), Return To
Forever, Deep Purple, in fact just about anything regarded as dinosaur
rock. I thought the 90's were pretty dismal, with a few exceptions (Alice
In Chains, Smashing Pumpkins, Veruca Salt). Music is so much more
a product these days many very samey bands just don't appeal to me
