I've scientifically confirmed that The Talking Heads made the best hacking music known to man.

Aside from that, I listen to a lot of Of Montreal, other indie pop, some electronic and movie soundtracks (There Will Be Blood and The Fountain OSTs are both great).

Ditto Talking Heads. Also Depeche Mode and Tears for Fears.

Is there a better song for working on a startup than "Everybody Wants To Rule The World"?
