Re:Music for Programming by __david__ on Tuesday November 01, 2016 @12:54PM (#12847684)
My go-to programming music is psytrance/goa [1]. It's high energy in the bass drum/bass line category, but the other melodies are often ethereal or even ambient sounding. It's repetitive enough to slot into the background quite easily for me. I found it by accident one night back when radio was still a thing and it took me 10 years to even turn the sound that I was hearing into a genre name. I find it to be as effective as caffeine, which is very interesting to me.
