> Hi, I was wondering whether listening to music while working increases your productivity.

It definitely depends who you ask. I tend to listen to a mix of punk (classic, hardcore, skatecore, crust, grindcore) and metal (crossover, thrash), trip-hop, and jazz.

I enjoy fast-paced music while programming, as well as more relaxing low-tempo instrumental music.

Nice! Any specific artists or playlists you can refer me to?

Ridiculously heavy and fast-paced stuff: Municipal Waste, Nasum, Magrudergrind, Wormrot, Agoraphobic Nosebleed, Pig Destroyer.

Pretty energetic and melodic: The Bouncing Souls, 88 Fingers Louie, Propagandhi, Strung Out, Pennywise.

And, finally, plenty of electronic/beats/trip-hop:
