Something no one brought up in the comments: White/ Brown noise.
Cancels environment and puts you in a zone.

For me (it differs on the task):

  • White/ brown noise
  • Rain soundscapes (not much rain here, I have to make do)
  • Video game music
  • Tron Legacy OST
  • Dance-to music (Hip-hop, 80's, latin, etc.) - I have a standing desk and it helps to be active.
  • Symphonic Death Metal (usually for the time sensitive tasks. Incl. Headbanging).
