Looking for what others find good for their productivity or code writing. What kind of music do you listen to that gets you in the zone?
For me, it can be anything from classical to metal, lofi to an entire playlist of hans zimmer.

I start off with Classical//Opera. Then the project will change and more than likely the playlist, probably some DOOM,R.A.G.U., E-40, Grunge, CNN or the like.
Usually some extreme metal or trap style EDM I haven't heard before, then I make a note in the hourly break if it was really good or not.
Usually some kind of electronic music at 160+ bpm(footwork, DnB), but could trend into more instrumental metal as well. I'll sometimes go slower with the electronic as well.
DnB: Om Unit, Sam Binga, Fracture, Neptune, Rockwell, dBridge, Icicle, Doc Scott
160/Footwork: Ducky, Machinedrum, DJ Paypal/Teklife, Slick Shoota
Electronic: Burial, Jacques Green, Pearson Sound, Ben UFO, Boards Of Canada, Tycho, DJ Shadow, Chrome Sparks, Caribou, Ital Tek
Metal: Astronoid, Animals As Leaders
Can really vary by mood and day. Spotify does a pretty impressive job of queuing up music it thinks I'll like. Soundcloud is also a great source for mixes.

Personally mostly progressive and house music.
I like what can be called "brain food" music. It puts me in a mood where I am 100% into my work and cannot be distracted.

House and ambient music are my favorites. 😏
Check out this house mix: youtube.com/watch?v=ZSk8k6basWw

While I'm coding, I listen to these playlists too:

This is pretty good: CodingRadio
I love listening to Drum n' Bass whilst I'm coding, I love listening to it when I'm at the gym too, really helps me zone in.
Gym and Code are two separate playlists, coding one with less distracting vocals in there and the gym one with uplifting stuff 👌
And for super laser focus time I use brain.fm which uses science!
I don't distinguish between the music i listen to when coding or any other time but i try to avoid music with to much singing because that music tends to distract me. So my favorite music genre is Drum&Bass and fortunately there are many tracks with no or few vocals.
Playlists i prefer:
Run 'N' Bass 170-175 BPM
Drum & Bass Top Tracks
Technimatic's Box of Tricks
Hardstyle/Hardcore nobody :( ?
Was coding to the three hours of a Defqon 1 retrospective, the other day.
Human Music. I LIKE IT
