It ranges from good old Madness to Cradle of Filth. I listen to whatever I feel like when I’m writing code. It ranges from good old Madness to Cradle of Filth.

Usually stick with one genre until it annoys me (about a month) then flip to the next. <abbr><em>Sam’s last blog post..<a href="http://imnotpete.com/2009/02/23/followup-learning-the-singleton-pattern/">followup: learning the singleton pattern</a></abbr></em> I flip month-to-month between electronica (Lemon Jelly is on right now), heavy/drone rock (Boris, Jesu), and indie acoustic (like The Mountain Goats).

I perfer to listen to camp lo or something with a nice smooth melody though to take my mind away from the lyrics and connections of every punchline. I love ppl like fabolous or ti, but they demand too much focus that it distracts from the craftsmanship of the code and makes it hard to do anything. I find that switching from rap to something like r&b, or jpop, or modern rock works best when doing any studying or coding. Listen to your favorite japanese intros and outtro from your favorite anime or some LP/creed/godsmack/nickleback/u2. Trust me, chester bennington's smooth screams and soulful croons coupled with shinoda's soothing flow makes LP one of the best music groups to listen to when doing any computer work, period.

At home, coding on my personal projects, I usually listen to either Metal/Hard-Rock, OR Classical OR (a little) Hip-Hop. At work it's usually Metal/Hard-Rock OR House/Trance/Techno/Europop type stuff. I will very rarely listen to the latter at home as well, but not usually. Out of those, on the Metal/Hard-Rock side, I listen to everything from 70's stuff like old Alice Cooper, Deep Purple, Sabbath, etc. through 80's hair metal - Motley Crue, Dokken, Ratt, Poison, etc. - to 80's era thrash/speed metal - Megadeth, Exodus, Testament, Nuclear Assault, Overkill - to various power-metal, death-metal, melodic black-metal... everything from Kamelot to Judas Priest, Iron Maiden to Dimmu Borgir, Children of Bodom to Emperor, Opeth to Iced Earth, Nightwish to Dragonforce, Mortician to Incantation, whatever. Oh, and of course, Savatage and Trans-Siberian Orchestra! In terms of hip-hop, my tastes are pretty narrow. I dig Obie Trice, Eminem / D-12, Doctor Dre, 50 Cent, old N.W.A, Snoop Dogg, Ice Cube, and a few others. For Classical, I listen to Verdi, Wagner, Beethoven, Vivaldi, Orff, Bach, Mozart, Tchaikovsky, Handel, Strauss, Gorecki, and Saint-Saens among others. When I want Trance/Techno stuff, I just tune into one of the shoutcast stations and listen to whatever's on. I don't even really know specific artists in that genre.
