Anyway, I'm just listening to The Prodigy's "Invaders Must Die" which
reminded me of many a time staying up all night with mates playing on
Xbox/Playstation listening to electronic IDM/DANCE/ETC music - which
is conducive to shooting people, hijacking cars, racing anti-gravity
craft, beating people up, etc. But I find it a bit too distracting
while trying to program.

Anyone have any recommendations for music good for getting them into
the frame of mind for programming?
A friend of mine told me a while back that there had actually been some research done saying that ambient electronic music had some kind of beneficial effect on tasks involving concentration. It seems to work for me, but I guess if you really hated that kind of music it would have the wrong effect. ;)
