I simply love the Chamber_concerto_Ramifications_Quartet_no_2_aventures_lux_aeterna "Album". http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9sWENPaVqR8 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JnuAaKiX1sg His "Hungarian rock" however is way too distracting. Debugging with Tom Waits. ..and if nothing else helps, I turn to Charlie Parker and Coltrane. The latter are mainly helpful since I tend focus more on the music and not on the other tasks: Take a step back and many things clear up. I recently discovered Avishai Cohen - master of all bass syncopes. fi. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E4kc0Aby2vA is very dreamy and gets me in the right mood without distracting too much. At one of my previous work-places we were listening to http://monkeyradio.org/ (Hi Koen & Arnold) all day long while hacking. Anyway, none of these are even close to The Prodigy. If you want to stick to that style: go for Sepultura's Arise: speed coding.
