Stemming from late night college days my old standby used to be the TRON Legacy soundtrack, but recently stumbled onto this great Donkey Kong Country 2 Arrangement
The Social Network Original soundtrack is another good I like to listen to while working. TRON Legacy has always been one of my favorites as well!
Oh I’ll have to try out the Social Network soundtrack, thanks for the reccomendation!
The “Deep Focus” or “Coding Mode” playlists on Spotify.
Nice, I’ve used the Deep Focus one before, I’ll need to checkout Coding Mode
Just throwing out another one since I remembered it. When I really have to crunch mode, I usually stick on the Vicious Delicious album from Infected Mushroom and just block out the world while its going.
I tend to get stuck just flipping through Youtube if I spend too long choosing anything, so it’s usually lofi or a chiller album I’m aware of. My most productive time ever was when I was listening to Getz/Gilberto basically on repeat for a month. Still one of my favourite albums.
Mostly Metal, but instrumental music without lyrics when I really have to focus.
Lyrics really mess with me working, although if its in a foreign language I find it a little bit less distracting. I had a friend that had a Pandora channel for instrumental movie scores that he would use when writing novels. But after a while he realized that upon re-reading his stuff he would know what was playing when he wrote certain parts lol. The epic battle scene music from LotR would change how he wrote compared to just flying over the shire.
