Music for Programming, 2012 Edition

Top music for programming this year:

None at all. I’m giving that a try, seeing where it goes. I know that my worst year of programming was fueled by tons of music.
“Tesla’s Lab”, part of the AmbiScience Brain Power app (also on Android). This is related to #1 above, because it’s really a sort of audio texture, not really music.
Kyrie by Mr. Mister. This was just for one project where I had a client who I knew LOVED this song and I needed to get into her brain while I worked. I listened to it for about a week straight, and it did the trick.

As you can tell, these aren’t my normal music listening habits. But I’m finding that I have to listen to music more intentionally lately, because I like the sound of nothing just as much.

Want to listen to, but haven’t yet:
