We thought the community could use some music-driven development (MDD).

What are you listening to? :)

I'll start - I'm currently listing to a lot of Chiptunes. Some good playlists to get you started:

Guidelines

  • If possible, link to the album, playlist or track on Soundcloud, Spotify, Google Music or elsewhere.
  • If a legit/legal link to it isn't available, just the album or track name should be solid. You can link to artists or somewhere your suggestion can be bought if you want. We don't mind.
  • Be awesome to one another. This thread is all about the music :)

I usually add the latest albums from Pitchfork & Any Decent Music? to a Spotify playlist named month/year. After a few listens of each album I decided if I like it and will keep listening to it for the rest of the month, or delete it. I always end up with a good playlist by the end of the month :)

Here is what I'm listening to for January 2014...

I've met a new style (for me new) which is called Deep House as @MethodGrab already posted.

Here is a long playlist with much of Deep House, but also some 'relax' mixes. Enough music for 25 days 24/7 :P

Wow. This is still going 👍

Currently listening to a lot of trap music. It's a bit of a switch up from the dubstep/electronic stuff I've been listening to while coding for the last year, but I like it. Choice artists:

  • PartyNextDoor
  • Bryson Tiller
  • The Weeknd
  • Jeremih
  • Ty Dolla Sign
  • Tinashe
  • Fetty Wap

When I do listen to electronic music, I'm liking Flume, Odesza, Tep No and Vanic 🎹

Wow. This is still going 👍

And I hope it keeps going for a while. This thread is a living book about programmers music listening habits. This was a great idea!

Oh yes, right now I a taking some Alien Shooter 2 Reloaded game soundtrack and will go for some Armin Van Buuren next. Trance helps in keeping you focused.

Foo Fighters - There Is Nothing Left To Lose

When I was in my teens standing in a video rental store, I heard a great riff come on that really really resonated with me. I asked the older kids behind the desk what music it was (while someone yelled “the bad kind” in the background hah) and they handed me their Foo Fighters CD. That was the first I had ever heard of the band and the song was Aurora. Flash forward 22 years and it both remains a favorite song…and is what we named one of our teams in Chrome. Only the folks on this thread now know that connection :)
