In the lab, our team usually listens to our build playlist on Spotify: https://play.spotify.com/user/rebelr...RlT70nXScQRs0R

That is, we listen until our mentors get sick of it, and plug in their own music, which is usually classical. (which can be a welcome change after 4 weeks of the Spotify monstrosity)

At work... I've got a bit of an eclectic mix. I'll just leave it at that. (Also used in the car on occasion.) Background noise comes from all the air tools!

In the robot shop, it's whoever plugs into the sound system. Unless the mentors start making comments about it not being music...

We dont have speakers, so our sound system usually involves placing a phone in the FTC sizing cube (works great btw)

something I thought I should add: if you need to be focused, video game music (like Halo- something with a campaign mode) can help you do so

Bruh we must be related cause you listen to all the same rap artist as myself. But the difference is when I go to play my music my team say "Turn that craps off," considering everyone was raised on different music. But it's all good. I still play it anyways so I make them deal with it 😂. Keep it trill b.

Just a few in my daily playlist (please note - I have no idea if there's anything unacceptable for various audiences in these selections please vet them).

Nightwish "Imaginaerum"
Birthday Massacre "Pins and Needles" + "Walking With Strangers"
Sound track to: "Sucker Punch"
Lindsey Stirling "Shatter Me"
A bunch of tracks from VNV Nation
Blind Guardian "Wheel of Time"
Imagine Dragons "Night Visions"
A bunch of tracks from Apoptygma Berzerk
...

I used to listen to: Mozart, Nine Inch Nails and then Sesame St. "C is for Cookie". That mix definitely got some looks at the transitions. ;)

Yup! Good to know man. We hip-hop lovers got to stick together, I have a feeling we are a minority in the robotics community! So yes, keep it trill b.

I usually listen to Spotify Rock and Simon Garfunkle radio although I often listen to Techno to get started

I would bring my portable speaker and hook my mp3 up and I have 1200 songs consisting of everything from Hank Williams Sr. To Brad Paisley, Blake Shelton, Rascal Flatts to Fall Out Boy. I have music from every decade since the 1940s

Our Team listened to Monstercat Album Mixes through the whole season albums 1 through 21.

Build team listens to whatever is on the phone of a student who plugs it into the speaker. The business team has their own Pandora thing.

Drive team also listens to music during driving practice and we enjoy classical music as well as video game soundtracks. Strangely, no one else on the team enjoys this very much and I can't figure out why...

At home, I generally don't play music if I actually need to concentrate. When I do play something, I generally don't really care what it is, and most of the type it's just anything repetitive. (I used to leave flash games running for their music.)

I have created a playlist with music from robot reveal videos, which at one point I played through a lot. My sister got very annoyed of hearing Roy G Biv...

dude, Roy G. Biv was like, the best song on any of the reveal videos. how did they even find something that was that perfect to their theme?

I don't know, 1986 and 118 also generally have good tunes in their videos.

Alas, nothing.

I love music, but I love it too much. Rock, Jazz, Classical, Folk & World Music are my key weaknesses. But when I listen to music, I really listen. I don't need background noise. When I work, I need to think, and the two don't mix well.

If I did mindless work, I could pull this off. But I really avoid mindless work.

Depending on the day, when I program I listen to Daft Punk, Adhesive Wombat, Swedish House Mafia, Glitch Mob, Justice, Coldplay, and Hans Zimmer.

During drive practices before IRI the drivers listened to a playlist of reveal video songs and eventually listened to the Holiday remix 179 used this year on repeat :D. Personally I listen to Up and Away on repeat :D
