What do you listen to as you work?

[Vladi03]

I'm wondering what you guys/girls listen to as you CAD or code. So I guess I'll start.

Hip-Hop - Drake, Tyler, The Creator, Childish Gambino, Chance The Rapper, Earl Sweatshirt, Frank Ocean

Alternative - The Front Bottoms(on all the time this past build), Modern Baseball, Best Coast, Death Cab For Cutie, Miniature Tigers, Matt & Kim

I'm interested to see what you guys listen to and want to hear some good music!

I don't like music; I listen to nothing as I work.

How is this a thing? Music is what gets me into those long CADing and coding sessions.

Yeah, I get that a lot...
I seriously just don't enjoy any music. I get through coding sessions by... coding.

Music in our shop is usually provided by whatever student wants to connect their phone to the amp. I've heard everything in our shop from Kanye to Flogging Molly. Always... interesting,

Yeah same here, I guess it was just different for me because I was usually that student that hogged the AUX. In turn, that influenced the other members music taste, and we ended listening to the same artist the entire build.

Basically this, and whatever else is on the radio from the top hits.

In our shop though we don't listen to music, but at home I pretty much always have my headphones on when I'm working at my computer.

We've got a team Pandora account that's usually playing in the lab. Favorites include '80s Pop, Journey, Beach Boys, Frank Sinatra, High School Musical (only after 9:30)...

My team does that as well, but in the lair of programming we listen to 60s-80s rock. (i.e, Queen, CCR, AC/DC, Jethro Tull.....)

[carpedav000]

I listen to almost everything, so heres a small selection of what I listen to:

Rock: Fall Out Boy, Black Veil Brides, Styx

Hip Hop/Rap: Macklemore, 'Lil Jon, Eminem

Dubstep: Prostecutioner, Winside, Spag Heddy

[Akash Rastogi]

Exclusively Jay Z, Kanye, Drake, J Cole, and Fetty Wap radio on Spotify or Pandora. All good rap and hip hop gets you pumped for work.

[MikLast]

while i like hard rock (seether, 3 days grace, Sevendust, etc.) we also just let anyone really choose a song, and it can go anywhere. (and usually results nyan cat or pirates.)

Our Electrical team likes to play polka... I don't like it.
I just put in filler noise, like rain.

Back on 2220, CAD time was counted in musicals. On a long saturday, I might get through 7 Les Miserables of work. On a regular night I could get through one or two Wickeds.

The mechanical (manipulator) guys were very classic rock, the electronics guys loved their electronic music, drive train liked alt and indie rock, and media listened to either very funky indie/underground stuff or total bubblegum pop.
