Coding to Music w/pandora: What is your play list?

7 pointsby 15y ago

I love coding to music, but my pandora channels are feeling stale. I need new musical inspiration. What do you listen to while you code?
15y agoHN ↗

I use grooveshark. usually listen to reddit's 90's playlist, or anything with warren haynes and joe bonamassa. If someone integrated a contextual playlist generator into a web-IDE and changed the music based on length of current session, degree of nesting or other complexity values, time of day based on location, etc..., I think it would be a much appreciated feature.

EDIT: Has anyone built this yet?

15y agoHN ↗

Thanks for the warren haynes suggestion, nice mellow channel

15y agoHN ↗

Here are some of my standard channels.

Clap your hands say yeah, cold war kids, deadmau5, deftones, digitalism, dj shadow, drake, dubstep, gorillaz, jack white, jay-z, johny cash, kanye west, kid cudi, korn, lil wayne, massive attack, muse, nine inch nails, norah jones (don't judge!), paper planes, phoenix, radiohead, ratatat, robert plant & alison krauss, system of a down, the offspring, white stripes, tool, trent reznor and atticus ross

Here's the click path to the station I listen to most: Genre Stations -> Alternative -> 90s Alternative/Grunge

A problem with pandora is that most stations are too uniform to hold my interest. I like the curation that a real DJ brings to the music stream, so I prefer http://www.kfjc.org/netcast/

I switched to TheSixtyOne a while ago. Put on the 'remix' mood and I'm set.

I stumbled across Florence + the machine on this service, new station, thanks.

15y agoHN ↗

Thanks, I grabbed The Raconteurs off of your blog post.

Turntable.fm - lots of new music! I have been in it all week.

+1. The "Coding Soundtrack" room seems to be the most popular room on the whole site.

I'm glad Dj Woooo forked Coding Soundtrack; now I'm more likely to get into at least one of those rooms.
