Do you listen to music while you code? If so what kind or do you have a certain artist? I listen to T.Mills and Buried in Verona and Blood on the Dance Floor

This sounds pretty lame, but I usually listen to music by Two Steps From Hell (that isnt what i listen to like on a run, it is only for coding, hahaha). It is such epic music!! I get much inspiration from it as I code :P

I usually listen to rap or rock. If its rap, I listen more to Eminem, but if its rock, I listen to KBPI Rocks the Rockies 106.7 out of Denver, CO.

Everytime I see this thread pop up (even though it is in off-topic), I keep thinking it is going to be about the disgusting topic of bit-based music production in software (literally "coding music" lol). And believe me when I say that is a #$*^ lol.

I usually code while watching "low attachment" TV like football (aka soccer) games I have no dog in, clip shows that I can just occasionally look up at to clear my head, etc. Nothing with a plot, and nothing you can get lost in, because I don't pay attention to about 90% of it, but I like the noise so I am not pecking away at keys in stony silence. For some reason music can actually really distract me because once a song ends I suddenly want to go hunting for something else, and I end up losing about half of my coding time lol.
