    I'm curious: while working at the keyboard, do you listen to something? White noise, music, nature sounds? Dish.

      Good selection. I'm just now getting into prog metal, so I've got some catching up to do with Dream Theater. Although, being a keyboard player, watching Jordan Ruddess play makes me want to give it all up. Haven't listened to Morse since he quit Spock's Beard, and haven't hardly any of their latest either. A drummer friend of mine has been turning me onto some great new prog from The Pineapple Thief, Frost, and Lalu. There must be thousands of prog bands I've never heard of, much less listened to.

      If you think 'goto' is evil, try writing an Assembly program without JMP.

        I quite often leave this youtube stream up of a water hole in namibia. Kind of kewl. And the wind is a nice background noise. Namibia: Live stream in the Namib Desert - YouTube[^]

          I like lyrics when I'm not coding. Aesop Rock's poetry (it almost can't be called rap but def hip hop) is mind bending, and I love him for it. Otherwise while I'm coding I need quiet or something instrumental. Beats I can handle, but usually I'll listen to Tobacco/Black Moth Super Rainbow, or El-P and his dad Harry Keys, or otherwise something abstract like that.

                I do love jazz. We used to play it in our coffee shop and back in the day I had a favorite local jazz band I'd go listen to at the Pig & Whistle in Ft. Worth.

                  It's taken decades to acquire my music library. It has just about everything except the twangy country & western and rap.

                    Does your shuffle function stay within a genre? If I allow a player to *truly* shuffle across my entire library, I might get Sinatra followed by some techno...that just...doesn't work.

                    Nope. Right now I'm listening to Celtic Woman but I have no idea what's next. Song ended and it jumped to the Eagles Sad Cafe. Yesterday it went from the Carpenters to Jethro Tull at one point.

                      Well now that the #$%#^%^ dogs have shut up (they aren't my dogs, but somehow I have to walk and feed them) I finally put on my QC15s and am listening to the beach boys. Came across some other folders full of music from bad times, so that got parked elsewhere. If I really get into a deep spot, then it's be a soundtrack - Hunt for Red October is excellent.

Corporate IT has turned on things for the corporate firewall that causes 99.9% of the worlds websites to fail to load. CP's servers seem to have their #$%%^ together. I suspect this is why I cannot obtain a network license key to build some code my boss needs....

                              During work, I prefer melodic electronic music with no substantial lyrics.

                                  Usually prefer silence but, paradoxically, when I need a music break, it's often something like Jesus and Mary Chain or Pixies or Rammstein or something equally raucous.

                                    A lot, from electronic dance music to black and death metal to classical to soundtracks. I was just listening to some random electro swing, but I've switched it for Vexed, a metalcore band :D

                                          I enjoy soundtracks too, but I usually listen to a re-mixed version like what I find on Ambient Worlds yt channel. I especially enjoy the ones with seaside sounds added - Pirates of the Caribbean and HP Shell Cottage. I'll look for the Red October - there might be some ocean noises in that ...
