Favourite music while programming
-
Hey People, I have to say I'm quite suprising by the sheer force in numbers of you MFC programmers who like rock music. Any hip-hoppers in the lounge today? Our offices favorites: Wu-Tang, Dr.Dre, Snoop, Eminem, Hitman etc.... Regards, Paul Barrass
I have LL Cool J, 3 Beastie Albums, and Run DMC ripped on my hard drive right now! Licensed to Ill all the way!!! (it's not DMX, but it works for this 30+ year old) Brigham W. Thorp Software Engineer Timex Corporation

What do you guys listen to while programming? Just listening to Rage Against the Machine. Seems kinda apt these days :) cheers, Chris Maunder
I tend to put something in and let it run for days on end. For the past 2 weeks I have been listening to Korn:Issues on repeat, before that Marilyn Manson for a few days, and prior to that, get this, The Beatles (White album and Blue Hits album) for about a month.

*grin* at risk of incriminating myself I will answer *before* finding out if anyone else shares my tastes. I have all my CD's on MP3 ( 50 odd MP3 CD's ) and I listen to music like Accept, Kix, Motley Crue, Faster Pussycat, Def Leppard, U.D.O., Iron Maiden, Megadeth, etc. For variety, I've lately been downloading 12" remixes of 80's pop songs like Prince, U2, and one hit wonders like 'You spin me like a record' and 'I wanna be a cowboy'. Hey, I'm 32 years old in a few months, give me a break !!:) Christian The content of this post is not necessarily the opinion of my yadda yadda yadda. To understand recursion, we must first understand recursion.
Not THAT OLD MAN! 30s is fun! am yet to be! Still 30s-2! :) And about the Master of Puppets, I still got the same cassette, the old
THUMSON ORIGINAL!:rolleyes: .The Megadeth, Ya! Man! They are my favs as well! but against James, Dave is :confused: .
Metallica, best band I've ever known! Strong, Stable and all the songs are really :cool: .
Cheers, Masoud

Hey... this question has gathered quite some response.. My current fav is the Million Dollar Hotel Soundtrack. For night-hacks I prefer silent stuff. kinda dd, but if coding doesn't keep me awake, music won't ;-) Ry Cooder is great for a long&lonely night. Trois Coleurs soundtracks. Well... lot's of soundtracks, that is. some harder stuff to speed me up(doesn't work always) : Hole, Subway to Sally (german medieval hardcodepunkfolkrock), What puzzles me is our society's obsession with music.Music for breakfast, Music on the way to work. Music in thecubicle (Earphones, that is). Way Home. Some Music to relax. Muzak in the shopping mall. No tv/radio advertising without music. Music to relax at the evening. And perhaps... some music (auto-fading after half-an-hour) to go to sleep. Not everything for everybody - but sure, lots for most. Is it we are afraid to hear our hartbeat? or cover the permanent background noise of our technocratic society? Is it a CIA plot? Or is music just cool? Peter

Have you ever heard the song "Rhythm of Life?" "...The Rhythm of Life is a powerful beat... rhythm on the inside, rhythm on the feet, rhythm on the outside, rhythm on the street, and the Rhythm of Life is a powerful beat!" (At least, I think those are the words; bear with me). Music, music, music; this world would sure suck without it :)

From the plethora of replies to this message :) I'll assume that most CP readers (like me) like to program in utter silence. The only noise around me is from two table fans (not aimed at me) I use to drown out ambient random noise. /ravi "There is always one more bug..." http://www.ravib.com ravib@ravib.com

I'm such a loser... I didn't realize there were replies to the original message. Apologies... /ravi

AC/DC AC/DC AC/DC AC/DC AC/DC AC/DC Here are some songs and the situations they fit: Shot Down In Flames - just found out my recent "minor" interface change to an old base class affected a whole bunch of other classes that I had forgotten about Highway To Hell - just spent 4 hours trying to fix a bug only to find out it was bug in the compiler Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap - just found out that someone else is making 50% more than me for the same job Night Prowler - just realized it is 3:00am and my one goal for the day turned up four other things that need attention for it can be realized And finally... Let There Be Rock (live version from "If You Want Blood") - Just turn it up to 11 and forget about all the other BS that ruined my day

Woo! Beastie Boys! (Hey Ladies! :)). Yep - I'm definitely with you on most of those, plus: - Nokturnal - Grinspoon - The Whitlams - Spiderbait - Stellar one-eleven (mmm - that voice!) (all Oz bands - worth checking out!) And - Chilli Peppers (older stuff) - Offspring - Limp Bizkit - Dragon Ash (excellent Japanese hip-hop) and when I'm feeling nostalgic, Nirvana and RadioHead cheers, Chris Maunder
(hm, what all can find lounge search; so quite late:) nostalgic - it means: led zeppelin, metallica, nirvana (do you know first album?), ... for me and many others you can't know (do you?): buty, collegium musicum, stromboli, ... t!
