I have a coding music playlist that I've been improving over the last few years, it's nearly 70 hours of upbeat electronica & IDM with no almost no vocals. I try to only keep music that keeps me in the zone and delete any track that distracts me. The playlist is now on Spotify, but it had over 100 subscribers on Rdio before they closed down.

There was also a thread last week that asked about music: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=11493678

Months ago, I realized that basically most of what Sirius XM was playing, was available as a podcast, so I canceled satellite radio and just subscribed to all the dj's I could find / listen to. And I really only listen to EDM.

Usually stuff without lyrics, or lyrics I can't really understand, so the songs remain in the background. Anything to drawn out the open office setting when I need to concentrate, and also to pump me up. Seems like repetitiveness can help reduce distraction. Most likely some classical, and then some aggressive rock/punk/metal.
