What is your Work Music?

Pandora has transformed my work music...

I put in "Can" and end up listening to Beat Happening....

Well, this is a rather interesting thread...

Here at work I cannot access the entire Web because of security retstrictions, so I rely on rotating my own CDs on my hdd. (Yeah, I know. Security is so tight I cannot listen to music, but I can logon to the forum and download my own CDs onto the machine...I didn't say it made sense!:))

At the moment, I have a rather eclectic selection. Everything from Bjork to The Who and The Sex Pistols and the SpongeBob Squarepants soundtrack (thanks to my kids). I like "Bikini Bottom" off that album.

Otherwise, depending on what I am doing and how I feel, I listen to various noise.

When I am in deep concentration mode, I like to listen to a collection of CDs from the Sacramento Choral Society. 100 voices accompanied with instrumentation--all in Latin. It has an amazing effect on my consciousness for some reason. My favorite is "introitus-in te, domine, speravi". Something about that piece drives my consciousness into a focus that drives thought and coding. I think it helps because I can simply enjoy the music without being distracted by lyrics because I do not know any Latin.

Otherwise, I listen to rock. Not heavy metal...The Police, Pink Floyd, Madness, ELO, Devo, The Clash, The Cars, etc.

I guess this kind of dates me as well.

Get me to a mix where I can pretty much forget I am working.
I meanafter the initial deselecting of every and any Jack Johnson song they attempt to put in your mix. I do not know if Jack Johnson is related to the guy who created Pandora but somehow he shws up in every Pandora mix.
 
Oh to be able to listen to music while I work. It's banned at my place.
