Ask HN: What do you listen to while hacking?
3 comments
I always wear my earphones. Nothing special there, just the ones i got when i bought my iPhone.
I listen to this playlist a lot. http://grooveshark.com/#!/playlist/Few+Rock+Songs/81912164
Spotify is not in India and i like Grooveshark a lot. Also, on my mac, i use Shinygroove desktop app for Grooveshark which makes it easier for me to use the Media keys. http://ktkaushik.com/post/45445419529/shinygroove-a-lovely-m...

I don't listen to anything. I like that more than listening to music.
This is a great topic for a thread!
1. I do wear headphones. I need a headset with a mic. My current set is a pair of Sennheiser PC310 but I long for the PC 363D.
2. Never with speakers
3. Everything, and I mean that. I generally go for something without any vocals when I'm trying to concentrate. When I'm really in to something I reach for something electronic. Trance or deep house or drum and bass. Quite often it's Hybrid actually.
5. No playlists -spotify is not available inmy location. I do sometimes reach for DJ Bolivia's "music to code by" series: http://djbolivia.blogspot.ca/2011/04/music-to-code-by-volume...

Thanks for sharing! That playlist looks great!
Not sure why more people didn't want to get in on this discussion. I'm sure its probably been brought up before.

1. Do you wear headphones/earbuds, if so, what kind? Sennheiser HD598 Open-Air Headphones
2. Do you use speakers, if so, what kind? When I don't have headphones on I use Klipsch Pro Media 2.1 speakers.
3. What genre(s) of music do you listen to? I listen to everything indie, electronic, classic rock, hip-hop. But I generally prefer instrumental music, or music with minimal lyrics.
4. Do you have a hacking playlist on Spotify? No. But maybe we should start a collaborative Hacker News playlist?!
