Such a random post! But I just felt in the need of sharing my favorite playlists while coding/working. I am always looking for new playlists to boost my productivity and help me focus.
I have recently started working in an open-plan office. This sounds nice, but the ugly truth is that I get constantly distracted by the noise and chatting. So I have bought a great pair of Bose Headphones with noise cancellation, which I found them to be a great invest (quite expensive, but worth it).
On the other hand, I also tend to get distracted by music in my own language (Spanish), and also by pop music. Probably because my brain forces me to sing along.
So, these are my most played Spotify playlist for working:
Tomorrowland Official Playlist
Inception OST
Focus Coding
Pure Mellow Jazz
Orgánica
This is Hans Zimmer
What about you? Which are your favorite playlists?

Soundscapes For Gaming are amazing! Thanks! :)
Post rock or electronica work often well with coding, I'm with you 👍
the stop everything is snowing sounds giving me a trans right now. I think I can finish this feature in a week with this music. thanks.
I know its not Spotify powered, but I can't get enough of ChilledCow's lofi hip hop radio on YouTube - youtube.com/watch?v=hHW1oY26kxQ
ChilldedCow has a profile with a daily playlist on Spotify if you want to save some bandwidth stream the radio station. open.spotify.com/playlist/0vvXsWCC...
This and Chillhop's lofi hip hop radio are my top go tos for programming soundtracks
There is a couple similar playlists now too:

I regularly visit your site and find a lot of interesting information. Not only good posts but also great comments. Thank you and look forward to your page growing stronger.
Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai
This is pretty damn good. Russian hardbass.

Music where the bass don't go like "bum bum bum buuum bum bum bum bum bam bum" but more like "buuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuumm" you'll hear what I mean
I'm not using Spotify but here's what I use to play for productivity.you can also listen to these on youtube:

I have three principal moods when coding:
Designing: I use instrumental music so I can think clearly
Researching and Coding: When I have to read documentation, implement and test new things. In that case I like fast tempo music without vocals
Only Coding: I already have the designs, the tasks and I know the technology I'm using so I can listen to music with vocals
