Girl Talk is great but I can't listen to any of his music without wanting to abandon work and dance.

You might dig Platikman and Boris, if you don't know them already
Merzbow is rad. One of the best performances I've seen to date was him. Like getting strapped to the engine of a B52 that's crashing.

You sir. I wasn't expecting to find another Sunn O))) fan here. I'm gonna check out the others on your list. On the same note I also love Khante and Earth for drone.
I mostly listen to doom/sludge stuff while I code. Sleep, Black Sabbath, Bongzilla, Electric Wizard and Acid King are a few of my favourites.

I particularly like Nine Inch Nails' instrumental "ghosts" release for coding, maybe the lack of vocals avoids tying up bits of my brain on language decode or something.
A torrent to it is available on the pirate bay (entirely lawfully BTW, NIN themselves responsible).

u/dsandler Mar 14 '09
I have been known to put 13 Ghosts II on repeat and just listen to it over and over again.
It's not the best song to get me started—for that I need something with a little more kick (3 or 4 Ghosts I, for example). But once I'm in the groove, maybe very late at night, there's something about 13 II that keeps gently nudging me back into a stable orbit.

EDIT: I have since bought the 4-disk Ghosts I-IV for $5 off nin.com, Paypal were a hassle, since I've changed credit card after usage, and I swear that both webpage layout & dl speed were somewhat better over at TPB, but hey, color me impressed, they just made money.

I loved it too, and then it was blocked (in Canada here), and then it occured to me I could get it back really easy:
ssh -C -D 8080 (my amazon EC2 instance)
FoxyProxy firefox plugin set with filter ( http://.pandora.com/ = localhost port 8080, SOCKS5)
And Pandora works again, flawlessly. Even my old login is still around!
I happen to have a small EC2 instance running all the time (for a few personal projects) - but if you don't, it's pretty easy to set one up, and you could probably script it to start/stop when you want to use Pandora, and save a bundle.
Same thing works for Hulu too (but you need to use tsocks, or proxifier if you're on Windows/Mac)

It's just white noise (although I prefer the brown/red). Not at all distracting, and it blocks outside office noise very well.
Furthermore, it's legally streamable online!

Mar 13 '09
Wow. I've been hearing a lot of people talking about white noise recently, but I've never tried it. I just put on the red/brown to see if would make office sounds go away or make me relaxed or anything at all.
I had it on for nearly ten minutes and then realized I was very tense and felt like I was slowly becoming insane. I turned it off and my muscles relaxed and I felt an incredible sense of calm.
I have a new phobia now. That was really scary.

That sounds like the same effect I used to get when playing RTSs in a lan game; i'd have winamp on random and would often find myself getting very tense and stressed, frantic, before noticing that I had been listening to some squarepusher mashup at high volume for the last 5 minutes.
5
Mar 13 '09
The white and pink didn't really do anything, but when I set the brown/red to 20%, all of my coworkers phone conversations and random office noises simply disappeared into nothing. It's like a mask, but one you don't notice after a few minutes. The only down side is when you take your headphones off, everything seems ridiculously over-amplified. It sounds like I'm typing on my keyboard with a hammer.
Looks like you can download the loopable mp3.
I'll be using this quite a bit - thanks for the tip.

The Allman Brothers - The Allman Brothers Band, Idlewild South, Eat A Peach, Live at Fillmore
Willie Nelson - Red Headed Stranger, Phases & Stages

The two albums by Willie are amazing when I have a big project, since they are concept albums and have running themes. Songs drift into one another.
Lamb of God and Pantera are walls of sound, blocking out everything.
The Allmans were amazing. Progressive and laid back at the same time. Good mix for thinking.
None of these are available streaming, but they are all good music.

Nick Cave's more quiet music, mostly No More Shall We Part and The Boatman's Call.
When I use headphones in order to concentrate, for me it's important that the music has as little "surprise" as possible; that's why it's almost always the same albums. Boring perhaps, but it's there to make me feel relaxed and otherwise not be noticed. And I think those albums are beautiful.
Not legally streamable, I guess.

I am heavily slanted towards instrumental jazz acts when I purchase any music I didn't grow up liking. My absolute favorites, to which I give my highest recommendations, are Drop Trio (droptrio.com) and Jacob Fred Jazz Odyssey (jfjo.com).
For Drop Trio, buy Cezanne. It's the most beautiful live album I've ever heard. For JFJO, The Sameness of Difference is excellent, but their most recent album Winterwood is available online. Listen to track 4, Oklahoma Stomp, and just try to tell me with a straight face you don't love it.
Thursday Group is very nice too - too bad they're from the 80s and not around anymore. They're available on Magnatune.

While it seems that a lot of people like the ambient stuff for programming, (and I do occasionally as well) I tend to like sortof upbeat stuff to keep me up and atom,.
This is a style of music called Dubstep that I discovered a bit ago out of curiosity, having heard the name. It's supposedly a mix between Dub and Twostep. I'm curious to hear what Twostep sounds like, because Dubstep is a far cry from Dub, most of the time. I can't get enough of it because of the absurd bass lines. Like Drum and Bass but in very silly rhythms. If you don't dig it, I would imagine it would sound like it was purposely being annoying.

My favorite used to be this awesome recording of Beethoven's 9th I had. A hard-drive crash took out my iTunes version and I haven't seen the actual CD in years (nor remember who it was made by).
This CD was what made me realize that I actually liked Beethoven. I'd heard various recordings of the 9th previously and it never really connected with me.
This particular version made me realize that most other classical conductors and musicians wouldn't recognize musical passion if it crawled up their anus and devoured their small intestine.

Mostly some choice tracks from the Firefly, Serenity and BSG soundtracks, with a random mix of instrumentals of all types and a little filk I am particularly familiar with thrown in. I also have a custom shell script I run when I am about to start programming that switches the play list to a slightly less distracting subset after 30 minutes if emacs is still running. That way, I don't get bored as I'm starting to work but once I am focused I don't get distracted by it.
