I usually listen to any songs but when I really want to focus on work, I like to listen to melody that makes me calm down.
2 Hour Beautiful Piano Music for Studying and Sleeping γBGMγ on Youtube.
As a developer, there's a unique rhythm to the process of coding. It's more than just syntax and algorithms; it's a feeling that pulses through your veins when you're fully immersed in your work, solving problems and crafting solutions. That feeling inspired me to create something specialβa track that speaks to every coder out there. I'm excited to share developer journey with my latest creation: "Coder in the Zone."
_Lyrics :
Code in my veins, got the syntax in my mind,
Hunting for bugs, gotta make the system shine.
Pushed till late, my screen's glowing bright,
No more errors, gotta make it right.
From debugging loops to endless lines,
Iβm solving problems, one function at a time.
Stack Overflow? Yeah, I read the threads,
The journey's tough, but I move ahead.
Git commit, push it live to the branch,
Build the code, make it sleek, make it dance.
Late-night hours, caffeine in my cup,
But this is the grind, canβt ever stop.
No more βHello World,β itβs time for the real deal,
Building the future, with the code I feel.
From front-end frames to back-end calls,
Iβm breaking down barriers, coding through walls.
[Chorus]
If youβve got the code, then take the lead,
No oneβs gonna stop you, plant the seed.
Break down the code, solve the riddle,
Keep on grinding, no matter the middle.
From errors to success, every lineβs a test,
With every push, Iβm giving my best.
Itβs not easy, but Iβm unstoppable,
Like a coder in the zone, Iβm untouchable._
I have been listening to edm-ish music for the past ~25-years while I am in front of my laptop working. I, like many, find songs that have lyrics I know well, or those that are familiar from my childhood or teen years are too distracting. So, now of course with the list of available genres growing almost on a daily basis, just labeling something as 'electronic' or 'edm' is quite vague and somewhat ambiguous, but if I had to list my favorite genres to listen to while I am coding, it would have to be 'electronic', 'hip-hop', 'house', 'deep-house', and 'indietronica'. I have curated my own lists of songs that keep me focused, even while I'm dancing in my chair. One of my favorite playlists is also the first one I compiled for this specific need, if you like you are more than welcome to check it out on Spotify at open.spotify.com/playlist/0nAyjGmZ....
Eminem: Mom's Spaghetti
Me: codes furiously
Palms are sweaty.
knees weak
This is my fav
I don't code to βmusicβ but sounds. Lofi girl on YouTube does it for me. Chill beats to code to, study, chill to always do the job.
J. Hayden - The creation
For me it is hard to listen to things with singing or catch guitar riffs while planning my code or actually coding. So during those times, I am usually listening to lo-fi of any type or chill-hop.
Don't hate me but gotta go with As if it's your last by BLACKPINK
