I use Oz Code debugger extension - I love all the things it does. It even predicts future events that can cause bad things to happen and warns you before your debugging pointer gets there....

What are you listening to while you code?
TOBACCO - Dimensional Hum - YouTube[^]
This album, right now. Tomorrow, something different
When I was growin' up, I was the smartest kid I knew. Maybe that was just because I didn't know that many kids. All I know is now I feel the opposite.

I like Dance / EDM very very low in volume.

EDM is an insanely popular choice among the devs I know.
I listen to TOBACCO a lot, they're sort of EDM'ish but more ambient than dance usually. Kind of a weird mix. And they're off beat a lot so you have to be good with that. Some people find that jarring

Currently, the sweet sound of silence! 
I find concept albums to be the best, especially double albums. A short list, off the top of my head and without providing links in no specific order: (sorry, too busy now!)
0: Pink Floyd - The Wall
1: Neal Morse Band - The Similitude of a Dream
2: Spock's Beard - Snow
3: Dream Theater - Scenes From a Memory
4: Queensryche - Operation Mindcrime I and II
5: Symphony X - V (The New Mythology)
I usually only listen to music while coding after business hours when I'm less apt to be interrupted.

Have you checked out Steven Wilson's solo stuff, particularly 'The Raven That Refused to Sing (and Other Stories)'? Good stuff! I saw him a few months ago in Pensacola in a club...small audience, but they put on an amazing show.

I've listened to some of his solo stuff, but like him with PT better.
Would love to see him/them in person. If I would have known they were playing in Pensacola I would have come over, I'm in Jax!
I do all my own stunts, but never intentionally!

Dream Theater will be there in a few weeks. (27th) I just got back from seeing them in Chicago. The second half of the show is 'Scenes from a Memory' in it's entirety.
BTW, I'm about 90 miles west of Tallahassee...most of my customers are in FL.

Check out The Art of Noise - The Seduction of Claude Debussy
It's an operatic biography laid out in scenes.
It's also a really great meld of improvisational electronic and classical music.

If you can keep your head while those about you are losing theirs, perhaps you don't understand the situation.

i'm down with the message, but the genre isn't my cup of tea.

Well, my "cup of tea" is moonshine.

Generally a personalized Pandora channel - right now it is Pink Martini, Devil Doll, Squirrel Nut Zippers, and anything else I might have done a thumb up on lately

Lots of different music.
This[^] has been designed for it.
|
|
|
|

It depends on the day and the mood...
last weeks have been epic music mixes like: this one[^]
but I do like too: celtic, new age, electronic, deep house, minimalistic, chill out, lounge, jazz....
One thing is a must if it has to be during work time, it should have few or no lyrics (the voices can distract me)
After work... my tastes are much much wider.
I always say: Each moment has its music, and each music has its moment.
M.D.V. 
If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?
Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you
Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

I don't.
When I listen to music I tend to listen to the music.
Which means I'm losing my concentration on the programming.
But on my way to and from work I listen a lot to Schöngeist and Mono at the moment.

The Remixed album from Nicolas Dominique. It's melodic, powerful and with a total lack of lyrics, it doesn't distract me.

i'll give it a listen

The sound of silence. But not Simon&Garfunkel's song. I mean silence helps me focus on programming.
Sorry for my bad English
