I belong to the part that really performs better while listening to some music. It works best when I’m working from an open office space with lots of distractions and unwanted noise that prevents me from concentrating. So the only solution is music in my headphones.

Important question here is to how exactly do you listen to some music at work. I think that one of the best options here are online streaming services (8tracks, Focus@Will)

or recommendation and streaming apps like MuzApp https://muzapp.com/

I'm in the same situation, my office has an open floor plan and can get very distracting at times. +1 for 8tracks, I haven't created any myself but there are some great electronic playlists with minimal vocals for coding.

I think that the social aspect of it is actually what makes it fun here. Quality playlist is a hard thing to find and editors' picks are not always the most suitable ones
