In the morning I listen to chill electronic music without lyrics: Tycho, Emancipator, Blackmill, Jon Hopkins

Later in the day I listen to more energetic electronic music (a lot of which is from the Hotline Miami soundtrack): M|O|O|N, Dan Terminus, Carpenter Brut, Daniel Deluxe, 1788-L, Pendulum

Carpenter Brut and a ton of caffeine was vibecoding before LLMs.
My go-to is Paronator - Flowers of Life[1]. It makes an hour melt away.

The soundtracks for those two games are just so so good and perfect for that post-lunch caffeinated focus time.
For me it's the soundtracks to Deus Ex (basically all the games), Mr. Robot, and Halt and Catch Fire.
That is so specific, I can't believe there is someone else out there that flows to Deux Ex. I've had whole sessions with Human Revolution on repeat. You might also like some synthwave: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_Gajv2yJt5M The Moebius FM and Frequency channels have many nice long mixes.
