....do NOT listen music. Others are just slag of my profession. 
Which quality you expect listening music and (in theory) coding program?!!

Right now the office is more like a callcenter. What quality of code does one expect to be produced here?
The language is JavaScript. that of Mordor, which I will not utter here
This is Javascript. If you put big wheels and a racing stripe on a golf cart, it's still a f***ing golf cart.
"I don't know, extraterrestrial?"
"You mean like from space?"
"No, from Canada."
If software development were a circus, we would all be the clowns.

If you are home office or have the big luck of having your own room at work it is one thing
On the big offices, where you have 5 people constantly speaking on the phone, 3 others arguing about something, the flush of the toilette and the coffee machine (coffee is really good, but it the machine is quite loud).
Then no... the use of the headset to try to isolate from that acoustic contamination doesn't make people worst programmers than you.

Just imagine code quality if instead of deeping into problem 100% you "isolate" yourself from one noise, making another noise?
CEO who keeps developers together with support should eat his socks.

Low tempo background music is not just "another noise".
Well, it is crystal clear that you have your opinion about music and I have mine.
My point was not about the music, my point was about your absolutism saying "who listen music is bad developer". But, since we could continue for a long while... I am going to choose a better option and don't feed the troll.
This is over for me. Have a nice day

I work in an office where we're constantly berated by project managers, support personnel, even technical engineers who are using our software to test hardware.
I use music to drown out people. I think people feel uncomfortable interrupting you when you have two earphones in and are intently typing. I don't have to listen to the support personnel yapping to stupid customers, explaining what they did wrong, and I don't have to be distracted by every idiot who doesn't know how to configure software correctly.
People behave in different ways. Personally, listening to music increases my efficiency ten-fold. And since a lot of the time it's metal music, my typing is usually much quicker

Don't you feel that source of problem is "cowhouse" where you work? ("open plan" in manager language) Developers should sit in quiet place, free from coffee machines, phones, and managers pissing around. And then you'll need no music and increase your efficiency from 10% till 100%.

100% of the coders at my work agree with you although there's only two of us in a company of 300+ people. Since we have our own offices with a wall that is shared with the manufacturing plant, we both have speakers with the tunes turned up just to the point that people walking down the hall can't hear it, but loud enough to cover up most of the shop noise. We find that not only does metal keep us pumped and coding/CAD-ing faster, it also deters some people from making unnecessary stops in our offices since we usually only turn it down a little when they walk in.

Unfortunately, I have disabled Flash on my browsers, so I cannot run Spotify in them. However, I do have the PC app. Could you perhaps reply with the playlist name so I can hunt it down? Big thanks in advance. My programming music is all minimalist/ambient as well: Kammarheit, Matt Borghi, Psychomanteum, etc.

'coder insiites' -- it's mostly minimal, but there is the odd uplifting tune in there to try and remember not to take anything too seriously. Enjoy

Check out kahvi.org also. A ton of good stuff there. Try their collections to get a flavor. Start with "Tiny Robots".
There is also a great collection of space music called Deep Space Vol 1, 2, & 3 on archive.org.
Here's Vol 1 (the best out of the 3) - https://archive.org/details/gv219

Cheers, I will have a good listen.

Couldn't seem to find the collection Tiny Robots. But the stuff on archive.org was very cool. I like very peaceful ambient music like this when i'm coding. Although, i also tend to mix in some more uplifting tunes. Good to come out of the zone sometimes. Anyway, brilliant cheers

This is a seriously cool playlist. Having a good listen right now: Cheers::

Wicked, I'll have a good listen tomorrow

Have had a good listen. This is some serious ambient stuff. I must admit that i like to throw in a couple of more uplifting happy tunes. Gotta pull back from the zone now and then. Brilliant cheers.

My problem (as an amateur drummer) is that anything with a beat I'm off and out of the coding zone.

I know what you mean. Not that i'm a drummer !!

I have long used the channel dreamscapes on sky fm. Quite nice as well, until they started to flood publicity and limit to 30 mins idle in the free version.

It can be any kind of music from classical to death metal, depending on my mood, but it's mostly progressive rock (Yes, Genesis, Pink Floyd, King Crimson, Porcupine Tree, Spock's Beard, etc.)
