On my side, I listen to Unreal Tournament OST, Hitman OST by Jesper Kyd and a playlist of tracker music from the 90s on Youtube. Occasionally, I also listen to Kraftwerk "Computerlove" album and Rage Incoming OST.

Oh great choices. I don't know if this is up your alley, but I'll sometimes just "shuffle play" on this site.

And Nectarine can be good sometimes

I just stumbled upon your posts while listening to this Neurodancer compilation: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z-lq20_9_Vs

Man, there's something about those old amiga tunes that keep me coming back. Plus I learned a lot from the demoscene when I was a kid, even tho the amiga was on its way out already.

I binge stuff like that or arcadey songs from mid 2000s games like Need for Speed, UT, when I wanna get fired up before coding or starting my day, or when delivering something under the clock (pressure mine, really)

For focusing, as in real focusing, that's a different story: I prefer ambient peaceful drone songs, or some minimal compositions. Kind of Tomasz Bednarczyk, Chihei Hakateyama, or just plain rain noise.

There's an in between that could be anything, but for what I like to call 'thinking music' I find more moved compositions, like Hania Rani fititng.
