radio3.cbc.ca

or maybe not, some of the better Canadian indie tunes being pretty distracting...

Cheers

A while ago I got a bunch of indie video game soundtracks -- https://plus.google.com/110303498283226939246/posts/DhRBXwY1nqv

The sale is over, but the music is still out there.

Try Pendulum. I find their stuff great for having in the background while coding.

Recently I was suggested Ludovica Einaudi and I find it greet for coding. I agree with coolgod, neo-classical music tends to be the best. The smooth music that just flows as well as the lack of lyrics makes me work continously without obvious pauses in my coding.

Does anybody know where I could get tons of neo-classical (or classical) music for really cheap? (legally though)

Same. You just got to filter out the more rough songs.

I also listen to [url=http://emancipator.bandcamp.com/album/soon-it-will-be-cold-enough]Emancipator and [url=http://music.mindthings.net/album/lifes-path-reissue]Mindthings which is more subtle BGM. Then there's the Glitch Mob ([url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pvR-xBzmEZA]Monday Remix | [url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nxk1BY6wKT0]Drive It Like You Stole It) when I want something more electronic to mix in with Pendulum, mixes, etc.

For January 2013, music.cbc.ca, Hit the Best of R2 2012 specialty channel; the best of Radio 2.  Good for those times when your pondering, loose and not too too deep in the zone.
