At the moment i'm writing software for my bikeputer, when im programming it has to be anything that cant be classed as background music but still catchy at the same time. right now its Beck - Hotwax (everything on the odelay album), but only because this is just casual coding (perl).
If its something im less versed in then its usually soundtracks to movies in the 90s (Shawshank Redepmtion soundtracks quite good).
Sometimes i find myself listening to cradle of filth, trivium, system of a down. If i have higher stress levels its royksopp, and other 'chill out' music.
If im doing electronics its gotta be the human league or nothing (especially when soldering) simply because being high on nicotine (or craving nicotine) makes my soldering iron hand shake light a motherfucker and its the only thing that cancels it out.

People keep telling the riffraff to go back to /b/, but I think they're actually coming from /lang/…

Just a small computer to fit on my motorcycle, to play mp3s, geocaching, textual directions, sensors, etc.

Heh... i have a serious answer :)
I usually listen to dub music. Preferably dub with as little lyrics as possible, in order to be able to keep my focus. My favourite is the double CD "The K&D Sessions" by "Kruder & Dorfmeister".

This is good advice (except for the recommendation of Bug Powder Dust, which not even a K&D remix can make good). If anyone wants to get deeper into the dub vein, I'd recommend Basic Channel (minimalist, dub-inspired techno), Rhythm & Sound, Deepchord, and Echospace.
