Which Genre of Music Helps You During Development?

[Milennin]

Mostly just my game music that I plan to use for the scene/map I'm working on, otherwise some instrumental music that I can put on a loop. Sometimes, I'll get tracks from anime/games I like and make them repeatable .ogg's, so I can listen to them in my project.
Music with lyrics, or a playlist with a bunch of different songs get very distracting to me.

Game music for me, but any genre of game music. Even if I don't normally like it, if it somehow helps then ok.

I guess it can make some sense, since it is a game I'm making so game music somehow works for me with that logic? Unsure, but that's why I try and do if I want to use music to help and inspire me anytime.

I listen to a lot of melodic death metal and some folk metal, stuff like Amon Amarth, Ensiferum, etc. Songs about battles and things.

I either listen to video game music (vgmradio.com is a great source for that!) or listen to the music from the game I'm currently developing. Playing video games and listening to them gets my motivation skyrocketing.
