On: Music for Programming

Have you listened to Warp Records more than just the Autechre releases (which are of course superb)?

Every single album in the Artificial Intelligence series (including the first Autechre) are genre-defining classics.

Yes, Warp have influenced my music tastes a great deal. ae, BOC, plaid, aphex twin (and his many guises), squarepusher and µ-ziq are all staples.

Another album I listen to a great deal whilst working:

That said, I have varied taste, grind-core, industrial and doom all feature in the mix.

edit: added plaid - can't believe I missed them out, as they're one of my favourite artists.

Plaid's new album The Digging Remedy worked for me pretty well, even though it had a bit of mixed reviews.
