I often listened trance when coding, some good one that i really liked. But whats weird is that i noticed i coded much faster that way. Worked on some problems, did a little bit of thinking about how i could solve it, put this into code and it worked.
I worked on my map editor this time. The coding went much easily like that, dunno why.

But lately i prefer silence or radio in background with some talk show or something, when in car and driving the i listen the trance, dream trance to be specific.

But mostly yes, silence, maybe its my age. Getting older and older will make you need more silence. Dunno, maybe its just me. After 1,5 years i will be 30.
