I don't usually listen to Spotify's generic playlists as they tend to full of with pop songs but this one is not bad that all. It's not the best of course but it's not much distracting as well.

Personally I like to listen to piano playlists of Pixar or Disney soundtracks. Helps really tap into my creative side. An artist I love is Pogo, check him out on YouTube.

I installed Poolside FM for Macintosh and I haven't used anything else for the past 3 weeks. It's seriously so good.

My music changes depending on whether I'm doing ideation, design work, implementation or writing test cases š. It's mostly the famous Deep Focus playlist from Spotify most of the time and sometimes instrumental heavy metal or some Punjabi songs during implementation and test cases.

I listen to worship music a lot of days, but sometimes I can't focus very well with music so I just turn it off.
Classical music mostly :D
Soundescape
Shameless plug: https://soundescape.io
I use it myself while working, ambient soundscapes are one of the best ways to keep productive while working IMO.
Hans Zimmer & Retrowave! Feels like I'm in an epic montage

Real programmers code in silence.
In all seriousness, it has long been proven that music distracts your brain, especially if there's lyrics in it, so instrumental stuff is your best bet.
My go-to genre to get pumped is jazz (nothing like some good ol' Mingus to get the code flowing):
And then a bit of Davis for the late evenings:

Romantic music is great too:
And some electronic music for a change:

Depending on the mood but mostly these:
