I also mostly listen to music without vocals when I'm developing, unless I'm doing grunt work. It gets me into a nice flow. Sometimes the music I make really jives with what I'm creating on screen and somehow it's really motivating. I mostly listen faux 80's synthpop while developing so I can feel like I'm a montage, but when I'm in a really pretentious mood I like some classical music as well (mostly string quartets / piano trio's because I find a whole orchestra to bombastic).
