I have found several “brown noise” tracks which I find great for getting into the zone.

Right now, my absolute favorite is “cockpit” brown noise (the sound of muffled airline jet noise). For example, you could set this track to repeat endlessly: https://open.spotify.com/track/01Kk9an41cyVj7oIXd2Fsj?si=NnC...

For whatever reason, it gives me the feeling of “fast” (jet), important (I’m the pilot of this important thing?), and cozy (strapped in tight in the cockpit), and I never get the distracted (hmmm! What is this song?) feeling that I usually get from programming to music.

FYI: Difference between “white”, “pink”, & “brown” noise: https://www.soundofsleep.com/2017/07/18/white-pink-brown-noi...

I would summarize the differences between noise types this way:

White noise: equal energy per Hz (flat)

Pink noise: equal energy per octave (-3dB/octave)

Brown noise: spectrum of Brownian motion (-6dB/octave)

White and brown are easy to create mathematically.
