All mine are power ballads/rock and are terrible for lead foot. I find The Prodigy the worst culprit for that though.
If i wanted to relax more and drive slowly I'd go with some classical like Beethoven or one of those many chill-out albums from the ministry of sound.

You guys have stereos? I pulled mine out to save weight and lower the engine load via the alternator supplying power to the stereo.

In the city I listen to whatever the car next to me is playing (this gets harder in the winter, you have to get closer). On the highway I listen to road noise and try to figure out which gap it is I need to fill. Then I get distracted and forget to do the a-b-a tests.

But I would listen to New Age instrumental music for this purpose.

I listen to "Gonna Make You Sweat (Everybody Dance Now)" at least once a week. I used to listen once a day when my Ford was still alive. Boy do I miss that sound system.

i have been getting stuck on national public radio lately, i tend to trust the news more than most other sources, and most of the other programs are easy to half listen too.

Music doesn't really effect my driving/riding style (unless I'm already driving/riding fast), so it's usually thrash/black/death metal of some kind.

It kind of keeps it all in perspective with the "live and let live" attitude and keeps me mellow about those around me.

You and my Wife would certainly agree, but...

For me, it's Pat Metheny or miscellaneous Techno/Trance to focus on FE.
