IRL, I once listed my favorite bands across metal, rock, hip-hop, electronic, and drum n bass and was hit with “that’s standard programmer music”.
As someone with little physical human contact outside of work and actually meeting devs outside to find out they listen to the same music was a little surprising. That was a tiny sample though and this is the web though and people are from all over, what kind of stuff do you listen to? Favorite genres, artists, or just “everything” even noise?
Hardstyle, (Electronic) Hardcore, DnB, Trance. Don’t really mind metal etc either, but I generally don’t listen to it myself. Most pop music bores me because it’s too slow. I need speed and intensity but I don’t really mind repetition.
