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?
I’m an open format DJ, so I listen to everything except Hick Hop, and that annoying sub-genre of electronic music that consists of little more than someone repeating the same word or phrase over a simple drum beat. Have no idea what it’s called, but kids under 30 seem to love it and I just don’t understand why.
