The survey showed that as much as 86% of developers listen to music while coding. Of the major music genres, 42% of developers said they prefer coding to music of the rock/pop variety.
#1 most popular artist to code to: Metallica. Runners-up: Pink Floyd and Linkin Park
#1 biggest ‘guilty pleasure’ artist: Lady Gaga (artists that coders only listen to with their headphones on). Runners-up: Britney Spears and ABBA
#1 least popular artist: Justin Bieber. Runners-up: Lady Gaga and Britney Spears (ironically, these least popular artists also topped the ‘guilty pleasure’ category).
