Leaving out blues - or dumping in with other? Considering how many of the options hardly even qualify as music?
It's liking talking about classical music and leaving out baroque. Or Mozart. Or Beethoven.
I presume you accidentally left off the 'joke' icon.

Presume away - since you are correct!
Blues are cool, but I assume the survey author just put down the ones they could think of at the time - obviously not a Blues fan!
- I would love to change the world, but they won’t give me the source code.

when I do decide to listen to music when I code. I usually don't listen to music when I code.

I love Soma.FM! I use Radio Ripper[^] (pardon the shameless plug  ) to listen to it.

I usually listen to Rap, when I wake up. I make a cup of tea for myself, listen to Eminem for 30 minutes to make sure system is up and running. 
But I do listen to Pop, Jazz and any other kind of music. In many categories, I love Bollywood music. If you guys could get a chance to listen to Indian music or Pakistani music, please do listen. Folk songs are very interesting, Bhangra and so on.
But since we were given radios, so I would chose Rap only.

This is a good suggest! Because, I mostly listen to Rap (like 80% of my time) but I also listen to Jazz, Pop and other genres.
I think it's "Best Genre for CodeProject" survey.

I love my noise-cancelling headphones
Sometimes I put them on without any music and it's all I need.
Some other days/tasks I need to shake things a bit so I go to some more aggressive stuff.
Pure Pop and Rock are usually only used to create a low volume background environment (with the headphones).
I've also read somewhere that music and coding stimulate the same part of the brain, which causes concurrent access. As our brain is not shaped to do multiple things at a time, this can be a problem.
I honestly feel it especially when I like the music... it easily gets me distracted from the task.

One day I listen to electronic (dance, trap, chill out, trap, trip hop, drum 'n' bass, trance, dubstep...), the other to metal (black, death, doom, heavy, thrash, goth, stoner), yet another to classical (medieval, baroque, classical, romantic, modern) or pop (just about anything) and probably I listen to all of them on a single day...
I also listen to music almost the entire day (dancing and cooking at the same time isn't recommended).
Whatever fits my mood! And this survey doesn't even begin to describe my moods
Voted "other".

That includes doing:
- Documentation
- Testing
- Reviewing (the easy type)
- Tedious work (which ever work is the mensioned)
OR
whenever working without music is more distracting than working with music... e.g. when people are doing renovasions right outside my office.
When it comes to development, I try to have no distractions.

It depends on how simple/complex the code. Complex or new to me -nothing. 'Bulk' code or simple debugging, Rock, Classical, Country, Filk. Depends on my mood.

Are you still coding in Turbo Pascal? All things need upgrades.
