For me, it depends on what kind of work I'm doing, if I'm doing auth or something similar which is so simple that I can do with half mind, I listen to music in background, but they never are loud.

But if it requires focus or you're stuck at a test which just won't pass, I'll pause music to focus till I figure out, or if I'm doing research which needs attention, then I won't listen to music.

But 90% of things come naturally, so music most of the time.

Without music I cannot code!!

Music most times for me. I usually go for the slow (not too slow), low-pitched ones. I feel they aid concentration for me, and listening with an earpiece or a headset helps block external noise and distractions.

Music helps me focus most of the time, even with lyrics many days. It just depends on the style and instrumentation I need for my current mood. I listen to everything from classical to jazz to metalcore to contemporary to melodic rap to cinematic scores.

Sometimes all in the same day.

Yeah, I will easily get distracted to "someone's speak" around me. So i will listen to music while coding to get focused. But, some bass extended music also will distract me from coding. So, while coding or designing, I mostly prefer jazz or melody kinda stuff.
If it was a boring work, then this won't work.
So I will go with vice versa.

I find silence more distracting than music most of the time

For me personally, it differs. I always start with a mix (Lo-Fi / Tech House / Techno) and from there, a couple of things could happen:

• I forget about the music and just code (usually when I don't have to do hard thinking)
• I bump the music to the max on my headphones (usually when I am pumped up because I know how to do something / fix a problem I had for days)
• The music stops and I don't pay attention to it, therefore it remains stopped until further notice (usually when I am really deep into it and I need my highest concentration)

Music pretty much all the time for me. It helps me focus. I pretty much listen to instrumental music though. If there’s lyrics, then I get distracted. If someone is talking around me while I code, I put headphones on and I’m good to go.

Gotta have music running in the background. If I’m familiar with what I am doing it can be anything but if I am doing something new or complex it’ll be some downtempo/chill playlist mostly without lyrics.

I don't think your conclusion is scientific in any way. It is subjective and so doesn't matter. I code to music with no lyrics, so Bethoveen, orchestral type music or anything that inspires on the day. The most important thing is focus. We all know how and what makes us focus.
