Analysing survey results



I made a pie chart to help visualise the results of my survey. Indie is obviously the most popular genre. 
I analysed the age groups from the results and found that for indie music, the most popular age is 17- 21.
The closest following genre is pop. The age range is slightly lower at 14-18. This is probably due to a major part of pop is boy bands that generally attract a younger audience, particularly in females. Boy bands are major in the music industry currently. They have the biggest fan bases and produce most merchandise. 

Classical was least popular. Statistically looking at the results, this may be due to the fact that my survey included less people of a higher age 25-4, who was the main age of people who favoured classical music and therefore less people could vote for it.

The rock genre proved popular among 20-24 year olds. This is because rock is from an older generation before pop dominated the music industry.  

Rap music was most popular over 18. Nobody under 18 said they favoured rap music; this may be because rap usually contains graphic and explicit language that younger people may not have access to or enjoy.

RnB was common in 16-20 mainly however did have a few older as it is a neutral, common genre for radio and TV with a mix of catchy songs and popular artist mixes.
