That's why I've always told people that I'm a "studio musician" developer. Not a rock star, but a competent professional the studio calls when they need to make a record.
I have worked with a Musician with Phd in music who taught him self coding after an accident broke all the bones in his feet (drink had been taken)
It was fun in the pub when some hit tracks came on he would say ah I think that's one of mine :-)
