The house next door to me is going up for sale soon and I’d like to delay that process as much as possible. What would be the most annoying music I could play when prospective buyers are next door?
Not sure about annoying, but have you considered psyopus? It tends to be my goto to piss people off
I’m just going to say Nightcore.
I get that Nightcore has an audience, but what makes it annoying for me is when I am trying to search for an obscure song and think I’ve found it, only to realize that it’s yet another low-effort nightcore remix.
Earthbound - Inside Dungeon Man
Love the soundtrack but hate this doozy
Speaking of video games, This from World of Goo might work if OP wants a bit more subtlety.
The beginning (end is similar) is the only part that’s in the game and despite sounding pretty generic it somehow manages to be deeply unsettling in some way.

Disclaimer: Loud audio warning around 2:50
Also, you’ll probably need eye bleach and a sanity check after a few times watching or listening to that.
Christian Rock
There’s a McDonald’s down the block from me that plays nothing but Christian music all the damn time. I honestly feel bad for the employees.
Oml can’t stand that shet polluting the airwaves
Something like this could get interesting
A low pitched hum that they don’t even notice until they leave and appreciate the silence when they’re away from it.
i already have tinnitus; i literally can’t sleep without some noise to block it out.
Calm down satan.
(Top answer though)
For me, it has to do with context.
Upbeat pop music while heading to the finish line of a 5k? Pretty good.
Upbeat pop music while I’m waiting in the psychiatrist’s office so I can tell them my life is spiraling out of control? Not preferable.

Once described to me as “a song you can club someone to death with”

When German people go to hell, or skiing, they are forced into little tents, served shitty overpriced beer, and are subject to repeated blows to their ears by a type of music whispered fearfully only in dark circles as schlagermusik.
Years after leaving the German part of Switzerland I still get A!-tem!-los! in my head out of nowhere sometimes :(
Oo-la-pa-loo

That’s pretty accurate, actually. Same goes for “Apres Ski”, which is the same but more annoying and sexist.
Oktoberfest?
Let him who hath understanding
Reckon the Month of the Beast
For it is a Human Month…
I was going to say polka music but this is close enough
chicken dance it whatever the hell it’s called

Reggaeton
This. Most annoying thing I’ve ever heard.
This is the one, OP. Enjoy it while it lasts, some day this stuff will be restricted by treaty inshallah.
Cam here to say this. The beat was catchy the first time I heard it but it is so annoying when they repeat the same thing 200 times in a song. Not creative at all .
Skrillex
My highschool blasted Christmas in Ignace - Arrogant Worms every single day during fundraising drives, they’d stop when they hit their goals. Was very effective.
