Comment on Why Does Music Feel So Good?parent

Comments

I'd be interested to see the results of this study if the participants were exposed to ambient drone music, such as sounds of a didgeridoo or a Steve Roach piece, that music often consists of long drawn out tones that don't fluctuate frequently and often lack a "melody". For me, it puts me a deep trance like state of mind that is very calm and peaceful. Humming along to the long tones also feels good, it's like your body resonates with the music.

>Steve Roach

Steve Reich

Could be either... (I like both, though Mr. Reich has probably changed the world a bit more).
