How do different genres of music effect your mind and body?I’m doing this for a project, and if you have any experiences it would help. Ex. how do you feel when you hear a certain genre of music? It all hinges on the persons mindset. While soft soothing music is calming to one person,it may cause a melancholy reaction from another and yet be boring to another. 9 comments to How do different genres of music effect your mind and body? |

Certainly a driving bass beat makes me feel all odd

I forgot where I read it… but there was a study published not too long ago about this.
To sum the article up: The mood of the music effects how you end up feeling.
For example, loud music with screaming vocals tend to make listeners angry and depressed.
Calm, ambient music tends to put listeners in a relaxed state.
It also studied the effect lyrics have on moods as well, and determined your mood pretty much reflects the theme of the lyrics.
Common sense really. I know everytime I hear "Rock and Roll all Night" I just want to hop in a big van with all my friends and party. But hey. That's just me.

repetitive music is exciting the first time I hear it but gets old FAST.
If I hear repetitive beats and words in songs when i am around people I don't know/ in a social situation I feel nervous! majorly.
If I am very very tired (just woke up) or anxious and I hear repetitive beats/lyrics/phrases in music I have a tenancy to repeat them in my head over and over and… It is really bad when I am woken up with it because I absolutely cannot get it out of my head!
Music that is more intricate makes me tired and gives me headaches at first..but the same music..if I like it and listen to it a lot.. I get use to it and the intricateness of it is extremely soothing to me! Feels like focusing on it just unwinds me.
country lyrics annoy me because the lyrics are an important important part for me and I don't like what a lot of county singers sing about (the ones I have heard!)
rap..repetitive.. but if I like the lyrics I can bond with it
Poppy fun, light stuff makes me happy..but depends on my mood.
Rocking stuff good to dance too.
If I can really relate to the music I get that nice angsty feeling which gives me a boost. Or if I'm not in that kind of mood.. I listen to other stuff.
simple, mellow music I listen to when i'm feeling melancholy-like and that is good but later on I feel very irritable.
emotional, intricate, rock/pop alternative indie with smooth sexy vocals and strange lyrics are best for me.

like what evry1 else was saying..
rock= slightly angered pumped up energetic
rap=easily annoyed but for some reason it makes me feel like im the coolist thing in the world like im the boss
country=…well all i can say is that did you know we aren’t allowed to say hillbilly anymore…the correct term is country music star XD
regae=makes me relaxed, chill and so on
techno=….is BOMB there are two main types of techno the type that pumps you up and makes u energetic bouncy and all that
then there is trance stuff aka house and that makes you feel really awesome like you’re a philosopher and really calm
jazz= can be relaxing and sensual O.o like u know haha
Rock music makes me peaceful and sometimes energetic.
Classical music makes me feel (depending on what type of notes they play) like crying and sentimental.
for me, it doesn’t really matter the genre of music. i can feel relaxed from classical and from death-metal. for me it has to do with the tempo of the music. faster music tends to make me more anxious and alert and energetic, while slower music tends to relax my body and slow down my thoughts. Along with the tempo of the music, whether it is a major or minor song effects me more. a happy major song tends to put a smile on my face. while a minor song tends to make me more in a deep thinking kind of mood where it could be seen as depressed but its not. so thats really how it effects me
