Some songs I like

Code: Select all

Ameno by Era
Bring me to life by Evanescence
Comatose by Ayreon

Interesting: http://tomkenyon.com/sound-gifts --- he made some songs which are 'good' for the heart and pineal chakra.. (I added the ' because I'm not sure myself, but the music does feel comforting/relaxing)

Oh, and Mozart =) below is an interesting article on the harmonious frequency of 432Hz, supposably it is a frequency with which the body resonances in an harmonious way.. Explanation (in Dutch) in the following article..

I can't quite find an English article.. I'm sorry. (perhaps google translate can fix the language to english?)

By the way, has anyone ever experienced a severe headache from just listening to music? (Using plugs), I did, some times, but only when I allowed negativity to come in..
I really wonder what the effect of music on our brains is..

I've wondered the same thing. My mother used to say she got headaches from the music that I listened to. Back then it mostly was black metal, but nowadays I'm more of a (rhythmic) noise fan. Those are genres with very much negative energy, as my mother would say, but I find that music incredibly uplifting. It makes me happy and energetic. (Or perhaps it's just venting aggression, but it doesn't make me angry.) My mother gets angry and depressed.

I, on the other hand, can't stand soft and sweet pop songs and stuff like that. It's fake to me. If forced to listen to it for a long time, I can imagine I would get a headache. I've wondered for a long time what it is that makes different people react differently to the same music. "Taste" is too simple an explanation for me, for where does it come from? I think that people feel attracted to the sort of music they recognize themselves in. If you listen to music that seems completely alien to you, it seems probable to me that you would get a headache.

I don't think that I've ever listened to music at 432Hz, I'm going to check that out. My current taste of not-so-negative music is stuff like Dead Can Dance, Enya and Pink Floyd. I also like psytrance; "Cities of the Future" by Infected Mushroom is one of my favourite happy songs. Oh, and "Return (Coming Home)" and "Binary" by The Crüxshadows. The last two I find more comforting than happy actually.

I don't know a lot about the frequencies, except that I'm sure that everything is energy, and all of it vibrates. A lot in the brain has to do with electrical frequencies, I think.. Vibrations..

This site below has some comparisions.. and

Some site wrote:"432 Hz is, in according to many music lovers, nicer for hearing, is softer, brighter and more beautiful than 440 Hz."

Oh, btw, seems a part on the reply to this post I posted in the other thread xD

Ups..

Anyways, I don't think that there should be a standard for what kind of music we should listen to.. But try Mozart, his music is supposed to be pitched at 432Hz =P

Maybe that's why baby's get relaxed hearing classical music, and so do elderly.. I think there's too much that conventional 'science' does not cover.. I do think that what we call "the ancients" knew more =P

I've read your reply in your intro thread. I understand your point of music that is made with a loving intention versus music that is made with a hateful intention. However, my point was that the same song might sound hateful to one person while it sounds loving to another. (Now I'm stretching my point, but you get the idea.) Where is the quality (loving or hateful) of the music located, in the song or in the listener? What is the relation between music and emotion?

The same song can even have different effects on the same person, depending on the circumstances. Sometimes a particular song can move me a great deal (be it in a positive or negative way), other times it doesn't move me at all. The difference in effect cannot come from the song; it must be something in me. Then in what way have I changed from one moment to the next, so that the song now has a different effect on me?
