Really interesting how music works. And affects mood aswell. If I come to work blasting heavy ass aggressive metal, then I feel aggressive and also... Kinda relaxed and happy. Mixed bag of good stuff.
But you listen to something melancholy and watch yourself come right down to low really quickly.
Although strangely music that I find depressing, my wife tells me she finds relaxing.
I was listening to Heilung the other day and I find that puts me in a really good place. Like a state of readiness, but my wife says it makes her chest feel tight and triggers a fright response. Which was interesting. But she'll listen to Damien rice and say it's calming and relaxing, but I find it sad and depressing.
It's fascinating what/how music affects us.
