Maine farmer Posted January 20, 2017 Report Posted January 20, 2017 Why does certain music seem to go better with certain activities? For example, when I am driving a truck or farm tractor, country music is the perfect background music, but when I once listened to classic music while working, it just felt weird , almost like an out of body experience? Also in movies, they always play a certain type of music when someone is sneaking around, and there is always a certain type of music when the bad guy shows up. Why is it so effective at setting the mood? Are we preconditioned, or is it something else? Quote
DrKrettin Posted January 23, 2017 Report Posted January 23, 2017 I have no idea why, but it is certainly the case. Every classical composer has a different mood, so that I can play chess or do a maths problem when listening to Mozart, but no way could I do this if Beethoven were in the background.. Quote
Zina Posted February 24, 2017 Report Posted February 24, 2017 Guess we've been inspired by movies, it enhance a moment with some background music like i movies maybe? Quote
