Music is heard throughout different frequencies and sounds. It affects your emotions and memory as it activates the limbic system.
Songs may release dopamine or cause reflection based on how the song makes you feel personally. Music can be broken down into multiple pieces considering rhythm, lyrics, melody and notes, where these components may impact emotional storytelling inside of the music.
Lyrics often relate to the life you live; melody creates an emotional tone. Even without lyrics, your brain still interprets sound patterns as emotional.
Through music, I believe you can change how you feel or understand the way you feel more as artists connect with their audience.
