The BPM on that femtanyl track is pretty high, high bpm music can help us ADHD patients. I find it soothing.
Me too, fast music really help me get into focus without needing a lot of effort
Yeah, it's a proper thing. Supported by science and all that jazz. I love it. I've got tattoos to show my love for music (people always see em and ask "what instrument do you play?" They are always hella confused when I reply with "none"), it was nice finding out years after as to just why music is so important for me. It literally regulates my brain if I pick the right stuff.
I mean I love playing bass/guitar but I enjoy music not made by conventional instrumebts a lot
I get that. And I have dabbled with making music. But I would never call myself a musician, producer, whatever. It's kinda corny given the source but, Fred Durst said it best for me when he said "music is key/it's the way we're set free/from all this world is throwing at me". I'm 38. Music has been central to my identity for 30yrs now.
I'm a neurotypical musican and this has got to be the most interesting thing I've heard all day. Out of curiosity, if the BPM and pace of the track is still high but the song has really soothing instruments (soft trumpets, harp, kalimba type stuff) or really harsh instruments (distorted guitars mixed with chainsaws), would the music still be soothing? I'm curious if their is a relation between the sound and calmness aswell as speed
In short, yes. Hot Chip has some pretty high tempo stuff that I'd still call smooth. As for harsh noises, NIN soothes the fuck out of me when I'm all wound up.
It's not a magic bullet though, some stuff can irritate the fuck out of me at times when usually I love it. shrugs mental illness is complex at times!
I would have never thought that NIN could be calming, to me some NIN stuff feels like I've got blood poisoning or something haha
I mean, they've got stuff that is incredibly jarring when I'm a bit wound up. But the higher intensity stuff is so good when I'm stressed. I sorta slip into the stream and shit just seems to "flow" better. Even if I'm trying to meditate a bit to bring down my anxiety. It sounds wild, but yeah, shit works.
