‎Ever rewatched a content because of the music?

‎I was listening 🎧 to music 🎶 while reading and wondered how my brain🧠 actually process these "pixels" of sounds. So I browsed, watched few videos and this is an analysis of my study.

‎     The truth is that music does not exist outside your brain. Music is a series of vibration that goes through your ear activating the auditory cortex for sound. The brain converts air vibrations into pitch, rhythm, and tone in the temporal lobe's auditory cortex. The brain's motor cortex, cerebellum, and basal ganglia are activated by rhythm, prompting the urge to move or tap along. Music stimulates the hippocampus and amygdala, linking sounds to specific memories and creating emotional responses like joy or chills, often involving dopamine release.  Music reduces stress by lowering cortisol (the primary stress hormone), slowing heart rate, and reducing blood pressure. It triggers the brain to release feel-good chemicals like dopamine and serotonin, which improve mood and promote relaxation.  Music aids reading by enhancing phonological awareness, improving focus, and strengthening memory through rhythm, rhyme, and structural patterns. It acts as a multisensory tool that helps children decode sounds and understand language. Generally, the left hemisphere analyzes the structure of music, while the right processes emotion and tone.
