ELI5- Why does different music make us feel different feelings?
In: Biology
There really isn’t a good ELI5 for this, but essentially, music is an aesthetic experience in the same way that reading a fictional story is an aesthetic experience. Neither are “real”, but we can feel different emotions based on our ability to relate them to our lived experiences. As to why specific sounds cause different emotions, that is largely influenced by your culture.
