Why does music (especially cinematic, grand, or inspirational ones) trigger goosebumps?

Was just listening to Hans Zimmer’s Time, which inspired this question.

It’s called Frisson. They believe only 30% of the population experiences it. For me, it’s goosebumps on the arms, hair stands up, and I get an orgasmic tingling up my neck through my head. Its really close to the feeling of mdma. I don’t take it for granted.

Edit: Interesting to read y’all get it from other things than music! I never considered that. Mine triggers from my fav edm or emo rock tracks
