Some post by Tima about our brains made mine stir. If my reference for music is a radio. And a crappy one at that. But I have all sorts of good time, bad times associated to events and music of the time played over a junk system, why wouldn't that same music over an Alexa not stir an emotional reaction.
I don't know where this idea music has to be real or natural or believable to elicit emotions came from. Or maybe I'm misinterpreting. Maybe no one said that. But if it has been said, and people are striving for natural or real, where did the idea that would make the music emotional come from. Doesn't the emotions associated with music come from the events that were tied to the music. And those events might be tied to a really bad car stereo. Wouldn't then music played over a system that mimics the era of my life associated with deep feelings rise forth better when played back by a similar system.
