Depends who's doing it the likes of System 7, Orbital and Speedy J (Jochem Paap) are great exponents of the more scientific side of this type of music.

It'll be interesting to see what this study unearths as the scientists are also looking at the lyrical content of music. I wonder if those of us who don't really pay a great deal of attention to lyrics (myself included) subliminally absorb the message behind a song, if there is one. On that note I guess we can exclude the likes of Duran Duran whos lyrical content is an absolute nonsense

I'm sure they'll discover that each of us will react differently to the various musical components: moods, timbres, grooves or whatever and that there's no set formula. Joe Bloggs may react well to listening to 6 hours of Brian Eno's droning noises for example but it would just make me really hacked off, I'd rather listen to the Goombay Dance Band!
