The Sound Of Sadness

In episode 113 of the Sound In Marketing podcast, we discuss the psychology of sound and why it can sound happy or sad.

What if we could better monitor our emotional intake by better analyzing what "sad music" really sounds like to an individual? What if music could help save us from depression? 

This episode was a re-boot from an article with the same name that I wrote back in 2021.

Thanks to Artlist’s library of killer musicians for Beach Day by Max Hixon (my summertime example) and Catnip Addict by Bunker Buster (my lowkey summertime example). I also snuck my own tracks in there. Anthem as my happy music example and Heartbreak as my devastatingly depressing example. Oh and those chords progressing from sad to happy, that was me too.
