Music is one of the biggest forms of media, and with the internet giving listeners easier access to what they love, how do people form their personal music taste in the first place? In this episode hosts Evan Frederiksen and James Burnard explore the psychology behind why people are drawn to different genres of music. The discussion also examines how people who say they “listen to everything” relate to music, and how age influences musical preferences beyond the age of music someone listens. Joining the conversation is Bruce Ferwerda, a professor from Jönköping University who has done research on music preference, and Arkade, a DJ who will share their perspective as someone who creates the medium people listen to.
