🤔 probably Idk Maybe it’s best to be well rounded with a lot of different types of music, exposure to it all…. And let the child decide what type of music they prefer? I fall in that camp letting my kid discover what she likes instead of pushing a certain thing on her…

My kids listened to classical music early. My 7-year-old doesn't seem to hear certain music as "bad" when it doesn't have enough energy, or isn't quick in tempo. I remember being very musically picky as a kid, and they aren't. The only music my kids don't like is rap. 🤷

Would you rather expose your child to a 1000 hours of classical music or a 1000 hours of mumble rap? You will come to the right conclusion.

Probably children who listen to classical or jazz music (richer in rhythms, harmonies, and melodies) tend to develop greater musical sensitivity, greater cultural flexibility, and greater aesthetic appreciation.

Correlation but not causation. Did the child who listened to classical music also happen to read more and engage in more critical thinking?

likely, but it might not even be due to the music but the neural composition that predisposes them to choose to listen to that type of music. Same would likely apply if they were born of parents who expose them to that kind of music.

Each note individually or in terms of intervals and harmony? What humans tend to find most satisfying is music with simple ratios (common in all forms across the world), at least in the short term. The more complex the ratio between the notes, the more we tend to perceive as noise. Great composers know how to push the listener, develop and keep that tension and releasing for emotional impact. Exposure to a wide range of ratios is subliminal maths. Most pop music tends not to venture into these territories (and in fact has got ever simpler since the 1950s). To the OP, I’d say introducing more complex rhythms and harmonies would be a very good idea. Doesn’t have to be as binary as classical vs mumble though. I grew up listening to lots of jazz and prog thanks to my dad but still love Wu Tang…

I'm sure there will be difference. Mumble rap is fiat, classical music is Bitcoin. nostr:nevent1qqs8cz5440664pq9wjznzn98q00n7a88tkdv9ek5me05fd5kawjprwcpzemhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuurjd9kkzmpwdejhgq3qcj8znuztfqkvq89pl8hceph0svvvqk0qay6nydgk9uyq7fhpfsgsxpqqqqqqz288kt4

I’m not a music theory expert but have a good understanding of some of the physics as a sound engineer. It’s a fascinating subject. Every living thing vibrates and it obviously affects us in numerous ways, music being the most obvious in that it can alter or enhance mood just by listening. There’s also some stuff about frequencies written about that just doesn’t hold weight. There’s a theory about western tuning, that 432Hz is more in tune with the universe than the standard 440Hz. It’s interesting but when you look into the maths it just doesn’t stack up so I’m both interested and wary on theories around frequencies (I’ve also experimented with some of these in music I’ve made over the years). I’m open minded on the subject, I think there’s a lot we don’t know about how vibrations affect us and the world around us. Fascinating subject!

Absolutely. There is such thing as music IQ; it shapes you. “Stand guard at the door of your mind.” — Jim Rohn “Don’t let anybody dump garbage into your mental factory.” — Jim Rohn

Do you think there is a difference between a person that comes to btc in 2025 or 2026? Maybe 2025 is a time for classical and 2026 is the time for mumbled rap as citadels crumble.

I think it does. Classical music will lead to cognitively superiority. But I also think that a lot of rap music is also a powerful subconscious affirmation; depending on the artist you hear a lot about crime or money – if you listen to rap that is only about crime, then you'll probably end up with less-defined ethics and perhaps as a criminal. But rap about money, wealth, beautiful girls will make it more likely that you actually strive and have those things.

Better even, enable your kid to not just passively listen/consume (any) music but get them to learn an instrument. This opens up worlds. Po(hard)W, team playing, listening to other instruments (people) in their team; it connects synapses in their brain, other people don’t develop; gets them to find (and accept) their earned place in a band/ensemble/orchestra - music is a language, nuances are key, it teaches them to actively listen /respond. They can develop a new kind of creativity, problem solving, patience, widens the horizon, history, societies,… And so much more. 💥 Follow this to start with: npub1jjmn7wwhz0aat6d7czxwnqz4ula490smzx3ayvuxxpey493ua8lsmd2ph5
