Rapid modulation in music supports attention in listeners with attentional difficulties [PDF]
Communications BiologyBackground music is widely used to sustain attention, but little is known about what musical properties aid attention. This may be due to inter-individual variability in neural responses to music.

Locality in music and syntax: a minimalist analysis of modulation
Quaderni di Linguistica e Studi Orientali, 2020 The article provides an analysis of tonicization and modulation in western tonal music within the framework of minimalist syntax. In the spirit of Katz and Pesetsky’s 2011 Identity Thesis for Language and Music, I argue that syntactic notions such as ...

The strength of neural entrainment to electronic music correlates with proxies of altered states of consciousness [PDF]
Frontiers in Human NeuroscienceIn electronic music events, the driving four-on-the-floor music appears pivotal for inducing altered states of consciousness (ASCs). While various physiological mechanisms link repetitive auditory stimuli to ASCs, entrainment—a brainwave synchronization ...

Rhythms of relief: perspectives on neurocognitive mechanisms of music interventions in ADHD [PDF]
Frontiers in PsychologyAttention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is a prevalent neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by multiple neurocognitive deficits. Research suggests that music interventions, both active and passive, may be an effective complementary method of

EEG microstates dynamics of happiness and sadness during music listening [PDF]
Frontiers in Human NeuroscienceThe human brain naturally responds to music, with happy music enhancing attention and sad music aiding emotion regulation. However, the specific electroencephalogram (EEG) microstates linked to these cognitive and emotional effects remain unclear.

The human auditory system uses amplitude modulation to distinguish music from speech.
PLoS BiologyMusic and speech are complex and distinct auditory signals that are both foundational to the human experience. The mechanisms underpinning each domain are widely investigated. However, what perceptual mechanism transforms a sound into music or speech and
