10 Psychology Inspired Electronic Music Tracks To Make You Think, Feel And Move!
Carefully curated high-energy songs that make you say — “Hey, I resonate!”
Like many Gen X’ers, I grew up enthralled with electronic, dance, and house music. Even now, at 45 years of age, I still appreciate a great track when I hear one. Lyrics, tone, and stylistic substance matter more to me now than ever before.
Music serves as a backdrop to our lives, capturing a snapshot in time. Like fragrance, when a song plays that capture a moment in our history, we are transported back to that time and place.
Yet, I am most intrigued when electronic music moves beyond entertainment and tells a deeper psychological story in a powerful, memorable way. Tracks that speak to the artist's mental health or state of being, music with a heightened sense of lyrical ingenuity allow us to share the musician’s experience.
The following ten curated tracks enlighten and elevate our psyche while injecting toe-tapping and head nodding. Each track includes a brief history of the song (if known), unique lyrics, and the details of my attachment to the piece.
Can psychology and music exist in the electronic realm? You be the judge.
