Monkeys prefer metal to Mozart
The article says a recent study shows that monkey’s somehow found heavy metal music relaxing. The researchers wrote music specifically for monkeys, imitating the sounds they make in their calls and cries. The conclusion?
The results suggests music is species-specific. It may be used to communicate an emotional state and try to induce that same emotional state in the listener, Snowdon said.
I’m just wanting to know if they played ‘Hey, Hey, it’s the Monkees’ for them?
